Prime editing via RNA-LNP corrects multiple pathogenic ASS1 mutations and restores ureagenesis and survival in a mouse model of citrullinemia type I.

Somatosensory neurons prevent tendon degeneration by FGF1-mediated mesenchymal and macrophage regulation.

NeuroSense enables near real-time, multimodal monitoring of external ventricular drains in neurocritical care.

The urokinase receptor uPAR is highly expressed in recurrent glioblastoma and is targetable using anti-uPAR chimeric antigen receptor T cells.

Prime editing corrects a pathogenic human SCN1A mutation in mice, reducing seizure frequencies and improving survival in this GEFS+ model.

Through direct correction of a mutation causing Dravet syndrome, adenine base editing alleviates epileptic and premature mortality phenotypes in mice.

NKG2A checkpoint inhibition promotes lung fibrosis resolution.

Government departments and other public bodies in the UK must consider requests to release information about AI-produced content, regulators have confirmed. The move follows a successful request by New Scientist for the release of a minister's ChatGPT logs
