CFTR Inactivation by Lentiviral Vector-mediated RNA Interference and CRISPR-Cas9 Genome Editing in Human Airway Epithelial Cells
25 Aug 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Polarized airway epithelial cell cultures modelling Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) defect are crucial for CF and biomedical research. RNA interference has proven its value to generate knockdown models for various pathologies. More recently, genome editing using CRISPR-Cas9 artificial endonuclease was a valuable addition to the toolbox of gene inactivation. METHODS: Calu-3...
