A Genome-engineered Bioartificial Implant for Autoregulated Anti-Cytokine Drug Delivery
2019-01-30
Abstract excerpt
Biologic drug therapies are effective treatments for autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but may cause significant adverse effects, as they are administered continuously at high doses that can suppress the immune system. Using CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing, we engineered stem cells containing a synthetic gene circuit expressing biologic drugs to antagonize interleukin-1 (IL-1) or tumor necrosis fact...
