Exciting news! Our latest paper is out today in @ScienceTM — 'Antisense oligonucleotide–mediated MSH3 suppression reduces somatic CAG repeat expansion in Huntington’s disease iPSC–derived striatal neurons' 🧬 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @uclqsion.bsky.social @uclbrainscience.bsky.social
Antisense oligonucleotide–mediated MSH3 suppression reduces somatic CAG repeat expansion in Huntington’s disease iPSC–derived striatal neurons
MSH3 lowering by antisense oligonucleotides dose-dependently reduces CAG repeat expansions in iPSC-derived neurons from a patient with HD.
