Beyond maps to mechanisms, this new list of comprehensive aging signatures offers biomarkers of aging status and targets to engineer for better anti-aging therapies without altering core cell identity. #CellTherapy #Aging

We integrated 405 GWAS datasets and found that CRISPRi-defined inflammaging genes are significantly enriched for heritability of aging traits across diverse organ systems. #GWAS #Aging

We discovered and validated inflammaging-specific drivers including EIF2AK2, SERPING1, HMGCS2, CMKLR1. Inhibiting them blunts IL-6-associated senescence while maintaining cell identity.

Mitochondrial pathway emerges as top hits: SAMM50 and AK2 act as pro-aging genes and CRISPRi knockdown reduces aging biomarkers on stem cells while preserving cell identity (CD29/CD44/CD73/CD90).

Two screens for two aging states: replicative senescence (RSS) and IL-6–driven inflammaging (ISS). Positive-selection CRISPRi reveals novel regulators you can modulate without breaking MSC identity to alter their aging state.

CRISPR-TO bridges a critical gap left by sequencing and imaging technologies and will greatly accelerate the functional study of spatial transcriptome in the future.

CRISPR-TO-enabled screening in primary neurons identifies Stmn2 mRNA localization as a driver of neurite outgrowth.
May 26, 2025 at 1:02 AM
In primary cortical neurons, we demonstrate that repositioned mRNAs undergo local translation, which regulates neuronal morphology and axonal regeneration.

CRISPR-TO effectively functions in primary neurons for ultra-long distance RNA transport, in which spatial transcriptomes are crucially linked to pathological processes.

It allows for inducible and reversible bidirectional RNA transport along microtubules via motor proteins.

CRISPR-TO enables targeted localization of endogenous RNAs to diverse subcellular compartments.

Spatial RNA organization has a pivotal role in diverse cellular processes and diseases. However, its functional implications remain largely unexplored due to limited technologies for perturbing endogenous RNA localization.

Applying Oligo-LiveFISH to study enhancer-promoter interaction, we found that stimulating FOS transcription led to reduced 3D distance, increased confinement, and slower dynamics between the FOS enhancer and promoter.

Combined with polymer-based dynamic modeling, Oligo-LiveFISH revealed two distinct modes of chromatin communication: 1D cis-communication, predominated at short distances (up to 300 kb), and 3D trans-communication, which is significant over long distances (> 1 Mb).

Integrated with 3D super-localization microscopy, Oligo-LiveFISH tracked genomic regions at high spatial (20-nm) and temporal (50-ms) resolution, revealing highly sub-diffusive chromatin motion consistent with fractional Brownian motion.

Oligo-LiveFISH enables the tracking of chromatin dynamics in diverse cell types, including hard-to-image cells such as primary T cells and induced neurons (iNs) derived from human embryonic stem cells.

Utilizing machine learning, we characterized key parameters of chromatin and gRNA features on imaging efficiency and established gRNA design principles for live chromatin imaging.
April 16, 2025 at 11:40 PM
To address this, we exploited approaches to generate effective gRNA pools to image non-repetitive loci by computational design, in vitro transcription, and chemical labeling, delivered as ribonucleoproteins.

The 3D chromatin dynamics is crucial for gene transcription and cellular function. However, real-time, live-cell DNA visualization remains challenging.
