October's SLAS Technology special issue, "Engineering Innovations for Fundamental Biology and Translational Medicine," focuses on the increasing demand for personalized medicine. In the latest article from Electronic Laboratory Neighborhood, Claire Hur, Ph.D., (Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering) guest editor of October's special issue, shares her excitement about the increasing number of researchers and engineers who are translating the developments and techniques they create in their labs to more widespread clinical workflows. "Many times you create an innovative instrument that works perfectly in your lab and never really gets translated into use where it’s most needed," she says. "We need to make tools and techniques that the clinical technician or the patient can use — not just the Ph.D. student who developed it"

Researchers have obtained the first signs of clinical benefit in an early-stage gene therapy trial for Tay-Sachs disease, according to a presentation at the European Society of Gene & Cell Therapy annual conference.
Terence R. Flotte, MD, executive deputy chancellor, provost, and dean of the University of Massachusetts School of Medicine, presented the results in Barcelona. Flotte is also the editor-in-chief of Human Gene Therapy.

Brain organoids, small pieces of the human cerebral cortex grown in the lab, are becoming valuable scientific tools. By modeling the growth of brain cells and structures, these "brains-in-a-dish," which are self-organizing tissues generated from skin or blood cells that are reprogrammed into stem cells, can allow scientists to examine early development and the processes underlying neurodevelopmental diseases.

Schizophrenia tends to run in families, which suggests it's largely inherited. But a long-running search for genes underlying this severe psychiatric condition has yielded only indirect clues. Now, by scouring the DNA of tens of thousands of people, gene hunters have for the first time nabbed a handful of rare genes that, when mutated, appear to be direct contributors to the disease — and may shed light on what goes awry in a schizophrenia patient's brain.

Chemical & Engineering News
Recent research has suggested that lactate may have regulatory effects, but the mechanism was not clear. Now, a team led by Lev Becker and Yingming Zhao of the University of Chicago shows that it may exert those effects by chemically modifying histones — the protein spools that DNA is wrapped around. The researchers used high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry to identify 28 sites at which lactate was attached to lysine residues in histone proteins.

Tissue growth and the behavior of cells can be controlled and investigated particularly well by embedding the cells in a delicate 3-D framework. This is achieved using additive 3-D printing methods — so called "bioprinting" techniques. However, this involves a number of challenges: Some methods are very imprecise or only allow a very short time window in which the cells can be processed without being damaged.

Some types of bacteria have the ability to punch holes into other cells and kill them. They do this by releasing specialized proteins called "pore-forming toxins" that latch onto the cell's membrane and form a tube-like channel that goes through it. This structure across the membrane is called a pore. Punctured by multiple PFTs, the target cell self-destructs. However, PFTs have garnered much interest beyond bacterial infections.

Hydrogen has been touted as a promising alternative to fossil fuels. However, most of the conventional industrial hydrogen production methods come with environmental issues, releasing significant amounts of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases.
Electrochemical water splitting is considered a potential approach for clean hydrogen production. Pt is one of the most commonly used catalysts to improve HER performance in electrochemical water splitting, but the high cost and scarcity of Pt remain key obstacles to mass commercial applications.
