Image-guided, noninvasive, spatiotemporal control of gene expression.
Spatiotemporal control of transgene expression is of paramount importance in gene therapy. Here, we demonstrate the use of magnetic resonance temperature imaging (MRI)-guided, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in combination with a heat-inducible promoter [heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)] for the in vivo spatiotemporal control of transgene activation. Local gene activation induced by moder...
متن کاملA Modified Consumer Inkjet for Spatiotemporal Control of Gene Expression
This paper presents a low-cost inkjet dosing system capable of continuous, two-dimensional spatiotemporal regulation of gene expression via delivery of diffusible regulators to a custom-mounted gel culture of E. coli. A consumer-grade, inkjet printer was adapted for chemical printing; E. coli cultures were grown on 750 microm thick agar embedded in micro-wells machined into commercial compact d...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal control of gene expression with pulse-generating networks.
One of the important challenges in the emerging field of synthetic biology is designing artificial networks that achieve coordinated behavior in cell communities. Here we present a synthetic multicellular bacterial system where receiver cells exhibit transient gene expression in response to a long-lasting signal from neighboring sender cells. The engineered sender cells synthesize an inducer, a...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal control of gene expression in bone-marrow derived cells of the tumor microenvironment induced by MRI guided focused ultrasound
The tumor microenvironment is an interesting target for anticancer therapies but modifying this compartment is challenging. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of a gene therapy strategy that combined targeting to bone marrow-derived tumor microenvironment using genetically modified bone-marrow derived cells and control of transgene expression by local hyperthermia through a thermo-inducible p...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal dynamics of brain activity during the transition from visually guided to memory-guided force control.
It is well established that the prefrontal cortex is involved during memory-guided tasks whereas visually guided tasks are controlled in part by a frontal-parietal network. However, the nature of the transition from visually guided to memory-guided force control is not as well established. As such, this study examines the spatiotemporal pattern of brain activity that occurs during the transitio...
