Drug resistance is a major hurdle prohibiting effective treatment of many diseases, including cancer. Using model-guided designs, Leighow et al. engineered a dual-switch selection gene drive system custom designed to combat drug-resistant tumors. By demonstrating remarkable killing efficacies in preclinical models using human non-small lung cancer cells in vitro and in mice, this work describes an attractive mindset to develop next-generation anticancer therapies.
耐药性是阻碍许多疾病(包括癌症)有效治疗的主要障碍。Leighow 等人使用模型指导设计,设计了一种双开关选择基因驱动系统,专门用于对抗耐药性肿瘤。通过在体外使用人类非小细胞肺癌细胞和在小鼠中进行的临床前模型中证明了显著的杀伤效果,这项工作描述了一种有吸引力的思维方式,以开发下一代抗癌疗法。
