CRISPR-Directed Gene Editing as a Method to Reduce Chemoresistance in Lung Cancer Cells.
Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)(2023)
摘要
We are advancing a novel strategy for the treatment of solid tumors by employing CRISPR-directed gene editing to reduce levels of standard of care required to halt or reverse the progression of tumor growth. We intend to do this by utilizing a combinatorial approach in which CRISPR-directed gene editing is used to eliminate or significantly reduce the acquired resistance emerging from chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy. We will utilize CRISPR/Cas as a biomolecular tool to disable specific genes involved in the sustainability of resistance to cancer therapy. We have also developed a CRISPR/Cas molecule that can distinguish between the genome of a tumor cell in the genome of a normal cell, thereby conferring target selectivity onto this therapeutic approach. We envision delivering these molecules by direct injection into solid tumors for the treatment of squamous cell carcinomas of the lung, esophageal cancer, and head and neck cancer. We provide experimental details and methodology for utilizing CRISPR/Cas as a supplement to chemotherapy to destroy lung cancer cells.
