Scientists Control #Human #DNA with #Electricity in 'Leap Forward', Study Reports
In a novel experiment, researchers were able to trigger #insulin production in human #cells by sending electrical currents through an “electrogenetic” interface that activates targeted #genes. Future applications of this interface could be developed to deliver therapeutic doses to treat a wide range of conditions, including #diabetes, by directly controlling human DNA with electricity.

Scientists have discovered a way to control human genes with electricity, using tiny electrodes and nanoparticles. This technique could potentially treat various diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s, by switching on or off the genes that are involved in these conditions. The researchers hope that this method will be safer and more precise than other gene therapies, such as CRISPR. #genes #electricity #therapy https://www.sciencealert.com/experiment-reveals-human-genes-can-be-controlled-with-electricity

Though the feat may seem like the stuff of #scienceFiction, take note: It is not the harbinger of virgin births in humans."

Coffee ⏚ · @coffee
27 followers · 191 posts · Server g33ks.coffeeA large problem in treating #cancer is that tumor cells can break loose and travel through the body, founding new tumors. This is known as #metastasis. A single tumor can usually be operated, but when they start growing all over, the cancer becomes very hard to fight.
Scientists have now uncovered a part of the mechanism that makes those tumor cells travel. There's a #protein known as #GRP78 that normally hangs out in a part of the cell called the endoplasmatic reticulum, where it helps large proteins to fold the right way. However, when the cell is under stress, or becomes cancerous, GRP78 can travel to the cell's nucleus and turn certain #genes on and off. Several of those genes control the cell's willingness to travel.
This discovery opens up new avenues of #research and possible treatments.
