1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The rapid development of CRISPR genome editing technology has provided the potential to treat genetic diseases effectively and precisely. However, efficient and safe delivery of genome editors to affected tissues remains a challenge. Here, we developed luminescent ABE (LumA), a luciferase reporter mouse model containing the R387X mutation (c.A1159T) in the luciferase gene located in the Rosa26 locus of the mouse genome. This mutation eliminates luciferase activity but can be restored upon A-to-G correction by SpCas9 adenine base editors (ABEs). The LumA mouse model was validated through intravenous injection of two FDA-approved lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations consisting of either MC3 or ALC-0315 ionizable cationic lipids, encapsulated with ABE mRNA and LucR387X-specific guide RNA (gRNA). Whole-body bioluminescence live imaging showed consistent restoration of luminescence lasting up to 4 months in treated mice. Compared with mice carrying the wild-type luciferase gene, the ALC-0315 and MC3 LNP groups showed 83.5% ± 17.5% and 8.4% ± 4.3% restoration of luciferase activity in the liver, respectively, as measured by tissue luciferase assays. These results demonstrated successful development of a luciferase reporter mouse model that can be used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different genome editors, LNP formulations, and tissue-specific delivery systems for optimizing genome editing therapeutics.
