AAV.U7snRNA-Mediated Gene Therapy Vectors to Skip Exon 18 in Patients with DMD
TS-005790 — This novel AAV.U7snRNA‑mediated exon‑skipping gene‑therapy platform targets exon 18 of the DMD gene to treat Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies. Unlike micro‑dystrophin approaches currently in clinical development, this strategy leverages antisense sequences embedded within optimized U7snRNA cassettes to modulate endogenous DMD splicing and restore native dystrophin expression.

Reducing AAV Genome Truncations by Introducing G-T Mismatches in DNA Sequence
TS-005788 — This improved AAV vector–design strategy significantly reduces genome truncations caused by micro‑RNA–derived DNA hairpins during viral replication, introducing targeted point mutations within the DNA sequence encoding the micro‑RNA passenger strand. This innovation improves AAV batch quality, enhances efficacy and safety of micro‑RNA–based gene therapies, and reduces manufacturing cost.

Single-User Operated Fine-Controlled Volume Transfer (SOFT)
TS-005785 — This hands‑free dispensing device generates a refillable air reservoir to enable precise, controlled dispensing or withdrawal of small volumes of material by a single operator. This technology would have multiple applications in embryology where mouth pipettes are still quite common, perfusions of animal tissue with fixatives, dyes, etc.

Using Skin Patches with DNA-Methylation-Guided Dosage of Ghrelin and Leptin to Treat Anorexia Nervosa
TS-005784 — This novel, personalized hormone‑replacement therapy for anorexia nervosa (AN) simultaneously targets dysregulated ghrelin and leptin signaling using a transdermal skin‑patch delivery system. This represents a new device and treatment paradigm for AN, introducing both a previously undescribed hormone combination therapy and a precision‑medicine framework that tailors treatment based on epigenetic biomarkers, with strong translational potential supported by an existing, genomically characterized patient cohort.

Mouse Model of Aifm1-V67Ter
TS-005780 — A novel mouse model engineered to recapitulate a human disease–associated variant in AIFM1, in which a valine at position 67 is replaced by a premature stop codon. This model provides a valuable in vivo platform for studying the mechanisms underlying AIFM1‑associated disease and for evaluating potential therapeutic strategies.
