Naked antisense oligonucleotides access the cytosol during early endocytic trafficking

E Sitarska, Anand Saminathan, Gustavo Scanavachi…·Tomas L. Kirchhausen

This study tracks antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) through endocytic trafficking, finding that productive escape occurs early in endosomes before sequestration in late compartments.

How endosomal PIKfyve inhibition prevents viral membrane fusion and entry

Nicholas Chow, Gustavo Scanavachi, Anand Saminathan, Tomas L. Kirchhausen

This paper shows that inhibiting PIKfyve causes endosomal swelling, blocking viral entry by preventing fusion and genome release, while sparing VSV-G viruses.
