Around 2018–19, there was not a bigger science and ethical story than the debate over heritable human genome editing (HHGE) and the scandal over the “CRISPR babies.” The scientist, He Jiankui, who ...
Imagine building a designer baby like a plushie toy in a mall. Genetic editing may offer parents this, soon. But is it okay?
Same cuts, different responses Gene editing uses a protein called Cas9 as molecular scissors to cut targeted DNA and change its sequence. In the new study, the scientists discovered that gene editing ...
There are an estimated 6,000 Mendelian diseases, most of which still lack cures. Gene editing is an essential technology for studies aimed at generating data about disease-causing gene mutations and ...
A new gene-editing technique enables the correction of multiple genetic mutations simultaneously, transforming the prospects for millions living with complex inherited diseases, such as cystic ...
Scientists at the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-Tiget), Milan, have found that gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 in combination with AAV6 vectors can trigger inflammatory and ...
Cemacabtagene ansegedleucel, an allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, is being investigated in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma. The investigational allogeneic chimeric ...
