Using prime editing, NCF1 mutation is corrected in a 19-year-old with chronic granulomatous disease, an inherited immune disorder, marking a gene therapy milestone.
Gene editing refers to the precise alteration of an organism's DNA sequence at a specific locus. In cancer treatment, this technology is leveraged to modify the genetic makeup of cancer cells, either ...
Gene-editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 have many uses in the area of food and agriculture. They can combat persistent drought and disease, and improve the colour and nutritional content of food ...
An infant with a rare metabolic disease became the world’s first patient to be treated with a personalized CRISPR gene-editing treatment in a landmark study between Penn Medicine and the Children’s ...
