Every face is unique. Genetics helps to determine our features, but sometimes genes have errors which, in early fetal ...
Scientists from Kolkata-based Bose Institute have created GlowCas9 -- a CRISPR protein that lights up while performing gene editing -- to help boost treatment of genetic diseases and cancer, said the ...
CRISPR Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CRSP) gains visibility as biotechnology activity aligns with broader movements across the Nasdaq ...
In a major step forward for cancer care, researchers at ChristianaCare's Gene Editing Institute have shown that disabling the NRF2 gene with CRISPR technology can reverse chemotherapy resistance in ...
Scientists used CRISPR to disable the NRF2 gene, restoring chemotherapy sensitivity in lung cancer cells and slowing tumor growth. The technique worked even when only a fraction of tumor cells were ...
NEW ORLEANS, LA—An investigational CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing therapy that targets angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3), which has a role in regulating lipid metabolism, appears to safely lower levels ...
Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) inhibits lipoprotein and endothelial lipases. ANGPTL3 loss-of-function genetic variants are associated with decreased levels of low-density lipoprotein ...
Development of bespoke therapies has been a driving goal in medical research. This year, the announcement of the first patient treated with personalized CRISPR therapy, Baby KJ, highlights this ...
Northwestern scientists have developed a new nanostructure that supercharges CRISPR’s ability to safely and efficiently enter cells, potentially unlocking its full power to treat genetic diseases. By ...
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 ...
Cutting-edge gene editing technology could eradicate Down syndrome, according to Japanese scientists. Down syndrome, which causes a range of developmental differences and affects 1 in 700 newborns in ...
