Gene editing, probably more than any recent other development in biotechnology, promises the possibility of cures for genetic diseases and enhancements of human capabilities, not to mention revolutionary agriculture. It involves some sort of change induced in an organism with the use of very precise alterations in its DNA. Undoubtedly, one of the most popular gene-editing tools is CRISPR-Cas9, which ...

Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterised by repetitive seizures, affecting millions worldwide. While treatments like medication and surgery exist, they rarely provide complete relief, especially for genetic epilepsy. CRISPR gene editing offers a potential breakthrough for these cases. This article reviews the potential of CRISPR in treating genetic epilepsy, current research, and the future of this therapy. An Overview: Genetic ...

Imagine a world without the pain and suffering caused by congenital blood disorders. With CRISPR—a powerful form of gene editing—that world may be closer than you think. Rewriting our genetic code has transformed optimistic dreams of treatment and cures into a current reality for some diseases. This article explores the transformative impact of CRISPR on blood-borne diseases and considers the ...

Human genome editing is a new scientific technology used to make changes in the genes of a person. It holds great potential to amply affect and, subsequently, cure a whole lot of diseases by repairing their genetic mistakes right at the roots. Technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 have been making the editing more exact, efficient, and accessible. How Does Genome Editing Work? ...
