Researchers have developed a gene-editing treatment for prion disease that extends lifespan by about 50 percent in a mouse model of the fatal neurodegenerative condition. The treatment ...

Gene editing using base editing has been shown to extend the lifespan of mice with prion disease by approximately 50%. This approach involves a single-letter DNA change that reduces prion protein ...

The mathematical model also predicted health benefits such as lowered levels of “bad” cholesterol in people prone to heart disease—an idea which is currently being studied in a gene editing clinical ...

Some promising updates are there." However, Srivastava said there may be another way forward—gene editing, which is different from genetic modification because it does not insert DNA sequences ...

Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have developed a gene-editing treatment for prion disease that extends lifespan by about 50 percent in a mouse model of the fatal ...

Gene editing involves changing the sequence of DNA using specific enzymes which can cut DNA at a precise location, thus permitting the removal, addition, or replacement of genetic information ...

The same is now possible in gene editing. Rather than employ separate tools for editing genes and regulating their expression, these distinct goals can now be combined into a single tool that can ...
