Gene therapies based on the CRISPR-Cas system have already been successfully used in clinical practice. In recent years, for example, a hundred patients suffering from the hereditary disease ...
CRISPR-Cas systems are prokaryotic immune systems that confer resistance to foreign genetic elements such as plasmids and phages. CRISPR-Cas systems have been exploited for targeted genome editing.
At the same time, CRISPR Cas approaches are now entering the clinic and the very first clinical results seem to show promise.” What are your thoughts on the developing regulatory expectations ...
In a study published in the Dec. 5 issue of Nature, a team of researchers discovered a new population of neurons that is responsive to the hormone leptin. Leptin responsive neurons are important in ...
Dec. 6, 2024 — People who climb too fast or too high risk acute altitude sickness, which can lead to life-threatening hypoxic brain injury. By using in vivo electrochemistry, researchers ...
Controlling matter at the atomic level has taken a major step forward, thanks to nanotechnology research by an international team of scientists led by physicists at the University of Bath. A ...
Bacteroides species are a promising chassis for developing living therapeutics, but this application is challenged by their poorly understood protein secretion abilities. Here, the authors report ...
