Gene editing technique offering hope for Duchenne Muscular dystrophyA genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness due to alterations of a protein called dystrophin that keeps muscle cells intact.:
Researchers have used CRISPR to correct muscular dystrophy in pigs Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)A genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness due to alterations of a protein called dystrophin that keeps muscle cells intact. is one of the most common and most devastating muscular diseases, greatly reducing patients’ quality of life and life expectancy. Now, researchers in Germany have managed to use the CRISPR gene-editing tool to correct the […]
