CRISPR/Cas9 silences gene associated with high cholesterol

CRISPR/Cas9 silences gene associated with high cholesterol Biomedical engineers have used a CRISPR/Cas9 genetic engineering technique to turn off a gene that regulates cholesterol levels in adult mice, leading to reduced blood cholesterol levels and gene repression lasting for six months after a single treatment. This marks the first time researchers have delivered CRISPR/Cas9 repressors for targeted therapeutic gene silencing in adult animal models. https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
