Editing cells’ genomes with CRISPR-Cas9 might increase the risk that the altered cells, intended to treat disease, will trigger cancer, two studies published on Monday warn — a potential game-changer for the companies developing CRISPR-based therapies. Source: www.statnews.com/ In the studies, published in Nature Medicine, scientists found that cells whose genomes are successfully edited by CRISPR-Cas9 have the … Continue reading A Serious New Hurdle for CRISPR: Edited Cells Might Cause Cancer, Find Two Studies
