CRISPR-based CINDELA targets cancer DNA mutations selectively
A South Korean research team is developing an anticancer technology that selectively targets DNA mutations found only in ...
암세포에만 존재하는 돌연변이를 유전자가위로 찾아내 선택적으로 공격하는 항암 기술이 개발됐다. 정상세포까지 공격해 부작용을 일으키거나 암 종에 따라 효과가 달라지는 기존 항암치료의 한계를 뛰어넘는 기술이다. 이론적으로 모든 ...
Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) have produced a mutational map showing how mutations in amylin—a hormone that plays a key role in glucose regulation—affect its ...

CRISPR anticancer tech targets cancer mutations, spares healthy cells
A domestic research team is developing an anticancer technology that attacks DNA mutations found only in cancer cells while leaving normal cells unharmed. Unlike existing targeted anticancer drugs, ...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature Biotechnology, researchers in Switzerland used base and prime editing to create and analyze a wide array of variants of the epithelial growth factor ...
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a genetic disorder that causes remarkable premature aging. Most patients die ...
A lung cancer diagnosis can feel frightening. And when a family member is diagnosed, you might wonder about your own risk, prompting you to ask if lung cancer is hereditary. Smoking tobacco accounts ...
