Abstract excerpt
Gene editing is often touted as a permanent method for correcting mutations, but its long-term benefits in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) may depend on sufficiently high editing efficiencies to halt muscle degeneration. Here, we explored the persistence of dystrophin expression following recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (rAAV6):CRISPR-Cas9-mediated multi-exon deletion/reframing in systemically...
