Abstract excerpt
This study explores a novel therapeutic approach for spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA), a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation in the Androgen Receptor (AR) gene. The aim is to investigate the potential of CRISPR-Cas9 technology in targeting the mutant AR gene to inhibit its production. The objectives include assessing the accuracy and efficacy of CRISPR-Cas9 guided RNAs in silencing the mutant...
