RNA-Targeting CRISPR/CasRx system relieves disease symptoms in Huntington’s disease models
13 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: HD is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of CAG repeats in the HTT. Silencing the expression of mutated proteins is a therapeutic direction to rescue HD patients, and recent advances in gene editing technology such as CRISPR/CasRx have opened up new avenues for therapeutic intervention. METHODS: The CRISPR/CasRx system was employed to target human HTT exon 1, resulting in...
