Abstract excerpt
Inherited cardiac conditions (ICCs) such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and Marfan syndrome pose significant global health challenges, often rooted in complex genetic mutations. Recent advances in gene editing, particularly the CRISPR/Cas9 system, have opened new avenues for precise, personalized interventions. This review examines the current landscape of gene editing in cardiology, with emphasis on its...
