Abstract excerpt
Genome and RNA editing modalities have revolutionized precision gene therapy, offering a safer alternative to traditional gene replacement approaches. Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a compelling model for precision medicine because the disease mechanism is well defined-mutations in a single gene are responsible for both liver and lung pathology. In this review, we summarize the current preclinical and...
