“UNTARGETING” AUTOANTIBODIES USING GENOME EDITING, A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT STUDY
2022-10-30
Abstract excerpt
Autoantibodies are useful biomarkers of autoimmune diseases and some have direct pathogenic role. Current standard therapies for elimination of specific B/plasma-cell clones are not fully efficient. In this proof-of-concept study, we used the CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing system to knockout V(D)J rearrangements that produce pathogenic autoantibodies in vitro . HEK293T cell lines were established with stable express...
