Co-editing <i>PINK1</i> and <i>DJ-1</i> genes via AAV-delivered CRISPR/Cas9 system in adult monkey brains elicits classic Parkinsonian phenotypes

2020-09-20

Abstract excerpt

Whether direct manipulation of Parkinson’s disease (PD) risk genes in monkey brain can elicit Parkinsonian phenotypes remains an unsolved issue. Here, we employed an adeno-associated virus (AAV)-delivered CRISPR/Cas9 system to directly co-edit PINK1 and DJ-1 genes in the substantia nigra (SN) region of four adult monkey brains. After the operation, two of the monkeys exhibited all classic PD symptoms, including...
