1 今年3月,Cell子刊《Molecular Cell》上新发了一篇题为“Introducing a Spectrum of Long-Range Genomic Deletions in Human Embryonic Stem Cells Using Type I CRISPR-Cas”的文章,揭示了一种新版本的CRISPR工具——I型CRISPR-Cas3,证实其可以剪切人类细胞中的长片段DNA。
His risky and medically unnecessary work stunned the world and defied prior calls by my colleagues and me, and by the U.S. National Academies of Sciences and of Medicine, for an effective moratorium on human germline editing.
it became clear that although human embryo editing is relatively easy to achieve, it is difficult to do well and with responsibility for lifelong health outcomes.
尽管人类胚胎的编辑相对容易实现,但要做好并为受试者终身健康负责是很困难的。
Ensuring responsible use of genome editing will enable CRISPR technology to improve the well-being of millions of people and fulfill its revolutionary potential.
