CRISPR/Cas9 as a therapeutic tool for triple negative breast cancer: from bench to clinics

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) is a third-generation genome editing method that has revolutionized the world with its high throughput results. It has been used in the treatment of various biological diseases and infections. Various bacteria and other prokaryotes such as archaea also have CRISPR/Cas9 systems to guard themselves against bacteriophage. Reportedly, CRISPR/Cas9-based…

Researchers Focus On Gene-Editing Technology To Kick-Start Crop Regeneration

High-value food crops that face various impediments in breeding new varieties are getting some attention from a collaboration of researchers using the CRISPR-Combo gene-editing technology. While gene-editing technology has improved crop breeding and adaptation, the process of re-growing a plant from edited cells is costly, lengthy and unpredictable. Furthermore, this process, referred to as regeneration,…
