In Major Breakthrough, Mice Created With Two Fathers And No Mother Reach Adulthood
By using embryonic stem cell engineering, the researchers were able to reprogram the imprinted genes, effectively allowing the mice to develop with genetic material from two fathers.

Human Outer Ears May Have Evolved from Ancient Fish Gills, Study Finds
Human outer ears may have evolved from the cartilage in ancient fish gills, according to recent research. Gene-editing experiments demonstrated a genetic link between fish gills and mammalian ears, with findings suggesting this transformation dates back millions of years. Researchers tested genetic enhancers in zebrafish, mice, and lizards, uncover...

AI Unlocks “DNA Grammar” for Targeted Gene Editing, Enhancing Gene Therapy, and More
Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory, Broad Institute, and Yale University use AI to identify DNA sequences that control gene activation in specific cells. This AI model decodes patterns in DNA regions called cis-regulatory elements (CREs), guiding synthetic DNA switches for cell-specific gene activity. Early testing in animal models showed succes...

Innovative mRNA Delivery Technique Could Correct Genetic Disorders Before Birth
A recent study from UC Davis and UC Berkeley has unveiled a groundbreaking mRNA delivery method capable of editing genes in fetal brain cells. By administering mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles, researchers successfully targeted genetic disorders such as Angelman syndrome before birth. This approach, which minimizes risks of inflammation, of...

Profluent Announces AI Gene Editor Generator OpenCRISPR to Enable Creating Bespoke Cures for Diseases
Profluent, a California-based artificial intelligence (AI)-first protein design company, announced its AI model that can generate CRISPR-like proteins that do not occur in nature on Tuesday. CRISPR or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats is a complex containing important proteins that scientists can use for precise gene editing...

New Study Might Lead to New Therapeutic Approach for Treating Alzheimer’s Disease
Researchers have used a new CRISPR technology that enables them to control these microglia cells. This, according to the team, can lead to a new approach to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The team geared up to detect the genes that were responsible for specific states of the microglial activity. With this, they could switch the genes on and ...

New Research Suggests Gene Therapy Could Be Used To Treat Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome
Postnatal gene therapy may be able to prevent or repair many of the harmful effects of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome, a rare genetic condition, according to researchers at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. In an animal model of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome, researchers discovered that restoring lost gene activity eliminates numerous clinical in...
