Efficacy and long-term safety of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in the SOD1-linked mouse models of ALS

Deng et al. assess the effects of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing in two transgenic mouse models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for up to 2 years. They find that the genomic editing prevented the development of ALS-like pathology without any notable side-effects, which provides preclinic...
