The CNIO reprograms CRISPR system in mice to eliminate tumor cells without affecting healthy cells
(Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncol ó gicas (CNIO)) CNIO researchers destroyed Ewing's sarcoma and chronic myeloid leukaemia tumor cells by using CRISPR to cut out the fusion genes that cause them. For the first time, fusion genes have been selectively and efficiently removed using CRISPR. These genes are attracting a great deal of interest from the research community because they are unique to the tumor cell and are therefore excellent targets for the development of future drugs that only attack the tumor and are harmless for healthy cells.
