How a ‘one and done’ gene-editing treatment could lower cholesterol

(Stock photo Dreamstime) In a cutting-edge medical experiment, a small group of people who had high cholesterol despite taking conventional drugs to lower it saw significant reductions in two major risk factors for heart disease after receiving a single gene-editing treatment at the highest dose. The study, funded by CRISPR Therapeutics, is an early-stage clinical trial with just 15 participants, but it represents a step forward in a bold quest to treat common diseases with a one-time treatment that tweaks people’s genes. A host of powerful tools, propelled by the discovery of CRISPR gene editing, which won the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 2020, has sparked the dream of “one and done”...
