CRISPR kills HIV and eats Zika ‘like Pac-man’. Its next target? Cancer
“Last week, a group of biologists published research detailing how they hid an anti-HIV CRISPR system inside another type of virus capable of sneaking past a host’s immune system. What’s more, the virus replicated and snipped HIV from infected cells along the way. At this stage, it works in mice and rats, not people. But as a proof of concept, it means similar systems could be developed to fight a huge range of diseases—herpes, cystic fibrosis, and all sorts of cancers…”

That’s wonderful Im glad they have finally found a cure for cancer!!!
]]>Wanda Beverley Ha! Well I wouldn’t so much as call it a cure just yet, but CRISPR has certainly been making waves in battling some evasive enemies of the human body over the past few years. It’s promising…
]]>Here’s hoping!
Keep the greedy drug companies out of it and the possibilities could be endless.
]]>karen o No kidding! The crazy part is, CRISPR has gotten so cheap, at it’s core is a $75 method. There was a GREAT recent episode of Radiolab about it: https://goo.gl/UfxePE
]]>Wanda Beverley cannabis has been proven to kill and also reduce most cancers
]]>Amazing, heard a year back or so that the Cubans had a vaccine of some sort for certain lung cancers, Obama was on board but I’m sure the wack job with the rug will shut it down, just because?
