Virus-like particles deliver gene-editing tools into Duchenne mouse model

Researchers used virus-like particles called dARC to successfully deliver the Cas9 gene editor into mouse muscle cells, restoring dystrophin expression in a model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. This approach offers a promising new method for gene delivery that overcomes limitations of current technologies and may expand to treat other conditions, including neurological diseases.
