This "bully" whippet has a mutation in its gene for the muscle growth-limiting factor myostatin that caused the canine to develop its striking overstuffed muscles. If you're enjoying this article, ...
CRISPR-Cas9 has, for the first time, been tested by systemic delivery in a large animal—and the results are striking. Working in a dog model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the gene editing not ...
THE bulked-up dog believed to be the world's "strongest" pup was born with a genetic mutation that gave her a bulging 24-pack and muscles like Arnold Schwarzenegger. But just like The Terminator star, ...
There’s a rare disorder that occurs when a gene mutation halts the production of myotubularin—a protein that facilitates normal muscle function. The disease, called myotubular myopathy (MTM), only ...
Eric Olson, Ph.D., founder of Exonics Therapeutics and director of UT Southwestern's Hamon Center for Regenerative Science and Medicine, has been working for the last several years to apply CRISPR ...
Researchers in China are reportedly the first to use a powerful gene editing tool to produce super-muscled dogs. The goal is to create test subjects that mimic degenerative human diseases, but the ...
From the country that brought you genetically altered micropigs, comes another announcement that pushes the limits of gene editing. A Chinese team from Guangzhou Institutes of Biomedicine and Health ...
Researchers used a gene-editing tool to repair a gene mutation in dogs with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, an important step in efforts to someday use the tool to edit DNA in people with the same fatal ...
