Imprecision Medicine: A One-Size-Fits-Many Approach for Muscle Dystrophy
Abstract
There is still no curative treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Young et al. (2016) demonstrate a genome editing approach applicable to 60% of DMD patients with CRISPR/Cas9 using one pair of guide RNAs.
