Unique Lipid Nanoparticles can Package and Deliver Gene Editing Machinery to the Liver

The genome editing technology CRISPR has emerged as a powerful new tool that can change the way we treat disease. The challenge when altering the genetics of our cells, however, is how to do it safely, effectively, and specifically targeted to the gene, tissue and organ that needs treatment. Scientists at Tufts University and the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT have developed unique nanoparticles comprised of lipids -- fat molecules -- that can package and deliver gene editing machinery specifically to the liver.
