Ethical and regulatory aspects of genome editing.
Gene editing is a rapidly developing area of biotechnology in which the nucleotide sequence of the genome of living cells is precisely changed. The use of genome-editing technologies to modify various types of blood cells, including hematopoietic stem cells, has emerged as an important field of therapeutic development for hematopoietic disease. Although these technologies offer the potential fo...
متن کاملRegulatory uncertainty over genome editing.
We are at the dawn of a new paradigm in plant breeding. Classical approaches to crop improvement based on hybridization and selection can now be complemented by targeted genome editing that exploits knowledge of specific gene sequences in a systematic way. Unlike conventional genetic modification that results from the insertion of large pieces of exogenous DNA, genome editing exploits newly dis...
متن کاملEthical Aspects of Multiple Pregnancy
The rate of multiple pregnancy has dramatically increased during the past decades, along with the diffusion of assisted reproduction technology (ART). Multiple pregnancy entail an increased risk of, at times life threatening, maternal complications i.e. pre-eclampsia, eclampsia or abruptio placenta, of serious neonatal hazards, i.e. extreme prematurity or growth retardation, as well as deleteri...
متن کاملEthical Issues in Genome Editing using Crispr/Cas9 System
This article reviews ethical issues related to genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 system. The use of CRISPR/ cas9 revives many previous social and ethical issues with humans, other organisms and the environment, such as taking into account the non-maleficence principle in risk assessment, genome editing in germline, safety issues to avoid ecological impairment or the possible use of the technique...
متن کاملEthical Aspects of Breast Cancer Treatment
