Neurodegenerative Diseases Treatment Based on CRISPR

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that is difficult to study for humans. The etiology of induced diseases is closely related to genetics neuroinflammation, mitochondrial and lysosomal dysfunction, and synaptic transport problems. The early characteristics of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are cognitive decline, behavioral changes, and language deficits. Subsequently, the patient developed comprehensive amnesia and decreased motor function, with death typically occurring within 9 years after diagnosis. CRISPR Cas9 direct therapy has been used to repair pathogenic gene mutations and as a research object or carrier for disease simulation experiments. Neuroscientists want to edit target genes and their transcripts through CRISPR/Cas9. CRISPR technology can indirectly intervene in mitochondrial autophagy to determine the regulation of the etiology of PD. Targeted activation of SAM to produce dopamine (DA) to improve motor behavior in rats. It can also mediate the allele disruption of the Swedish APP used to suppress the initial symptoms of AD. And by weakening the app-β-splitting while enhancing apps with neuroprotective effects can reduce A β the generation and manipulation of starch protein pathways control AD. The Guangxi Bama miniature pig cultivated through CRISPR/Cas9 is expected to become a large-scale animal model for studying human neurological diseases. CRISPR technology can become a reliable tool for humans to solve mutated gene diseases.
