Woah! So the cells that accept the CRISPR modifications do so because they have dysfunctional p53 gene activation. This most likely means they are specifically the cells most likely to become tumors if they undergo any mutations triggering carcinogenesis as p53 and its helper genes are mainly responsible for killing off cells that become cancerous among other things. This means that you can use CRISPR to selectively kill these cells only since they would be the only ones that easily accept and express the CRISPR modifications. This could be ground breaking if it is not already tried. |
