“Should a truly compelling case ever arise for the therapeutic benefit of germline modification, we encourage an open discussion around the appropriate course of action,” they added, pointing to recent discussions of mitochondrial DNA replacement “There’s an important and clear ethical boundary between genome editing in somatic cells versus in the germ line.” George Daley, a stem cell researcher at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, agrees that a public debate is importan Harvard's Luhan Yang described a human germline genetic editing experiment. Researchers hoped to obtain, from a hospital in New York, the ovaries of a woman undergoing surgery for ovarian cancer, caused by a mutation in a gene called BRCA1. Working with This method also has implications for repairing stem cells, Mello said, adding that, “We can modify the human germ line, but it’s not safe yet.” Researchers can also genetically modify organisms to model human disease for research. “We’re at a In a study published in the journal Genes and Development, University of Pennsylvania researchers have filled in details of how an enzyme, through interactions with a network of nearly two dozen other genes, protects the integrity of the germ line by Listeriosis is a life-threatening infection caused by eating food contaminated with the bacterium (germ) Listeria monocytogenes product and other products made on the same production line. The company also has reported that it has shut down that .
(FT) Engineering perfect babies Germ line engineering, the editing of DNA in embryos, is further along than anyone imagined. This has raised an ethical dilemma for scientists on how to proceed with the technology. (MIT Technology Review) The problem with The fear is that germ-line engineering takes mankind on the dangerous path to superhumans and designer babies, for those who can afford it. As Lanphier puts it, "The human species is not a laboratory rat, it is not an improved corn plant—it's a unique In a study published in the journal Genes and Development, University of Pennsylvania researchers have filled in details of how an enzyme, through interactions with a network of nearly two dozen other genes, protects the integrity of the germ line by Here it was: a technical proposal to alter human heredity. “Germ line” is biologists’ jargon for the egg and sperm, which combine to form an embryo. By editing the DNA of these cells or the embryo itself, it could be possible to eliminate disease .
