CRISPR ‘Prime Editing’ Breakthrough Cures Genetic Liver Disease in Mice

CRISPR ‘Prime Editing’ Breakthrough Cures Genetic Liver Disease in Mice

Breaking the Genetic “Spell” of a Liver Disease Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a hereditary metabolic liver disorder where a single DNA typo disrupts the PAH enzyme that breaks down phenylalanine, an amino acid nature.com fiercebiotech.com. Without a working PAH enzyme, phenylalanine builds up to toxic levels, causing brain damage, intellectual disability, and seizures if untreated. Newborn screening identifies PKU early, and patients are put on a strict lifetime diet limiting protein (to keep blood Phe 120–360 µM) pennmedicine.org fiercebiotech.com. Even with dietary control and medications, many patients struggle – foods high in protein are largely off-limits, and even newer drugs like

Life on Mars? Visible ‘Time Crystal’, Diabetes Breakthrough and More – Science News Roundup

Life on Mars? Visible ‘Time Crystal’, Diabetes Breakthrough and More – Science News Roundup

Key Facts Space & Astronomy: Martian Life Clues and Interstellar Visitors Historic Mars discovery: NASA’s Perseverance rover has uncovered one of the most tantalizing clues yet that Mars may have harbored life. In a rock sample drilled from Jezero Crater (the site of an ancient lake), scientists detected the iron mineral vivianite and the iron sulfide greigite – substances that here on Earth often form with the help of microbes reuters.com. The sample – a reddish, fine-grained mudstone nicknamed “Sapphire Canyon” – contains strange circular patterns (ring-like “leopard spots” and dark speckles like poppy seeds) that could be fossilized microbial

Martian Life Clue, Cosmic Breakthroughs & Climate Shocks – Science News Roundup (Sept 10–11, 2025)

Key Facts Mars Rover Uncovers Possible Biosignatures in Ancient Mudstone NASA’s Perseverance rover has delivered perhaps the most tantalizing hint of Martian life yet. Scientists announced that a sedimentary rock sample nicknamed “Sapphire Canyon,” drilled from Jezero Crater, contains organic carbon and unusual mineral patterns that could be of biological origin reuters.com reuters.com. Specifically, the rover detected two minerals – vivianite (iron phosphate) and greigite (iron sulfide) – that on Earth often form when microbes interact with sediments reuters.com. These minerals, along with the rock’s fine-grained, rusty-red appearance and “leopard spot” textures, constitute what researchers call a “potential biosignature” reuters.com
