Advances in Gene Editing Technologies in Healthcare
Advancements in gene editing technology are boosting its adoption in various fields, including healthcare, diagnostics, agriculture, and industrial biotechnology. CRISPR, ZFNs, and TALENs are examples of technologies that have revolutionized the gene editing field. Moreover, with constant research efforts, new technologies such as base editing, prime editing, twin prime editing, and PASTE have emerged.
The adoption of gene editing technologies is focused on therapeutics and diagnostics, with CRISPR being the most widely used technology due to the numerous advantages it offers.
Immuno-oncology, blood disorders, and neuro-disorders are just a few of the diseases that gene editing technology targets. In addition, cardiovascular and viral diseases are intriguing areas that gene editing technology has the potential to treat.
A growth driver is the rising need for precise and targeted treatment for currently incurable diseases. Most gene editing companies use CRISPR technology for therapeutic and diagnostic development, mainly because CRISPR has the highest IP and is the most researched technology.
Companies are actively working to overcome the challenges associated with CRISPR technology, which has resulted in the development of novel delivery technologies, new miniaturized Cas molecules, and nuclease expression control. All these advancements accelerate the adoption of gene editing technologies. Increased venture capital and government funding are other factors driving the growth of these technologies.
