据Fogarty NMF2017年10月5日[Nature,2017,550(7674):67-73.]报道,英国科学家首次在用基因编辑人类胚胎的研究中揭示了一种生育“主导基因”的作用。该研究可以帮助发现复发性流产的原因,并帮助找到更有效的生育治疗方法。当然,它也带来了伦理争议——将这种具有争议的基因编辑技术用于临床来修正缺陷甚至是增强人类胚胎是否合适。伦敦弗朗西斯·克里克研究所(Francis Crick Inslitule)的Niakan K博士主导了这项研究,该研究团队关注于受精卵 According to a report by Fogarty NMF on October 5, 2017 [Nature, 2017, 550 (7674): 67-73.] It was reported for the first time that British scientists revealed a role for the “dominant gene” in gene-editing of human embryos . The study can help identify the causes of recurrent miscarriage and help find more effective fertility treatments. Of course, it also brings about ethical controversy - the use of such controversial gene editing techniques in the clinic to correct defects and even enhance human embryos is appropriate. Dr Niakan K of Francis Crick Inslitule led the study, which focused on fertilized eggs
