Parkinson's disease (PD) is a multifactorial disease caused by irreversible progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons (DANs). Recent studies have reported the successful conversion of astrocytes into DANs by repressing polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1), which led to the rescue of motor symptoms in a chemically-induced mouse model of PD. However, follow-up studies have questioned the validity of this astrocyte-to-DAN conversion model.

Genome or prime editing has become a promising tool for the treatment of hereditary disorders affecting the inner retina, such as dominant optic neuropathies. In vivo delivery of gene editors, such as Cas9, is typically achieved using recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors, which have a broad range of cellular tropisms and are well tolerated following intravitreal administration. Owing to the large size of gene editing constructs and the limited carrying capacity of rAAV (<5.

Modern genetic engineering technologies, such as base editing and prime editing (PE), have proven to provide the efficient and reliable genome editing tools that obviate the need for donor templates and double-strand breaks (DSBs) introduced in DNA. Relatively new, they quickly gained recognition for their accuracy, simplicity, and multiplexing capabilities. The review summarizes the new literature on the technologies and considers their architecture, methods to create editors, specificity, efficiency, and versatility.

CRISPR-based gene editing technology theoretically allows for precise manipulation of any genetic target within living cells, achieving the desired sequence modifications. This revolutionary advancement has fundamentally transformed the field of biomedicine, offering immense clinical potential for treating and correcting genetic disorders. In the treatment of most genetic diseases, precise genome editing that avoids the generation of mixed editing byproducts is considered the ideal approach.
