CRSP (-$6.33 or -11.05%), EDIT (-$2.89 or -8.17%) and NTLA (-$2.89 or -8.17%) at Tuesday’s mid-day
Yet another “shuffle” to the downside… as I had stated, it ain’t over … falling precipitously in the day’s range!
Reiterating, researchers found that using CRISPR-Cas9 to edit DNA in mouse cells and in a human differentiated cell line caused extensive unintended changes in DNA sequences that were relatively far away from the target DNA sequence. Those other unintended changes could potentially cause cancer or other diseases.
It's certainly concerning that using CRISPR-Cas9 could result in unintended DNA changes. This idea is akin to going into surgery for a tonsillectomy and ending up with one of your kidneys removed inadvertently. Not a good situation <MotleyFool>.
CRISPR-Cas9 had been touted as the biotech discovery of the century. CRISPR-Cas9 might have potential, but also comes with huge risks!
As I had stated, the “unanswered question is, what happens to distant metastases even if CRISP rehoming cells successfully attack the original tumor?”
Reiterating, “Would you bet your life and your current portfolio on a mouse model; it’s always a game of “truth or consequences!”

One wonders WHY there has been NO response from "infected" down trending companies?
