Lipid Nanoparticles for Delivery of CRISPR Gene Editing Components
The review presents a comprehensive overview of each component of lipid nanoparticles(LNPs)and their effects on editing efficiency. It specifically highlights strategies for achieving non‐liver delivery, aiming for broader applications in gene editing. Furthermore, this review summarizes the applications of LNPs in gene editing and offers insights for ...

Abstract Background Dysfunction of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD), the second enzyme involved in heme biosynthesis, leads to two pathologies: genetic and acquired. The genetic form is an ultrarare, severe childhood‐onset disease inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, whereas the acquired form usually affects adults due to enzyme ...

Implementation of a Methodology for the Detection of Biochemical Markers in Type 1 Tyrosinemia
Foundation: hereditary tyrosinemia type I or hepato-renal tyrosinemia is an autosomal recessive disease caused by deficiency of the enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase. Due to its metabolic complexity, its confirmation requires a set of highly expensive
