  1. A one-time snip of a key #gene lowered heart-clogging #highcholesterol by 50% over a year with no adverse effects, scientists have reported.
    Study was extremely small — only 15 patients with dangerously high cholesterol that did not respond to medication. The research was designed to test the safety of five different doses of a gene-altering infusion delivered by #CRISPR-Cas9, a biological scissor which cuts a targeted genetic location to modify or turn a gene on or off.
