CRISPR-Cas9-mediated gene editing in human MPS I fibroblasts.
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD). It is caused by mutations in the IDUA gene, which lead to the accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans dermatan and heparan sulfate. The CRISPR-Cas9 system is a new and powerful tool that allows gene editing at precise points of the genome, resulting in gene correction through the introduction and genomic integration of a wildtype sequence. In this study, we used the CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology to correct in vitro the most common mutation causing MPS I. Human fibroblasts homozygous for p.Trp402* (legacy name W402X) were transfected and analyzed for up to one month after treatment. IDUA activity was significantly increased, lysosomal mass was decreased, and next generation sequencing confirmed that a percentage of cells carried the wildtype sequence. As a proof of concept, this study demonstrates that CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing may be used to correct causative mutations in MPS I. LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS.

Islamic Perspectives on CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Human Germline Gene Editing: A Preliminary Discussion.
The recent development of CRISPR/Cas9 technology has rekindled the ethical debate concerning human germline modification that has begun decades ago. This inexpensive technology shows tremendous promise in disease prevention strategies, while raising complex ethical concerns about safety and efficacy of the technology, human dignity, tampering with God's creation, and human genetic enhancement. Germline gene editing may result in heritable changes in the human genome, therefore the question of whether it should be allowed requires deep and careful discussion from various perspectives. This paper explores Islamic perspectives on the concerns raised and highlights the ethical principles in Islam that should be taken into consideration when assessing the permissibility of CRISPR/ Cas9-mediated human germline gene editing. As argued in this paper, human germline gene editing would be considered lawful for medical purpose under certain conditions. It should not be applied on humans until the safety and efficacy issues are resolved. Robust ethical guidelines and strict regulations are necessary to preserve human dignity and to prevent premature and misuse of the technology. Maqasid al-shariah's principles of preservation of human life, lineage, and dignity and 'preventing harm takes precedence over securing benefit' are among the guiding principles in assessing the permissibility of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated human germline editing from an Islamic perspective. Further discussions are important to address the controversies as well as to explore the related ethical principles.

Optically Controlled CRISPR-Cas9 and Cre Recombinase for Spatiotemporal Gene Editing: A Review.
CRISPR-Cas9 and Cre recombinase, two tools extensively used for genome interrogation, have catalyzed key breakthroughs in our understanding of complex biological processes and diseases. However, the immense complexity of biological systems and off-target effects hinder clinical applications, necessitating the development of platforms to control gene editing over spatial and temporal dimensions. Among the strategies developed for inducible control, light is particularly attractive as it is noninvasive and affords high spatiotemporal resolution. The principles for optical control of Cas9 and Cre recombinase are broadly similar and involve photocaged enzymes and small molecules, engineered split- and single-chain constructs, light-induced expression, and delivery by light-responsive nanocarriers. Few systems enable spatiotemporal control with a high dynamic range without loss of wild-type editing efficiencies. Such systems posit the promise of light-activatable systems in the clinic. While the prospect of clinical applications is palpably exciting, optimization and extensive preclinical validation are warranted. Judicious integration of optically activated CRISPR and Cre, tailored for the desired application, may help to bridge the "bench-to-bedside" gap in therapeutic gene editing.

Prospects and challenges of CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology in cancer research.
Cancer, one of the leading causes of death, usually commences and progresses as a result of a series of gene mutations and dysregulation of expression. With the development of clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas9 gene-editing technology, it is possible to edit and then decode the functions of cancer-related gene mutations, markedly advance the research of biological mechanisms and treatment of cancer. This review summarizes the mechanism and development of CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology in recent years and describes its potential application in cancer-related research, such as the establishment of human tumor disease models, gene therapy and immunotherapy. The challenges and future development directions are highlighted to provide a reference for exploring pathological mechanisms and potential treatment protocols of cancer.

Application of CRISPR in Filamentous Fungi and Macrofungi: From Component Function to Development Potentiality.
Fungi, particularly filamentous fungi and macrofungi, have a very powerful ability to produce secondary metabolites and can serve as excellent chassis cells for the production of enzymes or natural products of great value in synthetic biology. Thus, it is imperative to establish simple, reliable, and efficient techniques for their genetic modification. However, the heterokaryosis of some fungi and the dominance of nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) repair mechanisms in vivo have been greatly affecting the efficiency of fungal gene editing. In recent years, the CRISPR/Cas9 system has been applied as a widely used gene editing technology in life science research and has also played an important role in the genetic modification of filamentous and macrofungi. The various functional components (cas9, sgRNA, promoter, and screening marker) of the CRISPR/Cas9 system and its development, as well as the difficulties and potential of the CRISPR/Cas9 system in filamentous fungus and macrofungi, are the main topics of this paper.

Gene Disruption Using CRISPR-Cas9 Technology.
The emergence of the clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) technology provides tools for researchers to modify genomes in a specific and efficient manner. The Type II CRISPR-Cas9 system enables gene editing by directed DNA cleavage followed by either non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homology-directed repair (HDR). Here, we described the use of the Type II CRISPR-Cas9 system in detail from designing the guides to analyzing the desired gene disruption events.

The Ethics of Human Embryo Editing via CRISPR-Cas9 Technology: A Systematic Review of Ethical Arguments, Reasons, and Concerns.
The possibility of editing the genomes of human embryos has generated significant discussion and interest as a matter of science and ethics. While it holds significant promise to prevent or treat disease, research on and potential clinical applications of human embryo editing also raise ethical, regulatory, and safety concerns. This systematic review included 223 publications to identify the ethical arguments, reasons, and concerns that have been offered for and against the editing of human embryos using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. We identified six major themes: risk/harm; potential benefit; oversight; informed consent; justice, equity, and other social considerations; and eugenics. We explore these themes and provide an overview and analysis of the critical points in the current literature.

Mouse and human T cell Cas9-RNP/nucleofection-mediated gene-editing.
CRISPR/Cas9 technology has revolutionized genome editing, providing a precise and expeditious means of genetic modification. This breakthrough has enhanced our understanding of gene function, including T cell immunology. Efficient gene editing in primary T cells not only offers a robust investigative tool for dissecting gene function but also holds promise for advancing T cell-based immunotherapies, including next-generation chimeric antigen receptor T cells. In this article, we introduce a highly efficient gene editing protocol for unstimulated human CD8 T cells and unstimulated and stimulated murine CD8 T cells, utilizing transient nucleofection of ribonucleoprotein complexes composed of synthesized modified single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) and purified Cas9 protein. This protocol, initially devised for primary CD8 T cells, can be readily adapted to other primary cell cultures through optimization of nucleofection conditions as well. In essence, our method provides a practical and powerful approach for achieving precise and swift gene knockout in primary CD8 T cells.

Targeted Gene Editing in Porcine Germ Cells.
As the genetic mutations driving human disease are identified, there is an increasing need for a biomedical model that can accurately represent the disease of interest and provide a platform for potential therapeutic testing. Pigs are a better model for human disease than rodents because of their genetic and physiological similarities to humans. However, current methods to generate porcine models are both technically challenging and expensive. Germline genetic modification through gene edited spermatogonia provides an effective alternative to how these models are developed. Here, we report an improved technique of gene editing in spermatogonia of pigs using CRISPR-Cas9 to generate different edits that reflect the genotypes of human diseases.
