CRISPR technology, which has traditionally relied on guide RNA molecules to locate specific genetic sequences, may be entering a new era with the development of DNA-guided systems. This paradigm shift promises more stable, precise, and versatile gene editing tools, expanding the possibilities of intervention on genetic material and opening new avenues in diagnostics, biomedical research, and advanced therapies. Regardless of …

Base editing, a refined form of the widely-known CRISPR-Cas9 technique, allows precise chemical changes to be made in a single DNA letter without cutting the DNA’s double helix. Although this technical innovation broadens the horizon for correcting certain mutations, its clinical application in human embryos for reproductive purposes is associated with serious safety risks, technical inefficiencies, and profound bioethical dilemmas. …
