Skinny Gene Coming Soon? Scientists Use CRISPR to Reduce Fat Storage in Mice - studyfinds.org

Excerpt from this article:

"Since the rise of CRISPR, the groundbreaking gene-editing technology that alters DNA sequences to enhance or quiet the expression of specific genes, scientists have sought out ways to use the tool to improve health conditions in humans. Now, according to a new study, researchers are able to use CRISPR to reduce the bodyweight of mice by a staggering 20 per cent!"

Someone once said, "When it comes to using animals for essential medical research, I don't give a rat's ass about a rat's ass.." I can't recall who said that!
