We conclude that CRISPR/Cas9 treatment induces a cell cycle arrest dependent on functional TP53 as well as Cas9 DNA binding and cleavage. Our findings suggest that transient inhibition of TP53 may increase genome editing efficiency in primary and TP53+/+ cell linesSince then the technology has been used to delete, insert and modify DNA in human cells and other animal cells grown in petri dishes. ... Between 2014 and 2015 scientists reported the successful use of CRISPR/Cas 9 in mice to eliminate muscular dystrophy and cure a rare liver disease, and to make human cells immune to HIV.Arguably, the most important advantages of CRISPR/Cas9 over other genome editing technologies is its simplicity and efficiency. Since it can be applied directly in embryo, CRISPR/Cas9 reduces the time required to modify target genes compared to gene targeting technologies based on the use of embryonic stem (ES) cells
Answer: Hello! It all depends on your take and his health stats. If you think he will be able to handle it then youd explain it in better detail. Answer any questions he may have. If you think he should wait a bit, still tell him what it is and explain to him why you think ot is best to wait.
