Gene therapy could potentially cure genetic diseases but it remains a challenge to package and deliver new genes to specific cells safely and effectively. Existing methods of engineering one of the most commonly used gene-delivery vehicles, adeno-associated viruses (AAV), are often slow and inefficient.
Breakthrough metabolomic aging score that predicts mortality better than traditional methods
Researchers developed a metabolomic aging score using NMR biomarkers that predicts short-term mortality and disease risk more accurately than other aging metrics.
