Genetic engineering has emerged as one of the powerful method in life saving technique. Some scientist have developed a technique to ward off the flaws in parent gene of embryos that can be fatal in future for the child.
Report claims itself to be the first experiment of its time that erases the mutant gene from parent , that can appear in offspring and repeat the disease of parent inherently. Some biologist says that the finding might help to correct cancer ,cystic fibrosis and dystrophy causing genetic variation.
One of the striking part of this report says is the procedure that the use is one of the controversial technique “Germ line editing”. Which has also given rise to questions against this type of experiment and also asked for banning of this type of experiments in many nations. The main reason behind their claim for banning such useful and life saving technique is the wrong use of this experiment. They also give genuine examples of the wrong use that are actually practiced . Some of them are Designer Babies ( that helps to choose the traits that a baby would have) and gender choosing ( where parents can choose the Gender of baby).
Though some powerful nation has forbidden any use of Germ line editing they are still in Use. As the one seeking such things finds the one who does and make them do so.
Some Biologist believe that Human experiments are far more different and needs to be more responsibly carried out. During a talk program , a female scientist showed her disbelief on using germ line editing to improve efficiency at fertility clinics meets the criteria laid out by the national Academics of science which urged the use of technology as last resource. She added the use might result in normal embryo. So, why not implant it.
Multinational team of geneticists, cardiologists, fertility experts and embryologists from Asian Nations studied the process and found that Over 70% result was favorable in comparison to below 50% , without the Gene editing. Previously they believed that their method rely on the healthy maternal xerox of gene as sample for correction of the mutatio. But, after intensive research ,the embryo used to make embryonic stem cell lines, stored in Nitrogen environment showed over 90% success results.
Conclusion: The report says that the experiment was successful however the use in human is still a big issue and it needs good ethical views to carry out and further proceed with this experiment.
