都是“基因编辑婴儿”,为什么这例罕见病婴儿的治疗就这么广受好评?
Description
早上好!欢迎你点进来收听「3分钟科学漫游」,我们一起看看知识探索的边界在哪里!
你也许听说过,早在2018年,当时在中国南方科技大学的贺建奎,突然公布自己完成了两例父母是艾滋病患者的基因编辑婴儿,编辑了一个叫CCR5的基因,以期望婴儿在未来能避免可能的艾滋病感染,引起轩然大波,贺建奎最终背负科研界的骂名,判刑3年,直到去年才出狱。而在最近知名的医学杂志《New England Journal of Medicine.》报道了一例基于基因编辑治疗罕见病的婴儿,却得到了广泛的赞赏,为什么会有这么区别的对待?我们应该如何理解基因编辑对临床医学的应用?
