Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

CRISPR is a programmable genome editing method that has transformed genome engineering and advanced cancer research. Various engineering iterations of CRISPR, including base and prime editing, facilitate more accurate and adaptable genomic manipulations, opening new frontiers in understanding and combating cancer. This review emphasizes CRISPR's significant influence in cancer biology, from its ability to accurately recreate somatic mutations in cellular and animal models to its application in developing precise diagnostic tools. We also examine advancements in cancer therapies, particularly through the ex vivo engineering of robust chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells that perform effectively in restrictive tumor microenvironments. Lastly, we consider the existing limitations of CRISPR-Cas systems and outline future directions that could further enhance the application of this powerful technology against cancer.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
