Mitochondrial DNA editing: A breakthrough in tackling neurodegenerative diseases

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) editing has emerged as a revolutionary approach in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). As these diseases continue to impose a significant global health burden, the innovative use of mitochondrial gene editing offers a promising avenue to address their underlying causes. The dysfunction of mitochondria, triggered by mutations in mtDNA, is now recognized as a pivotal factor contributing to the development of several debilitating conditions,
