Rare genetic disorders in India : Current status, challenges, and CRISPR-based therapy
Rare genetic diseases are a group of life-threatening disorders affecting significant populations worldwide and posing substantial challenges to healthcare systems globally. India, with its vast population, is also no exception. The country harbors millions of individuals affected by these fatal disorders, which often result from mutations in a single gene. The emergence of CRISPR-Cas9 technology, however, has ushered in a new era of hope in genetic therapies. CRISPR-based treatments hold the potential to precisely edit and correct diseasecausing mutations, offering tailored solutions for rare genetic diseases in India. This review explores the landscape of rare genetic diseases in India along with national policies and major challenges, and examines the implications of CRISPR-based therapies for potential cure. It delves into the potential of this technology in providing personalized and effective treatments. However, alongside these promising prospects, some ethical considerations, regulatory challenges, and concerns about the accessibility of CRISPR therapies are also discussed since addressing these issues is crucial for harnessing the full power of CRISPR in tackling rare genetic diseases in India. By taking a multidisciplinary approach that combines scientific advancements, ethical principles, and regulatory frameworks, these complexities can be reconciled, paving the way for innovative and impactful healthcare solutions for rare diseases in India.
