Combining CRISPR/Cas9 and brain imaging: from genes to molecules to networks

Abstract: Understanding how functional connections between brain regions are arranged and influenced by genes, in the healthy and diseased states, is a major goal in neuroscience. Functional connectivity alterations are linked to molecular changes in several neurodegenerative disorders and could serve as early markers of pathology. Yet, the underlying molecular signatures driving the functional alterations remain largely unknown. Here, we combine CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing with in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) a… Show more

“…In several neurological disorders, including epilepsy, major depression, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease, next-generation sequencing approaches have identified novel receptors, transporters, and ion channels involved in disease initiation and progression. However, their role in pathogenesis is poorly understood ( 43 ). Gene editing combined with in vivo imaging modalities, as developed in the present study, will help to identify the molecular and functional role of these targets and the adaptations following their regional dysfunction on the whole-brain level.…”
