The Effect Of Using Crispr/Cas9 Treatment To Delete The Myostatin Protein In Vivo And In Vitro, Marco Cardone

Honors Undergraduate Theses

This thesis proposal shows the efficiency of different methods of Myostatin inhibition by using CRISPR/CAS9. With the data cataloged by this thesis, researchers will have a better understanding of what methods are better to achieve their goals. The data was collected by reading multiple scientific articles involving the usage of CRISPR/CAS9 to inhibit the Myostatin protein. The data collected from all the different studies were analyzed in the same categories. The experiment that used CRIPSR/CAS9 on in vitro specimens had a superior Myostatin inhibition overall, therefore presenting higher muscle mass. The method using CRISPR/CAS9 to inhibit the Myostatin in vivo …
