Publisher's Summary:
A new study sounds a cautionary note for a controversial procedure for creating three-parent babies. That procedure replaces defective mitochondria, the energy-generating organelles in cells, with healthy ones. But even a tiny amount of defective mitochondria carried over in a transfer may replicate and take over the cell, researchers report.
"Mitochondrial Therapy Has Risk" is from the June 25, 2016 issue of Science News.
