The results of the world’s first trial said on Wednesday that eight healthy children were born in the UK using a new IVF technique that successfully reduced the risk of inheriting genetic diseases from their mothers.
These results were appreciated as a breakthrough, which raises the hope that their mutocanidal DNA can one day produce their children without having to go through weak or deadly diseases.
One out of every 5,000 births is affected by mitochenary diseases, which cannot be treated, and includes symptoms such as poor vision, diabetes and muscle ruin.
In 2015, the United Kingdom became the first country to approve the vitro fertilization (IVF) technique that uses a small amount of healthy mitocondrial DNA from donor eggs, along with mother’s eggs and dad’s sperm.
Some people have termed the result “children of three parents”, though researchers have pushed back the term as only about 0.1 0.1 % of the newborn’s DNA comes from the donor.
The New England Journal of Medicine has published the results of the UK’s highly tried trial.
The main reproductive option
Eight of 22 women were born at the New Castle Artrata Center in northeastern England. Now four boys and four girls are more than two years of age from six months.
According to the research, the amount of variable mitocandery DNA is caused by the disease-according to research, according to research.
For the other two newborns, the amount decreased by 77 % -88 %, which is lower than the limit that causes the disease.
This indicates that this technique was effective in reducing the transfer of diseases between the mother and the baby.
Researchers said that eight children are currently healthy, though someone was worried about their heart rhythm, which was successfully treated.
In the coming years, their health will be followed to find out if problems arise.
Neils Gorn Larson, who is not included in a Swedish reproductive research, welcomed “progress”.
He added that the new technique offers “very important reproductive options” for families affected by “destructive” mitocare diseases.
Ethical Review
Matochemical donation is controversial and has not been approved in many countries, including the United States and France.
Religious leaders have opposed this method because it involves the destruction of human evil. Other opponents have expressed concern that this genetically engineer could pave the way for “designer children”.
Council Director Daniel Ham said on Wednesday that a moral review of the UK’s Independent Nickel Council Biouthex was an “important role” in conducting new research.
Peter Thomson, head of the UK’s Human Fertilization and Embassy Authority, who approved the procedure, said that only people who are “at a very risky” to go through mitochondrial illness will be eligible for treatment.
Greece and Ukraine have also raised ethical concerns over the use of mutoconic funds for infertility.
“This is a question of risky proportion:” This is a question of risky proportion, “said Julie Stephen, a French mitochondrial disease specialist.
“In the context of infertility, this has not been proven,” he added.
Dagan Wells, a reproductive genetics expert at the University of Oxford, observed that “some scientists will be a little disappointed that so far so far so far has led to the birth of only eight children”.
The children who are being closely monitored include three, which is known as “Altal”, showed some signs, which are still not understood.
He explained that this is a phenomenon where therapy initially succeeds in developing a fetus with very little defective mitocandria, but when the baby is born, the proportion of abnormal mitocandria in its cells has increased significantly. “
