Therapeutic genome editing by combined viral and non-viral delivery of CRISPR system components in vivo
Open accessAbstract
The combination of Cas9, guide RNA and repair template DNA can induce precise gene editing and the correction of genetic diseases in adult mammals. However, clinical implementation of this technology requires safe and effective delivery of all of these components into the nuclei of the target tissue. Here, we combine lipid nanoparticle-mediated delivery of Cas9 mRNA with adeno-associated viruses encoding a sgRNA and a repair template to induce repair of a disease gene in adult animals. We applied our delivery strategy to a mouse model of human hereditary tyrosinemia and show that the treatment generated fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (Fah)-positive hepatocytes by correcting the causative Fah-splicing mutation. Treatment rescued disease symptoms such as weight loss and liver damage. The efficiency of correction was >6% of hepatocytes after a single application, suggesting potential utility of Cas9-based therapeutic genome editing for a range of diseases.

TL;DR
This study combined lipid nanoparticle delivery of Cas9 mRNA with AAV-delivered sgRNA and an HDR template to correct the Fah mutation in a mouse model of hereditary tyrosinemia type I. A single treatment corrected >6% of hepatocytes, restored Fah splicing, and rescued weight loss and liver damage.
Key findings
- In Fahmut/mut mice, combined nano.Cas9 + AAV-HDR treatment yielded 6.2% ± 1.0% Fah-positive hepatocytes by immunohistochemistry after a single application (n = 4 mice), with correction correlating with nano.Cas9 and AAV-HDR dose.
- Treated mice had 9.5% restored FAH mRNA without selection, 24.1% average indels at the sgRNA target region, and 0.81% ± 0.08% corrected “G-CC” sequence in total liver DNA by deep sequencing.
- Treatment completely prevented body weight loss after NTBC withdrawal, all nano.Cas9 + AAV-HDR mice survived 30 days, and serum AST, ALT, and bilirubin indicated substantially reduced liver damage compared with controls.
- Off-target editing was low at assayed sites: <0.3% indels at three top predicted off-target sites, and in vivo OT1/GOT sites were not substantially higher than background (P > 0.05); transient mRNA Cas9 also reduced off-target editing versus long-term lentiviral Cas9 in cells.
Methods
- Fahmut/mut mice (8–10 weeks old, male and female) were injected via tail vein with AAV2/8-HDR (6 × 10^11 or 1.2 × 10^12 genome copies) and nano.Cas9 (1 or 2 mg/kg); in the efficacy experiment, AAV-HDR was given at day −14, nano.Cas9 at day −7, and NTBC water was withdrawn at day 0.
- Cas9 mRNA was chemically modified and formulated with C12-200, cholesterol, C14PEG2000, DOPE, and arachidonic acid in lipid nanoparticles; AAV-HDR encoded U6-sgRNA and a 1.7-kb HDR template designed to correct the mutant “A” to wild-type “G” and introduce a “CC” PAM motif.
- Analyses included liver immunohistochemistry, serum biomarkers, qRT-PCR, Sanger sequencing, Illumina deep sequencing, GUIDE-Seq in Hepa1-6 cells, and statistics by Student’s t-tests and one-way ANOVA with Tukey post-test.
Limitations
- Stated: non-viral delivery of DNA into the nucleus in vivo with high efficiency and low toxicity remains difficult, and further improvement of HDR efficacy may require optimizing HDR template design and inhibiting the NHEJ pathway.
- Stated: the stringent “G-CC” pattern counting may underestimate HDR events, and an alternative explanation for the observed data is partial gene conversion; off-target analysis was limited to predicted and assayed sites.
- Evident from the text: efficacy was shown only in the Fahmut/mut mouse model, with small group sizes (n = 3–4 mice) and 30-day follow-up, so long-term durability, AAV immunogenicity, and human translation are not established.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
