Correcting the stress-causing pathogenic variant with CRISPR/Cas9 allowed the iPSC line to generate highly functional SC-islets capable of rapidly reversing severe diabetes in mice.
“Correcting this stress-causing pathogenic variant with CRISPR/Cas9, however, allowed this iPSC line to generate highly functional SC-islets that were capable of rapidly reversing severe diabetes in mice, illustrating that gene-editing strategies can be used to mitigate stress responses.”

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.
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.
