Generation of in situ CRISPR-mediated primary and metastatic cancer from monkey liver
Abstract Non-human primates (NHPs) represent the most valuable animals for drug discovery. However, the current main challenge remains that the NHP has not yet been used to develop an efficient translational medicine platform simulating human diseases, such as cancer. This study generated an in situ...

Abstract Non-human primates (NHPs) represent the most valuable animals for drug discovery.
