2. Genetic editing and cancer
The development of genomics has allowed a more
analytic approach as of the variations of genes ex-
pression, and the neo-mutation through the natural
selection of the dominant clone of a tumour, with a
whole group of reversibility tools, which may even in
the later stages of a cancer, diminish its hostility, with
the theoretical possibility of a highly selective, effi-
cient and adverse effect-free cure for cancer.
3. Cell aging and regeneration therapy
The study of embryogenesis and organs morphogen-
esis provided a deeper understanding of the genet-
ic regulation of these processes, which can open the
doors wide towards the development of autogeneic
in vitro transplants growing. Besides, the elevation of
growth rates of some tissue can be a better mecha-
nism to extinct the effect of some degenerative pa-
thologies, with the general optic of mastering cell ag-
ing and regeneration technology.
