Be the first to review this Drug. Lanreotide is a man-made protein that is similar to a hormone in the body called somatostatin. Lanreotide lowers many substances in the body such as insulin and glucagon (involved in regulating blood sugar), growth hormone, and chemicals that affect digestion. Lanreotide is used to treat acromegaly in people who cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. Lanreotide is sometimes given when surgery or radiation treatments have been tried without successful treatment of symptoms. Lanreotide may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Think of it like a search-and-rescue mission for DNA. Crispr uses guide RNA as a homing device; it's designed in a lab to match up with a section of DNA designated for editing. In therapeutic uses, this could be a genetic abnormality that causes disease. That guide molecule is joined with an enzyme known as Cas9 (CRISPR's fuller name is actually CRISPR-Cas9). The enzyme acts like scissors, making a cut in the DNA where the RNA guided. By adding DNA with the correct sequence, scientists hope to be able to correct the underlying genetic defects that cause disease.
