CRISPR correction of a homozygous low‐density lipoprotein receptor mutation in familial hypercholesterolemia induced pluripotent stem cells

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a hereditary disease primarily due to mutations in the low‐density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) that lead to elevated cholesterol and premature development of cardiovascular disease. Homozygous FH patients (HoFH) with two dysfunctional LDLR alleles are not as suc...
