Enhancement of red blood cell transfusion compatibility using CRISPR‐mediated erythroblast gene editing

Abstract Regular blood transfusion is the cornerstone of care for patients with red blood cell (RBC) disorders such as thalassaemia or sickle‐cell disease. With repeated transfusion, alloimmunisation often occurs due to incompatibility at the level of minor blood group antigens. We use CRISPR‐mediat...
