6 August 2026 20:39 (UTC+04:00)By Alimat AliyevaScientists at Kindred Companion Sciences have created two beagles using CRISPR gene-editing technology that appear to no longer produce the main allergen associated with dogs., AzerNEWS reports.
According to the company, the edited beagles do not produce this protein, which could potentially reduce allergic reactions in people who are sensitive to dogs.
However, experts warn that the technology does not mean dog allergies have been completely eliminated.
Kindred Companion Sciences says that commercial use of this technology is still far in the future.
Scientists plan to continue monitoring the beagles throughout their lives to study their long-term health, development, and the safety of genetic editing.
