Recent understandings in the genetic basis of diseases emphasize the need for potential therapeutic strategies. Latest molecular techniques such as RNA interference, gene therapy and gene editing that can modify nucleic acids within disease affected tissues can have great potential for treating genetic disorders. In this context, the present review summarizes the tools available for human gene editing and advances in research with reference to CRISPR/Cas9 based human genome editing. This review also discusses various ethical concerns associated with human gene editing.
