Metabolic diseases is defined by a constellation of interconnected physiological, biochemical, clinical, and metabolic factors that directly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and all cause mortality. Associated conditions include hyperuricemia, fatty liver (especially in concurrent obesity) progressing to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome (in women), erectile dysfunction (in men), and acanthosis nigricans. Metabolic disease modeling is an essential component of biomedical research and a mandatory prerequisite for the treatment of human disease. Somatic genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 might be used to establish novel metabolic disease models.
