Gene Therapy for Erythroid Metabolic Inherited Diseases
Gene therapy is becoming a powerful tool to treat genetic diseases. Clinical trials performed during last two decades have demonstrated its usefulness in the treatment of several genetic diseases [1] but also the need to improve vector delivery, expression and safety [2]. New vectors should reduce genotoxicity (genomic alteration due to vector integration), immuno‐ genicity (immune response to ...
متن کاملThe Inherited Metabolic Diseases
I am usually highly resistant to exhortations from reviewers that a particular book is 'essential reading'. But now and again one appears which should command our attention and I urge all paediatricians to read Penelope Leach's new book. Her case is that 'post-industrial western societies', such as the UK, ignore or override the special needs of children to such an extent that they miss out and...
متن کاملNuclease-Mediated Gene Therapies for Inherited Metabolic Diseases of the Liver
Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) of the liver represent a vast and diverse group of rare genetic diseases characterized by the loss or dysfunction of enzymes or proteins essential for metabolic pathways in the liver. Conventional gene therapy involving adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype 8 vectors provide therapeutically high levels of hepatic transgene expression facilitating the correcti...
متن کاملNeonatal Expanded Screening For Inherited Metabolic Diseases: Planning By Simulation
Inherited metabolic diseases are rare but may cause severe damages if not cared for in time. A neonatal screening program, including a first quick test to all newborns and a second accurate test for patients with positive results, is being planned in Veneto region, northeast Italy. A simulation model describing all operations has been built and implemented with the scope of giving suitable dime...
متن کاملViral Vector-Mediated Antisense Therapy for Genetic Diseases
RNA plays complex roles in normal health and disease and is becoming an important target for therapeutic intervention; accordingly, therapeutic strategies that modulate RNA function have gained great interest over the past decade. Antisense oligonucleotides (AOs) are perhaps the most promising strategy to modulate RNA expression through a variety of post binding events such as gene silencing th...
