Cystic Fibrosis gene therapy in the UK and elsewhere [PDF]

, 2015
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene was identified in 1989. This opened the door for the development of cystic fibrosis (CF) gene therapy, which has been actively pursued for the last 20 years.

Gene therapy

Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 1999
For the past two decades, concerted efforts have been made to treat human disease by replacing nonfunctioning genes in cells or by correcting mutations that produce disease. Successful application of these methods could lead to effective therapies for a variety of genetic and acquired diseases, many of which are not treatable today.

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.

Liver-directed SERPINA1 gene therapy attenuates progression of spontaneous and tobacco smoke-induced emphysema in α1-antitrypsin null mice [PDF]

, 2022
α1-antitrypsin deficiency is a rare genetic condition that can cause liver and/or lung disease. There is currently no cure for this disorder, although repeated infusions of plasma-purified protein may slow down emphysema progression.

Macrophage Transcriptomic Alterations Driven by Alphavirus-Based Cancer Immunotherapy Vectors

Journal of Immunology Research
Cancer cells promote the polarisation of tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) into pro-tumorigenic M2-like phenotype, contributing to cancer progression. Reprogramming TAMs by viral immunotherapy vectors represents a promising strategy for cancer therapy.

Ovarian Sex Cord Stromal Tumors in Children and Adolescents—The European Standard Clinical Practice Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As part of the European Cooperative Study Group for Paediatric Rare Tumours initiative, we developed standard clinical practice guidelines for ovarian sex cord stromal tumors, based on comprehensive national and international cohort analyses, literature review, and a final expert consensus conference.

Improved gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy in mice using codon-optimized hSMN1 transgene and hSMN1 gene-derived promotor

EMBO Molecular Medicine
Physiological regulation of transgene expression is a major challenge in gene therapy. Onasemnogene abeparvovec (Zolgensma®) is an approved adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector gene therapy for infants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), however, adverse ...

Cochlear Gene Therapy [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2012
Over 450 million people worldwide suffer from hearing loss, leading to an estimated economic burden of ∼$750 billion. The past decade has seen significant advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms that contribute to hearing, and the environmental and genetic factors that can go awry and lead to hearing loss.

Acute Neurological Events in Children With Hemoglobin SC Disease: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurological manifestations in children with hemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease remain insufficiently characterized, particularly regarding acute events. The aim of this study was to describe the spectrum and frequency of acute neurological events in a multicenter cohort of children with HbSC disease.

Universal Method for the Purification of Recombinant AAV Vectors of Differing Serotypes

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2018
The generation of clinical good manufacturing practices (GMP)-grade adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors requires purification strategies that support the generation of vectors of high purity, and that exhibit a good safety and efficacy profile. To date,
