Attitudes Toward Prenatal Interventions in the Fanconi Anemia Community
ABSTRACT Objective In‐utero cell and gene therapies may offer prenatal treatment options for inherited diseases. Preclinical data suggests in‐utero (IU) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) could prevent Fanconi anemia (FA) related bone marrow failure without genotoxic conditioning or immune suppression.

Autism spectrum disorder in children with spinal muscular atrophy type 1: Case series
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was identified in 37.5% of children with SMA (n = 13). While IQ did not differ significantly between groups, adaptive functioning was reduced in those with co‐occurring ASD. Results support routine early neurodevelopmental screening in children with spinal muscular atrophy.

Abstract BACKGROUND Adeno‐Associated Virus vectors are widely used in gene therapy due to their safety and efficacy. Despite the interest in their therapeutical application, AAV purification remains a significant challenge. Density gradient ultracentrifugation using cesium chloride, sucrose, or iodixanol gradients are common methods for AAV ...

ABSTRACT Many currently approved gene therapies use adeno‐associated virus (AAV) to deliver DNA sequences encoding protein(s)‐of‐interest into cells. The AAV viral genome forms stable, circular DNA structures called episomes after entering the nuclei. Therapeutic proteins are then generated in vivo from transcription and translation of these episomes ...
