Abstract excerpt
Neonatal gene transfer using adenovirus vectors expressing human beta-glucuronidase (AxCAhGUS) resulted in pathological improvement in multiple visceral organs of mice with mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPSVII). However, the therapeutic effect on skeletal deformities and growth retardation, the major clinical symptoms in MPSVII, was not fully investigated by biochemical and histopathological analyses. In this...
