Neonatal Gene Therapy of MPS I Mice by Intravenous Injection of a Lentiviral Vector
25 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is a lysosomal glycosaminoglycan (GAG) storage disorder caused by deficiency of alpha-l-iduronidase (IDUA). In this study, we evaluated the potential to perform gene therapy for MPS I by direct in vivo injection of a lentiviral vector, using an IDUA gene knockout murine model. We compared the efficacy in newborn versus young adult MPS I mice of a single intravenous injection...
