Stable and Functional Lymphoid Reconstitution in Artemis-deficient Mice Following Lentiviral Artemis Gene Transfer Into Hematopoietic Stem Cells
17 Jun 2008
Abstract excerpt
Patients with mutations in the Artemis gene display a complete absence of T- and B lymphocytes, together with increased cellular radiosensitivity; this leads to a radiosensitive severe combined immunodeficiency (RS-SCID). Allogenic hematopoietic stem-cell (HSC) transplantation is only partially successful in the absence of an human leukocyte antigen-genoidentical donor, and this has prompted a search for...
