Liver-directed gene therapy corrects neurologic disease in a murine model of mucopolysaccharidosis type I-Hurler
19 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I-Hurler (MPS I-H) is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by inherited defects of the α-L-iduronidase ( IDUA ) gene. Current treatments are ineffective for treating central nervous system (CNS) manifestations because lysosomal enzymes do not effectively cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). To enable BBB transport of the enzyme, we engineered a modified IDUA...
