Screening of Chimeric GAA Variants in a Preclinical Study of Pompe Disease Results in Candidate Vector for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Gene Therapy
2021-12-29
Abstract excerpt
Pompe disease is a rare genetic neuromuscular disorder caused by acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency resulting in lysosomal glycogen accumulation and progressive myopathy. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is the current standard of care, which prolongs the quality of life for Pompe patients. However, ERT has limitations due to lack of enzyme penetration into the central nervous system (CNS) and skeletal muscle...
