Replacement Gene Therapy with a Human <i>RPGRIP1</i> Sequence Slows Photoreceptor Degeneration in a Murine Model of Leber Congenital Amaurosis
2010-04-12
Abstract excerpt
Genetic defect in RPGR-interacting protein 1 (RPGRIP1) is a known cause of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), a severe, inherited form of retinal degeneration. Here, Pawlyk et al. report results from studies evaluating the efficacy of AAV8-mediated replacement gene therapy in a mouse model of LCA carrying a targeted disruption of RPGRIP1. RPGR-interacting protein-1 (RPGRIP1) is localized in the photoreceptor-connec...
