CRISPR correction of <i>GBA</i> mutation in hiPSCs restores normal function to Gaucher macrophages and increases their susceptibility to <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>

2022-11-26

Abstract excerpt

Gaucher disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) GBA gene, which result in macrophage dysfunction. To investigate whether correction of GBA mutations restores normal function to Gaucher macrophages, we performed CRISPR editing of homozygous L444P (1448T→C) GBA mutation in Type 2 GD ( GBA -/-) hiPSCs, which yielded both heterozygou...
