Successful Gene Therapy <i>in Utero</i> for Lethal Murine Hypophosphatasia
2011-12-02
Abstract excerpt
Hypophosphatasia (HPP), caused by mutations in the gene ALPL encoding tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNALP), is an inherited systemic skeletal disease characterized by mineralization defects of bones and teeth. The clinical severity of HPP varies widely, from a lethal perinatal form to mild odontohypophosphatasia showing only dental manifestations. HPP model mice (Akp2−/−) phenotypically mimic the severe...
