CLN7 mutation causes aberrant redistribution of protein isoforms and contributes to Batten disease pathobiology
2022-04-21
Abstract excerpt
The variant late infantile form of the inherited neurodegenerative Batten disease (BD) is caused by mutations in the CLN7/MFSD8 gene and represents a strong candidate for gene therapy. Post-natal intracerebral administration of AAV9-hCLN7 to Cln7 Δex2 knockout mice resulted in extended lifespan but dose escalation resulted in reduced acuity in neurophysiology tests, cerebral atrophy and elevated neuroinflammation...
