Evaluation of persistence and fate of <i>ex vivo</i> edited-HSC modified with donor template and Its role in correcting Sickle Cell Disease
2021-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is caused by a single nucleotide transversion in exon 1 of the HBB gene that changes the hydrophobicity of adult globin (β A ), leading to substantial morbidity and reduced lifespan. Ex vivo autologous gene editing utilizing co-delivery of a designer nuclease along with a DNA donor template allows for precise homology-directed repair (HDR). These gene corrected cells when engrafted int...
