Collectively, our data emphasize the molecular and functional heterogeneity of parenchymal brain macrophages and highlight potential clinical implications for HSC gene therapies aimed to ameliorate lysosomal storage disorders, microgliopathies or general monogenic immuno-deficiencies.
This vector design therefore combines the benefits of multilineage gene expression with high-level erythroid expression, and has considerable potential for correction of multisystem diseases including certain lysosomal storage diseases through a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene therapy approach.
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene therapy remains a highly attractive treatment option for many disorders, including hematologic conditions, immunodeficiencies including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), and other genetic disorders such as lysosomal storage diseases.
