We now report that brain Nat8l knockdown elicited by intracerebroventricular/intracisternal administration of an adeno-associated viral vector carrying a short hairpin Nat8l inhibitory RNA to neonatal aspartoacylase-deficient Aspa<sup>Nur7/Nur7</sup> mice lowers [NAA<sub>B</sub>] and suppresses development of spongiform leukodystrophy.

Canavan disease (CD) is a rare fatal childhood neurological autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the ASPA gene, which lead to catalytic deficiency of the ASPA enzyme, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of N-acetyl-L-aspartate (NAA) into aspartate and acetate.

Aspartoacylase (ASPA) is an abundant enzyme in the brain, which catalyzes the conversion of N-acetylaspartate into acetate and aspartate, deficiency in its activity leads to degeneration of the white matter of the brain and is a recognized cause of Canavan disease (CD), which affect children.
