Globin gene transfer for the treatment of severe hemoglobinopathies: a paradigm for stem cell-based gene therapy

The Journal of Gene Medicine
Michel Sadelain

Abstract

The prospect of treating blood disorders with genetically modified stem cells is highly promising. This therapeutic approach, however, raises a number of fundamental biological questions, spanning several research fields. Further investigation is required to better understand how to isolate and efficiently transduce hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), while preserving optimal homing and self-renewing properties; how to design safe vectors permitting controlled expression of the transgene products; and how to promote host repopulation by engrafted HSCs. This article addresses basic issues in stem cell-based gene therapy from the perspective of regulating transgene expression, taking globin gene transfer for the treatment of severe hemoglobinopathies as a paradigm.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

CREs: Gene & Cell Therapy

Gene and cell therapy advances have shown promising outcomes for several diseases. The role of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) is crucial in the design of gene therapy vectors. Here is the latest research on CREs in gene and cell therapy.
