Systemic delivery of phagocytosis-shielded retroviral vectors enables in vivo HSC gene therapy for sickle cell disease
SUMMARY Ex vivo hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene therapy is effective for non-malignant blood disorders including sickle cell disease (SCD), but requires hospitalization, ex vivo cell manipulation, and conditioning. Direct in vivo gene delivery could remove these barriers and widen access. Here, we explore phagocytos...
