CRISPR/Cas9 for Sickle Cell Disease: Applications, Future Possibilities, and Challenges

Demirci, Selami, Leonard, Alexis, Haro-Mora, Juan J., Uchida, Naoya, Tisdale, John F.·2019·Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology

Abstract

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited monogenic disorder resulting in serious mortality and morbidity worldwide. Although the disease was characterized more than a century ago, there are only two FDA approved medications to lessen disease severity, and a definitive cure available to all patients with SCD is lacking. Rapid and substantial progress in genome editing approaches have proven valuable as a curative option given plausibility to either correct the underlying mutation in patient-derived hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), induce fetal hemoglobin expression to circumvent sickling of red blood cells (RBCs), or create corrected induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) among other approaches. Recent discovery of CRISPR/Cas9 has not only revolutionized genome engineering but has also brought the possibility of translating these concepts into a clinically meaningful reality. Here we summarize genome engineering applications using CRISPR/Cas9, addressing challenges and future perspectives of CRISPR/Cas9 as a curative option for SCD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
