Abstract

Prenatal CRISPR gene editing results in efficient pulmonary epithelial cell editing and ameliorates a mouse model of a congenital lung disease.

  • In utero gene editing has rescued the lethal phenotype of hereditary tyrosinemia type 1, improved the pulmonary phenotype of surfactant protein C deficiency, and ameliorated metabolic, musculoskeletal, and cardiac disease in mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS-IH, Hurler syndrome) in mouse models.

    “Previously, we demonstrated the therapeutic potential of in utero gene editing in mouse models of human diseases, rescuing the lethal phenotype of hereditary tyrosinemia type 1, improving the pulmonary phenotype of surfactant protein C deficiency, and ameliorating metabolic, musculoskeletal, and cardiac disease in mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS-IH, Hurler syndrome) (7–9).”
  • CNS targeting via prior viral vector approaches was not efficient.

    “Although encouraging, CNS targeting via these approaches was not efficient, highlighting the need to evaluate alternative delivery approaches to treat genetic CNS diseases.”

    From Ionizable Lipid Nanoparticles for Therapeutic Base Editing of Congenital Brain Disease (2023) · cites this paper as [8]

    The Introduction and Discussion describe viral-vector delivery and gene editing targeted to fetal lung cells, not the CNS. Searches for CNS targeting, brain transduction, and inefficient viral-vector delivery found no passage in our copy assessing the efficiency of prior approaches for CNS targeting.

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.
