Research Abstract |
We investigated the effect of lenti-virus mediated gene therapy for Krabbe disease. We succeeded in preparing high titer lenti-virus including GALC, deficient enzyme in Krabbe disease expressing gene by large scale harvesting and ultracentrifuge, and injected for neonatal twitcher mouse, model for Krabbe disease resulted in efficient improvement in nutrition and life span. And we had more efficient improvement in the phenotype of twitcher mice by the combination of gene therapy and substrate reduction therapy using L-cycloserine.
