Research Abstract |
We sought to elucidate the potential usefulness of a human artificial chromosome (HAC) vector carrying the human FVIII cDNA for gene therapy of Hemophilia A. We have demonstrated the production and secretion of FVIII using the HAC vector carrying multi copies of FVIII in the hemophiliac mouse derived stem cell. This develops promising gene therapies for hemophilia A.
