    摘要: Provided is a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) having an AAV capsid and a vector genome which comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding a functional human methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (hMECP2). Also provided is a production system useful for producing the rAAV, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the rAAV, and a method of treating a subject having Rett Syndrome, or ameliorating symptoms of Rett Syndrome, or delaying progression of Rett Syndrome via administrating an effective amount of the rAAV to a subject in need thereof.

    摘要: A recombinant vector having an expression cassette comprising an engineered nucleic acid sequence encoding a functional human low-density lipoprotein receptor (hLDLR) is provided. The functional hLDLR protein is a wild type or a modified hLDLR comprising three amino acid substitutions (i.e., L318D, K809R and C818A). A recombinant adeno-associated viral particle (rAAV) is also provided comprising a capsid and a vector genome packaged therein, wherein the vector genome comprises an engineered nucleic acid sequence encoding a functional hLDLR. The capsid may be an AAV8 capsid, an AAV3B capsid, or an AAV38 variant capsid. Further provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a recombinant vector or an rAAV and a pharmaceutical acceptable carrier, as well as uses and methods using the recombinant vector, rAAV or composition in lowering cholesterol and/or treating familial hypercholesterolemia.

    摘要: A recombinant AAV (rAAV) suitable for use in treating adult onset neurodegeneration caused by granulin (GRN) haploinsufficiency, such as progranulin (PGRN) - related frontotemporal dementia (FTD), is provided. The rAAV comprises (a) an adeno-associated virus 1 capsid, and (b) a vector genome packaged in the AAV capsid, said vector genome comprising AAV inverted terminal repeats, a coding sequence for human progranulin, and regulatory sequences which direct expression of the progranulin. Also provided are a method for treating a human patient with PGRN -FTD and other adult onset neurodegeneration caused by granulin (GRN) haploinsufficiencies, comprising delivering to the central nervous system (CNS) a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) having an adeno-associated virus 1 (AAV1) capsid, said rAAV further comprising a vector genome packaged in the AAV capsid, said vector genome comprising AAV inverted terminal repeats, a coding sequence for human progranulin, and regulatory sequences which direct expression of the progranulin.
