JCI Gene therapy via CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Cxcr4 disease allele inactivation reverses leukopenia in WHIM mice

Summary by jci.org
Warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis (WHIM) syndrome is an immunodeficiency caused by autosomal dominant hyperfunctional mutations in chemokine receptor CXCR4 that promote panleukopenia due to BM retention. We previously reported a preclinical gene therapy protocol involving allele-nonspecific Cxcr4 CRISPR/Cas9 inactivation, leveraging the known in vivo dominance of Cxcr4+/o (+, WT; o, inactivated) hematopoietic stem cells…
