Abstract: For gene therapy of gain-of-function autosomal dominant diseases, either correcting or deleting the disease allele is potentially curative. To test whether there may be an advantage of one approach over the other for WHIM (warts,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1182/blood.2022019142

Abstract: WHIM syndrome is an autosomal dominant immunodeficiency disorder caused by gain-of-function mutations in chemokine receptor CXCR4 that promote severe panleukopenia due to bone marrow (BM) retention of mature leukocytes. We previously reported that Cxcr4-haploinsufficient (Cxcr4+/o)… read more here.
