Description:

Gene therapies have been in the news lately. They are being used to help individuals who have a genetic variant linked to a disorder or disease, including but not limited to: spinal muscular atrophy, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) deficiency, diabetes and some types of cancers. What is the promise in rare genetic forms of neurodevelopmental disorders and autism? This week, scientists from Jaguar Therapeutics discuss their ongoing studies in Phelan-McDermid Syndrome and how gene therapies hold promise for treating neurological impairments caused by a known genetic variant. The interview provides basic information of what a gene therapy is, how it works, how it is used and what is monitored during these treatments.
