ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to gene therapy for Gaucher disease using retroviral vectors which express the glucocerebrosidase gene. Methods are provided for transduction of autologous hematopoietic stem cells (e.g., human CD34+ cells) with these vectors and for transplantation of the transduced cells into a Gaucher disease patient to provide therapeutically effective levels of glucocerebrosidase activity. The invention also provides for retroviral vectors that express the glucocerebrosidase gene, and for human hematopoietic cells that contain the retroviral vector.
