Fabry disease (OMIM 301500) (FD) is a rare lysosomal disease often known as Anderson Fabry disease by the researchers who first brought it to light (Anderson, 1898). It may also be called alpha-galactosidase A deficiency or GLA deficiency, angiokeratoma corporis diffuse, diffuse angiokeratoma, ceramide trioxide oxidosis, and hereditary dystopic lipidosis. It is an inborn error of X-linked metabolism that occurs because of a deficiency of alpha-galactosidase, which is designed to catabolize the Globotrioasylceramide? or? Gb3,? instead? progressively? accumulates? in? lysosomes? .? Lysosomal? storage? disorders? (LSD)? are? a? group? of? over? 70? inherited? metabolic? disorders? with? a? collective? frequency? of? 1? in? 5000? patients,? although? individually? they? are? rare? in? the? population.? Fabry? disease? is? the? second? most? common? LSD? and? at? the? top? of? the? list? is? Gaucher? disease.? Others? include? Niemann? Pick? disease,? Hunter? syndrome,? Pompe? disease? and? Tay?

FD is caused by mutations in the GLA gene. According to Fabry database.org, as of 2019, 1,993 mutations have been reported in the gene, including 1,518 missense and 297 nonsense mutations, representing a large percentage of all GLA mutations. (However, it is important to note that not all of them lead to a defective GLA protein, but more than 800 mutations have already been implicated in the disease. Physiologically, the enzyme galactosidase alpha is active in the lysosome, where it functions to break down the lipid molecules globotriaosylceramide or Gb3 into smaller particles as part of the lysosome recycling process. In the disease state, the mutated GLA gene results in a dysfunctional protein, leading to a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase, which limits the breakdown of Gb3 molecules and thus causes the accumulation of these lipid fractions in the cells of various organs.

Fabry's disease (FD) affects most organs in a nonspecific manner, some with common symptoms, making the disease undetectable and therefore largely undetected. Sufferers experience burning sensations and episodes of pain in the limbs, dark red spots on the skin, impaired vision, hearing loss and the ability to sweat. FD is accompanied by various gastrointestinal and cardiac complications. There are two variants of FD: the classic?or?classic?FD?and?atypical?or?late-onset?FD.?The?classic?form?of?FD?includes?patients?with?mutations?that?result?in?little?or?no?residual?enzyme?activity?that?affects?the?quality?of?life?from?an?early?age?and?reduces?life?expectancy.?Children?with?the?classic?form?of?FD?suffer?from?heat?intolerance,?skin?abnormalities,?gastrointestinal?problems?and?pain?in?the?extremities?known?as?Fabry?crises?that?often?extend?to?kidney?and?cardiac?symptoms?in?adulthood?

The late-onset variant of Fabry disease refers to patients with residual Gal activity (3-30%). This variant is generally labeled with organ-specific manifestations in adulthood, such as the heart. Renal and cardiac variants constitute a significant percentage of patients with late-onset FD.

I?test? Because of the complex symptoms of the disease, which vary from individual to individual, diagnosis is often delayed and mostly overlooked. It is crucial and perhaps rare for a general practitioner to identify a patient's symptoms as those of Fabry disease. If a patient is suspected of having Fabry disease, genetic and enzymatic evaluations are performed. Tests

Clinical tests for plasma galactosidase enzyme activity are performed for both classical and non-classical FD. Males with classical FD show 1.3% enzyme activity, whereas patients with late-onset FD activity show values ranging from 3 to 30%, in which case a confirmed diagnosis requires genetic evaluation. Genetic testing confirms the type of mutation in the enzyme locus and its repercussions. This type of genetic testing is recommended for?females?because?the?enzyme?test?is?very?likely?to?indicate?residual?activity.?In?addition,?genetic?counseling?or?family?studies?have?helped?diagnose?Fabry?disease.?In?families?with?this?X-linked?disorder,?prenatal?evaluation?is?performed?by?analysis?of?amniotic?fluids?and?gene?sequencing?for?suspected?mutations?

Currently, enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and, more recently, chaperone therapy products have seen some success in treating FD. The ERT therapies Shire’s Replagal (Agalsidase alpha) and Sanofi’s Fabrazyme (Agalsidase beta) cost approximately $300,000-$315,000/year. The annual cost of Galafold, Amicus Therapeutics’ first oral chaperone therapy capsule, similar to ERT (Markham, 2016; Moran, 2018), is approximately $100,000-$150,000. but?it?can?only?be?addressed?to?a?subgroup?of?patients.?The?cost?of?these?treatments?is?a?worrying?factor?that?encourages?the?need?for?new?and?cheaper?treatments?that?can?be?accessible?to?common?people?(Motabar?et?al.,?2010).?

It is based in part on the adaptive immune response of many bacteria and archaea. When a virus or plasmid invades a bacterium, segments of the invader's DNA are converted into CRISPR RNA (crRNA) by the immune response. The crRNA then associates with a region of partial complementarity, with another type of RNA called tracrRNA to guide the Cas nuclease (e.g., Cas9) to a region homologous to the crRNA in the target DNA called a protospacer. The Cas nuclease (e.g., Cas9) cleaves DNA to generate blunt ends at double-strand breaks at sites specified by a complementary 20-nucleotide strand sequence contained within the crRNA transcript. The Cas nuclease (e.g., Cas9) in some embodiments requires both crRNA and tracrRNA to site-specific DNA recognition and cleavage. This system has now been engineered so that, in some embodiments, the crRNA and tracrRNA are combined into one molecule (the "single guide RNA" or sgRNA), and the equivalent crRNA portion of the single guide RNA is engineered to guide the Cas nuclease (e.g., Cas9) to target any target molecule. desired sequence (see, for example, (2012) Science 337:816-821; (2013) eLife 2:e00471; (2013) eLife 2:e00563).

An ideal adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based vector for gene delivery must be efficient, cell-specific, regulated, and safe. Delivery efficiency can determine the efficacy of therapy. Current efforts are aimed at achieving cell-type-specific infection and gene expression with AAV vectors. Additionally, AAV vectors are being developed to regulate gene expression, since therapy may require long-lasting or regulated expression.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small virus that infects humans and some primate species. Currently, AAV is not known to cause disease, and as a result, the virus elicits a very mild immune response. Gene therapy vectors that use AAV can infect both dividing and quiescent cells and persist in an extrachromosomal state without integrating into the host cell's genome. These characteristics make AAV a very attractive candidate for the creation of viral vectors for gene therapy and for the creation of isogenic models of human diseases.

Wild-type AAV has attracted considerable interest from gene therapy researchers because of a number of features. Chief among them is the virus's apparent lack of pathogenicity. Additionally, it can infect non-dividing cells and has the ability to stably integrate into the host cell's genome at a specific site (designated AAVS1) on the human chromosome. 19 However, the development of AAVs as gene therapy vectors has eliminated this integrative ability by removing the rep and cap genes from the vector's DNA. The desired gene, along with a promoter that drives its transcription, is inserted between ITRs that promote the formation of concatamers in the nucleus after the single-stranded vector DNA is converted into double-stranded DNA by host cell DNA polymerase complexes. AAV-based gene therapy vectors form episomal concatamers in the host cell nucleus. In non-dividing cells, these concatamers remain intact for the life of the host cell. In non-dividing cells, these concatamers are maintained throughout the life of the host cell. in?division,?AAV?DNA?is?lost?during?cell?division,?because?episomal?DNA?is?not?replicated?with?host?cell?DNA.?

The AAV genome is composed of single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ssDNA), either in positive or negative orientation, approximately 4.7 kilobases long. The genome includes inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) at both ends of the DNA strand and two open reading frames (ORFs): rep and cap. The former is composed of four overlapping genes encoding the Rep proteins required for the AAV life cycle, while the latter contains overlapping nucleotide sequences of capsid proteins: VP1, VP2, and VP3, which interact with each other to form a capsid with icosahedral symmetry.

Inverted Terminal Repeat (ITR) sequences received their name because of their symmetry, which has been shown to be necessary for efficient multiplication of the AAV genome. Another property of these sequences is their ability to form a hairpin, which contributes to so-called self-priming.

With regard to gene therapy, ITRs appear to be the only sequences required in cis next to the therapeutic gene: structural (cap) and packaging (rep) genes can be delivered in trans. Based on this assumption, several methods have been developed for the efficient production of recombinant AAV vectors (rAAV) containing a therapeutic reporter gene.

AAVs can be designated in terms of a serotype. A serotype corresponds to a variant AAV subtype that, due to its capsid surface antigen expression profile, has a distinctive reactivity that can be used to distinguish it from other variant AAV subtypes. Typically, an AAV vector particle with a particular AAV serotype will not react effectively with neutralizing antibodies specific for any other AAV serotype.

Three cellular receptors for AAV2 have been described: heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG), integrin aV5, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1). The former functions as a primary receptor, while the latter two have co-receptor activity and allow AAV to enter the cell via receptor-mediated endocytosis. HSPG functions as a primary receptor, although its abundance is low.

L'AAV6,?un?ibrido?di?AAV1?e?AAV2,?mostra?anche?una?minore?immunogenicit??rispetto?all'AAV2.?? Although AAV2 is the most popular serotype in various AAV-based studies, other serotypes have been shown to be effective as gene delivery vectors. For example, AAV6 appears to be much more effective in infecting airway epithelial cells, AAV7 has a very high transduction rate of mouse skeletal muscle cells (similar to AAV1 and AAV5), AAV8 is excellent at transducing hepatocytes and photoreceptors, while AAV1 and AAV5 have been shown to be have been shown to be highly efficient in gene delivery to vascular endothelial cells. In the brain, most AAV serotypes exhibit neuronal tropism, while AAV5 also transduces astrocytes. AAV6, a hybrid of AAV1 and AAV2, also shows lower immunogenicity than AAV2.

In? the? animals? treated with the lower dose, the reduction was complete for the CO02 vector, while in the group treated with the WT cDNA, Gb3 lysosome levels showed a 75% reduction, compared to the untreated mutant mice (Figure 7C). Determination of the integration rate by ddPCR indicated similar values for both donor constructs (Figure 7D).

GLA activity and Gb3 lysate accumulation were determined in tissues of treated mice (Figure 8). Tissue activity was in all cases higher in mice treated with hGLA CO02 cDNA (Figure 8A). Consistent with these results, we observed a complete elimination of Gb3 lysate accumulation.
