No More Transplants? New Gene Therapy Targets Blood Stem Cells Directly

Researchers have identified an early postnatal window that allows gene transfer to circulating blood stem cells, advancing the development of potential treatments for genetic disorders. A team of scientists from the San Raffaele-Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-Tiget) in Milan, Italy, has discovered a specific period shortly after birth when circulating blood stem cells can […]
