Gene Therapy For Eye Pathologies

Abstract:

Compositions and methods are described for the delivery of therapeutic products (such as therapeutic proteins (for example, antibodies), therapeutic RNAs (for example, shRNAs, siRNAs, and miRNAs), and therapeutic aptamers) to the retina/vitreal humour in the eyes of human subjects to treat pathologies of the eye, involving, for example, recombinant viral vectors such as recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors.
