Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a group of metabolic disorders caused by defects in lysosomal proteins leading to accumulation of undigested macromolecules within the cells. The lack of good in vitro models hinders research of the pathophysiologic mechanisms and the development of new therapies. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are patient-specific and can be differentiated in any cell type. The advantage of iPSCs is to enable targeted studies in cells with the patient’s own background leading to more straightforward results than other models. Combining CRISPR and iPSCs is, therefore, a promising strategy. We aim to use CRISPR/Cas-mediated gene editing to provide more specific cellular models of disease, to correct causal mutations in LSDs and to create mutants for functional studies. In this work, we generated and characterized iPSCs from human fibroblasts obtained from Gaucher and Fabry patients (through Gaslini Institute) and will edit them with a CRISP/Cas9 approach. Because both gene editing and iPSCs generation require manipulating the cell’s genome, we envisage multiple check points along the workflow. It will be useful to compare the “native” mutated cells with the corrected cells that modulate the “disease in a dish”. Gene editing is still recent and the methods require improvement, namely increasing transfection rates and mutagenesis efficiency with less off-targets. Nevertheless, CRISPR/Cas is a promising alternative to other therapies, and every result contributes to the enhancement of this technology, broadening the validation of CRISPR application and making it an accessible option.FCT Funding: PTDC/BIM-MEC/4762/2014ElsevierRepositório Científico do Instituto Nacional de SaúdeAmaral, OlgaDuarte, AnaRibeiro, DiogoMoreira, Luciana2020-05-03T18:38:49Z2019-02-022019-02-02T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.18/6588engMol Genet Metab. 2019 Feb2;126(2):S101-S102. doi:10.1016/j.ymgme.2018.12.2551096-719210.1016/j.ymgme.2018.12.255info:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-20T15:41:45Zoai:repositorio.insa.pt:10400.18/6588Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:41:40.170835Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
