Abstract
This review surveys the potential application of gene therapy to metabolic diseases. Proof of principle has been achieved in the treatment of two inherited immunodeficiency conditions. A significant safety issue has also been observed. Several strategies are being experimentally tested for a number of metabolic diseases (more than 20) and may provide a rationale for the future development of clinical trials.Entities:
