Abstract

As genetic defects responsible for congenital disorders are delineated at the DNA level, it is possible to design strategies to express the corrected gene in autologousderived cells (1–3). A large number of gene therapy clinical trials encompassing a broad spectrum of human diseases are in progress (4,5). Therapies to prevent and treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (6), adenosine deaminase deficiency associated with severe combined immunodeficiency disease (ADASCID) (7–11); lysosomal storage diseases (12,13), autoimmune diseases (3,14), as well as a variety of cancers (15), are ongoing. In this chapter, the authors will review the current status on gene transfer technology and discuss current findings on treatment of ADA SCID by gene therapy. In addition, five primary immunodeficiency diseases that affect the B- and T-cell lineages at various stages of differentiation will be highlighted, and the potential treatment of these diseases by gene therapy will be discussed.
