With the exception of the formation of liver tumors in some mice, the results of the gene therapy experiments in mice engineered to mimic a human disease called mucopolysaccharidosis type VII were encouraging.
The mice were born with mucopolysaccharidosis Type VII, a disfiguring and eventually fatal disease caused by mutations in the genes that code for beta-glucuronidase.
In humans the same disease, known as mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPS VII), remains largely incurable.
