摘要
Significant advances have been made in the field of liver-directed gene therapy. Many diseases are potential targets for gene therapy, including diseases that have exclusive liver involvement and those with systemic manifestations as a result of defective protein synthesis from the liver. Examples are Crigler-Najjar syndrome type 1, α1-antitrypsin deficiency and haemophilia A and B.
