It is demonstrated that lentiviral vectors are highly effective for gene transfer to human HSC, and that SFFV regulatory sequences can be successfully incorporated to enhance the long-term expression of a transgene in primary human hematopoietic cells in vivo.

A vesicular stomatitis virus G envelope protein (VSV-G)-pseudotyped human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) lentiviral-based vector system is used to transduce cord blood (CB) CD34+ cells over a limited time period and significant gene marking was observed in engrafted human lymphoid, myeloid, and progenitor cells in all transplanted Severe Combined Immunodeficient mice.

In a murine model of stem cell gene therapy for X-CGD, the chimeric vector resulted in high levels of gp91(phox) expression in committed myeloid cells and granulocytes, and restored normal NADPH-oxidase activity, suggesting that the Chimeric promoter will have utility for gene therapy of myeloids lineage disorders such as CGD.
