Core Tip |
Hepatocytes derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells hold great promise for the drug discovery process, especially for Wilson’s disease (WD). Therapeutic approaches offering correction of the ATP7B mutant function and/or less toxic suppression of copper accumulation are promising and could be available shortly. In particular, protein quality control components and their regulatory networks represent attractive new targets for WD-causing mutant correction. Cell and gene therapies, however, will require more studies before they can be considered for clinical trials. A key goal for WD advancement is international cooperation of specialized centers to overcome limited availability of patients for study. |
