The genetic defect - Adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency may be cured permanently by:
-
- administering adenosine deaminase activators.
- introducing bone marrow cells producing ADA into cells at early embryonic stages.
- enzyme replacement therapy.
- periodic infusion of genetically engineered lymphocytes having functional ADA cDNA.
