“…Metabolic disorders mainly affect a few organs, including the liver, intestine, and pancreas of the body. Among them, the liver is a preferable target organ for gene therapy, and many types of AAV, such as AAV8, AAV9, and AAV-DJ, have strong cytotropism for the liver [176,177]. Therefore, based on CRISPR-mediated gene editing, researchers have developed various gene therapy approaches for treating metabolic diseases of the liver, such as familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), hepatorenal tyrosinemia type 1 (HT1), phenylketonuria (PKU), and so on.…”
