Restoration of correct β-globin mRNA splicing and HbA production by U7.BP + 623 snRNA lentiviral vector in erythroid cells. Correction of β-globin mRNA splicing and HbA production in βIVS2-654-thalassaemia/HbE erythroid progenitor cells transduced with U7.BP + 623 snRNA lentiviral vector. (A,B) correction of β-globin mRNA splicing was analysed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR labelled with Cy5-dCTP. (C,D) HbA production was analysed by HPLC. Haemoglobin of normal subject was used as control (normal); (E) Correlation analysis of correctly spliced β-globin mRNA and HbA. Correlation analysis was performed using Spearman Rank method (p < 0.05). UT, untransduced cells; Mock, mock control; SCR, scramble control; U7.BP + 623, U7.BP + 623 snRNA lentiviral vector; HbF, fetal haemoglobin; HbA, adult haemoglobin; HbE, haemoglobin E. Arrows indicate restored HbA.
