Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has become an important gene delivery vector for the treatment of inherited retinal degenerative diseases. Many of the mutations leading to retinal degeneration are inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern and can produce toxic gain-of-function and/or dominant-negative effects. Here we describe an allele-independent gene therapy strategy with rAAV to treat autosomal-dominant retinal degenerative diseases. In this methodology, we co-deliver a short-hairpin RNA (shRNA) to inhibit expression of both the toxic and (WT) copies of the gene as well as an shRNA-resistant cDNA for functional gene replacement with a rAAV.
