Granulocyte–colony stimulating factor plus plerixafor in patients with β-thalassemia major results in the effective mobilization of primitive CD34+ cells with specific gene expression profile

Successful gene therapy for β-thalassemia requires optimal numbers of autologous gene-transduced hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with high repopulating capacity. Previous studies suggested superior mobilization in these patients by the combination of granulocyte–colony stimulating fa...
