Figure Lengend Snippet: Decreased GAG Storage in ZFN+Donor-Treated MPS I Mice GAG levels present in the indicated tissues at 1 (A) or 4 (B) months post-treatment. Data are shown as mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, when compared to the gender-matched untreated MPS I group. n = 3 per group at 1 month and n = 4–5 per group at 4 months. (C) Levels of dermatan and heparan sulfate in mouse brain homogenates, 4 months post-treatment. Lines indicate mean of each group. All wild-type mice had levels of dermatan sulfate below the lower limit of quantification for this assay (<0.005 μg DS/mg protein lysate). *p < 0.05 for treated versus untreated male MPS I mice. For female MPS I mice, p = 0.0635 when comparing treated and untreated groups. (D) Images taken at 40× magnification from H&E-stained slides indicating the presence or absence of disease-related, highly vacuolated tissue-resident macrophages. Location of tissue resident macrophages indicated by black arrows.
