Restoring ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) activity in an OTC‐deficient mouse model using LUNAR‐OTC mRNA

Abstract Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) catalyses the reaction from ornithine to citrulline in the urea cycle. Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) results in episodes of hyperammonemia. Arcturus Therapeutics developed a lipid nanoparticle (LNP)‐encapsulated OTC‐mRNA (LUNAR‐OTC) that resul...
