Engineering a highly durable adeno-associated virus receptor for analytical applications
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a major viral vector used in gene therapy. There are multiple AAV serotypes, and many engineered AAV serotypes are developed to alter their tissue tropisms with capsid modification.

Adeno-associated virus vectors for retinal gene therapy in basic research and clinical studies
Retinal degenerative diseases, including glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and a broad range of inherited retinal diseases, are leading causes of irreversible vision loss and blindness. Gene therapy is a promising and fast-

Syngeneic AAV Pseudo-particles Potentiate Gene Transduction of AAV Vectors
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have emerged as a safe and efficient gene therapy platform. One complication is that a significant amount of empty particles have always been generated as impurities during AAV vector production.

AAV Vectors for the Nucleolus [PDF]
During the replication of wild-type adeno-associated virus (AAV), viral capsids are assembled in the nucleolus,1 and the capsid proteins interact with the nucleolar proteins nucleolin (NCL) and nucleophosmin (NPM1), possibly promoting their transport from the cytoplasm into the nucleolus.2,3 In the case of replication-incompetent AAV vectors, the ...

AAV Vectored Immunoprophylaxis for Filovirus Infections [PDF]
Filoviruses are among the deadliest infectious agents known to man, causing severe hemorrhagic fever, with up to 90% fatality rates. The 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa resulted in over 28,000 infections, demonstrating the large-scale human health and economic impact generated by filoviruses.

Influence of Pre-existing Anti-capsid Neutralizing and Binding Antibodies on AAV Vector Transduction
Pre-existing immunity to adeno-associated virus (AAV) is highly prevalent in humans and can profoundly impact transduction efficiency. Despite the relevance to AAV-mediated gene transfer, relatively little is known about the fate of AAV vectors in the ...
