Immunogenicity and toxicity of AAV gene therapy
Gene transfer using adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors has made tremendous progress in the last decade and has achieved cures of debilitating diseases such as hemophilia A and B.

Vectors based on adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are promising therapeutic modalities used in gene therapy. Robust cell-based assays that demonstrate and quantify the potency of AAV vectors in expressing their transgene are needed for clinical ...

Reducing the Risk of Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vector Mobilization with AAV Type 5 Vectors [PDF]
Current adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy vectors package a transgene flanked by the terminal repeats (TRs) of AAV type 2 (AAV2). Although these vectors are replication deficient, wild-type (wt) AAV2 prevalent in the human population could lead ...

Adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors are attractive tools for central nervous system (CNS) gene therapy because some vectors can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB), allowing them to be used as minimally invasive treatments.

Redirecting AAV vectors to extrahepatic tissues
Recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors are the current benchmark for systemic delivery of gene therapies to multiple organs in vivo. Despite clinical successes, safe and effective gene delivery to extrahepatic tissues has proven challenging due to dose limiting toxicity arising from high liver uptake of AAV vectors.

Rab1A Promotes Hepatic Steatosis by Suppressing Mitophagy via the Raf‐1/ERK1/2/PINK1 Signaling Axis
Why does fat accumulate in the liver? Our study reveals Rab1A as the molecular switch that silences the cell's mitochondrial cleanup crew. Turning Rab1A off reactivates mitophagy, clears excess fat, and reverses fatty liver disease in mice—offering a promising new therapeutic target for MASLD, a growing global health challenge.

The muscular dystrophies are a group of devastating genetic disorders that affect both skeletal and cardiac muscle. An effective gene therapy for these diseases requires bodywide muscle delivery.

ABSTRACT Gonadotropin‐inhibitory hormone (GnIH, also known as RFamide‐related peptide‐3, RFRP‐3) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that regulates vertebrate reproduction via its receptor GPR147. Although GnIH is known to mediate stress‐induced reproductive suppression, its role in broader stress responses remains unclear.

LARGE GENE DELIVERY TO THE RETINA BY MULTIPLE AAV VECTORS [PDF]
Retinal gene therapy with adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors is safe and effective yet it is limited by AAV cargo capacity of about 5 kb. AAV transfer capacity which is expanded by dual AAV up to 9 kb would still not suffice for treatment of inherited ...
