Generation of cell lines to complement Adenovirus vectors using recombination-mediated cassette exchange [PDF]
Background Adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) has many favourable characteristics for development as a gene therapy vector. However, the utility of current Ad5 vectors is limited by transient transgene expression, toxicity and immunogenicity.

The role of PML proteins in adenovirus type 5 infection and the type I interferon response [PDF]
Promyelocytic leukaemia (PML) proteins consist of a collection of related isoforms that are the nucleating components of sub-nuclear structures termed PML nuclear bodies (PML NBs). Numerous functions are attributed to PML and PML NBs, including a role

Adenovirus-based gene therapy approaches for hemophilia B [PDF]
Gene therapy can be used to treat devastating inherited diseases, especially diseases and patients that are not suitable for a conventional cure. The blood clotting disorder hemophilia is one of the most extensively studied monogenetic diseases in gene ...

A Community-Derived Outbreak of Adenovirus Type 3 in Children in Taiwan between 2004 and 2005
An outbreak of respiratory adenovirus infection in children was observed in northern Taiwan between November 2004 and February 2005. Using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR- RFLP) to determine the serotype(s) of 172 ...

Lipopolysaccharide is a frequent contaminant of plasmid DNA preparations and can be toxic to primary cells in the presence of adenovirus [PDF]
Endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) is commonly found as a contaminant in plasmid DNA preparations. We demonstrate here that the quantities of LPS typically contaminating DNA preparations can generate a toxicity to primary cells (primary human skin ...

Novel sequence variants of viral hexon and fibre genes in two dogs with canine adenovirus type 1-associated disease [PDF]
There is little information on sequence variation of canine adenovirus type 1 (CAdV-1), the aetiological agent of infectious canine hepatitis (ICH). This study reports hexon and fibre gene sequence variants of CAdV-1 in a dog with systemic ICH and a dog ...

Genetic characterization of equine adenovirus type 1
Two known serotypes of equine adenovirus (EAdV), equine adenovirus type 1 (EAdV-1) and equine adenovirus type 2 (EAdV-2) have been isolated from horses. EAdV-1 is predominantly associated with upper respiratory tract infections while EAdV-2 appears to be

Studies of the adenovirus 5 L1 gene aimed at developing L1 gene deficiencies for use in gene therapy vectors [PDF]
Gene therapy is a novel approach to the treatment of human disease that is in its very early stages of development. Its purpose is to add to and/or alter the pattern of gene expression in cells so as to achieve a therapeutic benefit and is being ...
