Optimized protocols for γδ T cell expansion and lentiviral transduction. [PDF]
γδ T cells are a subset of unconventional T cells that serve a critical role in infectious diseases and various types of cancer. Cell therapy with genetically‑modified γδ T cells is regarded as a promising tool for tumor treatment. However, since γδ T cells constitute a minority of T cells, their large‑scale expansion is difficult to realize in an ...

A protocol for lentiviral transduction and downstream analysis of intestinal organoids. [PDF]
Intestinal crypt-villus structures termed organoids, can be kept in sustained culture three dimensionally when supplemented with the appropriate growth factors. Since organoids are highly similar to the original tissue in terms of homeostatic stem cell differentiation, cell polarity and presence of all terminally differentiated cell types known to the ...

Vpx-Independent Lentiviral Transduction and shRNA-Mediated Protein Knock-Down in Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells. [PDF]
The function of dendritic cells (DCs) in the immune system is based on their ability to sense and present foreign antigens. Powerful tools to research DC function and to apply in cell-based immunotherapy are either silencing or overexpression of genes ...

CD20 and CD19 targeted vectors induce minimal activation of resting B lymphocytes [PDF]
B lymphocytes are an important cell population of the immune system. However, until recently it was not possible to transduce resting B lymphocytes with retro- or lentiviral vectors, making them unsusceptible for genetic manipulations by these vectors ...

Combined effects of restriction factors and transduction adjuvants on lentiviral vector gene transfer efficacy [PDF]
Restriction factors include various cellular proteins that detect and impede viral infections. Among them, interferon-induced transmembrane (IFITM) and serine incorporator (SERINC) proteins interfere with the infectious cycle of HIV-1. Consequently, such

Process for an efficient lentiviral cell transduction [PDF]
Abstract The combination of lentiviruses with techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 has resulted in efficient and precise processes for targeted genome modification. An often-limiting aspect, however, is the efficiency of cell transduction. Low efficiencies with particular cell types and/or the high complexity of lentiviral libraries can cause ...

Rescue of splicing-mediated intron loss maximizes expression in lentiviral vectors containing the human ubiquitin C promoter. [PDF]
Lentiviral vectors almost universally use heterologous internal promoters to express transgenes. One of the most commonly used promoter fragments is a 1.2-kb sequence from the human ubiquitin C (UBC) gene, encompassing the promoter, some enhancers, first
