Visualization of targeted transduction by engineered lentiviral vectors [PDF]
We have reported a method to target lentiviral vectors to specific cell types. This method requires the incorporation of two distinct molecules on the viral vector surface: one is an antibody that renders the targeting specificity for the engineered vector, and the other is a fusogenic protein that allows the engineered vector to enter the target cell.

Expression of a large coding sequence: Gene therapy vectors for Ataxia Telangiectasia
Ataxia telangiectasia is a monogenetic disorder caused by mutations in the ATM gene. Its encoded protein kinase ATM plays a fundamental role in DNA repair of double strand breaks (DSBs).

Driving DNA transposition by lentiviral protein transduction [PDF]
Gene vectors derived from DNA transposable elements have become powerful molecular tools in biomedical research and are slowly moving into the clinic as carriers of therapeutic genes. Conventional uses of DNA transposon-based gene vehicles rely on the intracellular production of the transposase protein from transfected nucleic acids.

Integrase-deficient lentiviral vectors mediate efficient gene transfer to human vascular smooth muscle cells with minimal genotoxic risk [PDF]
We have previously shown that injury-induced neointima formation was rescued by adenoviral-Nogo-B gene delivery. Integrase-competent lentiviral vectors (ICLV) are efficient at gene delivery to vascular cells but present a risk of insertional mutagenesis.

Hormokines : a novel concept of plasticity in neuro-endo-immunology [PDF]
Hormones are produced by endocrine and neuroendocrine cells and mediate mainly systemic effects. Cytokines are produced by numerous cell types and mediate local effects.
