Advances in Lentivirus Purification [PDF]
AbstractLentiviral vectors (LVs) have been increasingly used as a tool for gene and cell therapies since they can stably integrate the genome in dividing and nondividing cells. LV production and purification processes have evolved substantially over the last decades.

RNA interference (RNAi) is a system of gene silencing in living cells. In RNAi, genes homologous in sequence to short interfering RNAs (siRNA) are silenced at the post-transcriptional state. Short hairpin RNAs, precursors to siRNA, can be expressed using lentivirus, allowing for RNAi in a variety of cell types.

Restriction of lentivirus in monkeys [PDF]
Retroviruses are able to cross species barriers and have done so many times throughout evolution. Perhaps as a consequence, dominant mechanisms have arisen to block infection by murine retroviruses in mice (restriction factor Fv1) and humans (restriction factor Ref1), as well as in other mammals.

An endogenous lentivirus in the germline of a rodent
AbstractLentiviruses (genus Lentivirus) are complex retroviruses that infect a broad range of mammals, including humans. Unlike many other retrovirus genera, lentiviruses have only rarely been incorporated into the mammalian germline. However, a small number of endogenous retrovirus (ERV) lineages have been identified, and these rare genomic “fossils ...

Fibrin-mediated lentivirus gene transfer: Implications for lentivirus microarrays [PDF]
We employed fibrin hydrogel as a bioactive matrix for lentivirus mediated gene transfer. Fibrin-mediated gene transfer was highly efficient and exhibited strong dependence on fibrinogen concentration. Efficient gene transfer was achieved with fibrinogen concentration between 3.75 and 7.5mg/ml.

Retrogradely Transportable Lentivirus Tracers for Mapping Spinal Cord Locomotor Circuits
Retrograde tracing is a key facet of neuroanatomical studies involving long distance projection neurons. Previous groups have utilized a variety of tools ranging from classical chemical tracers to newer methods employing viruses for gene delivery.

Molecular Studies of HTLV-1 Replication: An Update
Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) was the first human retrovirus discovered. Studies on HTLV-1 have been instrumental for our understanding of the molecular pathology of virus-induced cancers.
