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

Sex significantly influences transduction of murine liver by recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors through an androgen-dependent pathway. [PDF]
A systematic evaluation of the influence of sex on transduction by recombinant adeno-associated viral vector (rAAV) indicated that transgene expression after liver-targeted delivery of vector particles was between 5- to 13-fold higher in male mice ...

Factors influencing in vivo transduction by recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors expressing the human factor IX cDNA. [PDF]
Long-term expression of coagulation factor IX (FIX) has been observed in murine and canine models following administration of recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vectors into either the portal vein or muscle. These studies were designed to evaluate

Enhancing transduction of the liver by adeno-associated viral vectors [PDF]
A number of distinct factors acting at different stages of the adeno-associated virus vector (AAV)-mediated gene transfer process were found to influence murine hepatocyte transduction. Foremost among these was the viral capsid protein. Self-complementary (sc) AAV pseudotyped with capsid from serotype 8 or rh.10 mediated fourfold greater hepatocyte ...

Infectivity enhancement for adenoviral transduction of canine osteosarcoma cells [PDF]
The full realization of conditionally replicative adenoviruses (CRAds) for cancer therapy has been hampered by the limited knowledge of CRAd function in vivo and particularly in an immunocompetent host. To address this issue, we previously proposed a canine adenovirus type 2 (CAV2)-based CRAd for clinical evaluation in canine patients with osteosarcoma

We have previously demonstrated that both the original γ-globin lentiviral vector (LV) GGHI and the optimized GGHI-mB-3D LV, carrying the novel regulatory elements of the 3D HPFH-1 enhancer and the 3’ β-globin UTR, can significantly increase HbF ...

Role of cyclic AMP in the control of cell-specific gene expression [PDF]
Genes have to be expressed in specific cell types at appropriate times of development dependent on external signals. cAMP signaling occurs in all cells, thus raising the question of how this signal transduction pattern is integrated into mechanisms ...

Translating the combination of gene therapy and tissue engineering for treating recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa [PDF]
The combination of gene therapy and tissue engineering is one of the most promising strategies for the treatment of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB).
