Adenovirus-mediated Gene Transfer to Liver Grafts
Background. Adenoviral gene therapy in liver transplantation has many potential applications, but current vector delivery methods to grafts lack efficiency and require high titers. In this study, we attempted to improve gene delivery efficacy using three different delivery methods to liver grafts with adenoviral vector encoding the LacZ marker gene (AdLacZ). Methods. AdLacZ was delivered to col...
متن کاملAdenovirus-Mediated Gene Transfer In Vivo to Cerebral Blood Vessels and Perivascular Tissue in Mice
Background and Purpose—Gene transfer to cerebral blood vessels has been accomplished in rats and dogs by injection of replication-deficient adenovirus into cerebrospinal fluid. In this study we examined transgene expression after injection of adenovirus into the cerebrospinal fluid of mice. Responses were observed in ICR mice and C57BL/6 mice, which are outbred and inbred strains, respectively....
متن کاملAdenovirus-mediated gene transfer in vivo to cerebral blood vessels and perivascular tissue.
Gene transfer to blood vessels in vivo generally requires interruption of blood flow. Thus, gene transduction to cerebral blood vessels in vivo has not yet been achieved. In this study, we injected replication-deficient adenovirus into cerebrospinal fluid in an attempt to transduce genes to cerebral blood vessels. Recombinant adenovirus (1 x 10(9) infectious units) expressing nuclear-targeted b...
متن کاملGene transfer into normal and atherosclerotic human blood vessels.
Gene transfer to blood vessels is a promising new approach to the treatment of the vascular diseases, but the feasibility of gene transfer to adult human vessels has not been explored. We introduced an adenovirus vector encoding a marker gene human placental alkaline phosphatase into normal and atherosclerotic human vessels in organ culture. In the normal vessels, recombinant gene was expressed...
متن کاملLow-efficiency of percutaneous adenovirus-mediated arterial gene transfer in the atherosclerotic rabbit.
Recombinant adenoviruses are the most efficient vectors with which to perform arterial gene transfer. Previous in vivo studies of adenovirus-mediated arterial transfection, however, have been performed using normal or endothelium-denuded arteries. It is unclear whether these results can be extended to atherosclerotic arteries. Accordingly, this study was designed to (a) assess the feasibility o...
