Adeno-associated viral vector transduction of human mesenchymal stem cells.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have received considerable attention in the emerging field of regenerative medicine. One aspect of MSC research focuses on genetically modifying the cells with the aim of enhancing their regenerative potential. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) holds promise as a vector for human gene therapy, primarily due to its lack of pathogenicity and low risk of insertional mutage...
متن کاملAdeno-associated viral vector delivers cardiac-specific and hypoxia-inducible VEGF expression in ischemic mouse hearts.
It has been shown that the adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector can deliver the VEGF gene efficiently into the ischemic mouse myocardium. However, the AAV genomes can be found in extracardiac organs after intramyocardial injection. To limit unwanted VEGF expression in organs other than the heart, we tested the use of the cardiac myosin light chain 2v (MLC-2v) promoter and the hypoxia-response el...
متن کاملAdeno-associated viral vector-mediated hypoxia response element-regulated gene expression in mouse ischemic heart model.
Intramyocardial injection of genes encoding angiogenic factors could provide a useful approach for the treatment of ischemic heart disease. However, uncontrolled expression of angiogenic factors in vivo may cause some unwanted side effects, such as hemangioma formation, retinopathy, and arthritis. It may also induce occult tumor growth and artherosclerotic plaque progression. Because hypoxia-in...
متن کاملIntracellular viral processing, not single-stranded DNA accumulation, is crucial for recombinant adeno-associated virus transduction.
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a unique gene transfer vector which takes approximately 4 to 6 weeks to reach its expression plateau. The mechanism for this slow-rise expression profile was proposed to be inefficient second-strand DNA synthesis from the input single-stranded (ss) DNA viral genome. In order to clarify the status of ss AAV genomes, we generated AAV vectors labeled with bromodeoxy...
متن کاملModified infusion procedures affect recombinant adeno-associated virus vector type 2 transduction in the liver.
Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors have therapeutic potential for the treatment of several types of liver diseases including hepato-deficiency disorders. Most of the preclinical and clinical applications involve the use of adeno-associated vector serotype 2 (AAV-2). However, when this vector is delivered at high doses into the portal vein or hepatic artery, a relatively small num...
