Animal Models for Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery
Hydrodynamic gene delivery (HGD) is an established method of the last decade where macromolecules, non-normally permeable to cell membrane, are delivered intracellular. The basic principle is that a large volume of solution, containing genes or oligonucleotides, RNA, proteins or other compounds, is infused rapidly in circulation to permit the entrance of these substances to parenchymal cells. E...
متن کاملImage-Guided Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery: Current Status and Future Directions
Hydrodynamics-based delivery has been used as an experimental tool to express transgene in small animals. This in vivo gene transfer method is useful for functional analysis of genetic elements, therapeutic effect of oligonucleotides, and cancer cells to establish the metastatic cancer animal model for experimental research. Recent progress in the development of image-guided procedure for hydro...
متن کاملEffects of Fibrotic Tissue on Liver-targeted Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery
Hydrodynamic gene delivery is a common method for gene transfer to the liver of small animals, and its clinical applicability in large animals has been demonstrated. Previous studies focused on functional analyses of therapeutic genes in animals with normal livers and little, however, is known regarding its effectiveness and safety in animals with liver fibrosis. Therefore, this study aimed to ...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Resistance Reduction in Catamaran Assisted Hydrofoils
The present paper contains the test results of a planing catamaran model. The aim of the tests was to study the effect of hydrofoil in these types of crafts. First, experiments were carried out on the bare body (i.e. without hydrofoils) to obtain non-dimensional hydrodynamic resistance coefficient versus speed. Then, the model with hydrofoils, by various locations and attack angles were subject...
متن کاملSafety Assessment of Liver-Targeted Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery in Dogs
Evidence in support of safety of a gene delivery procedure is essential toward gene therapy. Previous studies using the hydrodynamics-based procedure primarily focus on gene delivery efficiency or gene function analysis in mice. The current study focuses on an assessment of the safety of computer-controlled and liver-targeted hydrodynamic gene delivery in dogs as the first step toward hydrodyna...
