Lentiviral Mediated Expression of Soluble Neuropilin 1 Inhibits Semaphorin 3A-mediated Collapse Activity in Vitro
Introduction: Semaphorin 3A (Sema 3A) is a secreted protein, which plays an integral part in developing the nervous system. It has collapse activity on the growth cone of dorsal root ganglia. After the development of the nervous system, Sema 3A expression decreases. Neuropilin 1 is a membrane receptor of Sema 3A. When semaphorin binds to neuropilin 1, the recruitment of oligodendrocyte precurso...
متن کاملEfficient gene targeting mediated by a lentiviral vector-associated meganuclease
Gene targeting can be achieved with lentiviral vectors delivering donor sequences along with a nuclease that creates a locus-specific double-strand break (DSB). Therapeutic applications of this system would require an appropriate control of the amount of endonuclease delivered to the target cells, and potentially toxic sustained expression must be avoided. Here, we show that the nuclease can be...
متن کاملEffect of rapamycin on immunity induced by vector-mediated dystrophin expression in mdx skeletal muscle
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Therapeutic gene replacement of a dystrophin cDNA into dystrophic muscle can provide functional dystrophin protein to the tissue. However, vector-mediated gene transfer is limited by anti-vector and anti-transgene host immunity that causes rejection of the therapeutic protein. We hypothesized that rapamycin (RAPA) ...
متن کاملExpression of Recombinant Alpha-1 Antitrypsin in CHO and COS-7 Cell Lines Using Lentiviral Vector
In this study, in order to facilitate and accelerate the production of eukaryotic protein alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) with correct post-translational modifications, a protein production system based on the transduction of CHO and COS-7 cells using lentiviral vectors was developed. Human AAT cDNA was cloned into a replication-defective lentiviral vector. The transgene AAT-Jred chimer was transferr...
متن کاملLentiviral vector-mediated transduction of adult neural stem/progenitor cells isolated from the temporal tissues of epileptic patients
Objective(s): Neural stem/progenitor cells (NS/PCs) hold a great potential for delivery of therapeutic agents into the injured regions of the brain. Efficient gene delivery using NS/PCs may correct a genetic defect, produce therapeutic proteins or neurotransmitters, and modulate enzyme activation. Here, we investigated the efficiency of a recombinant lentivirus vector ...
