Gene transfer to rabbit retina with electron avalanche transfection.
PURPOSE Nonviral gene therapy represents a promising treatment for retinal diseases, given clinically acceptable methods for efficient gene transfer. Electroporation is widely used for transfection, but causes significant collateral damage and a high rate of cell death, especially in applications in situ. This study was conducted in the interest of developing efficient and less toxic forms of g...
متن کاملSelective Gene Transfer to the Retina Using Intravitreal Ultrasound Irradiation
This paper aims to evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal ultrasound (US) irradiation for green fluorescent protein (GFP) plasmid transfer into the rabbit retina using a miniature US transducer. Intravitreal US irradiation was performed by a slight modification of the transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy system utilizing a small probe. After vitrectomy, the US probe was inserted through a scl...
متن کاملElectron Avalanche Statistics
Since the times of the founders of streamer theory — Raether [1], Loeb [2] and Meek [3] — a special attention has been paid to high populated electron avalanches possessing potential to overgrowing into streamers. One of the basic problem that has not been resolved so far concerns anomalous statistical behavior of big avalanches with electron populations n > 10. The mentioned anomaly consists i...
متن کاملOptimization of gene transfer with Agrobacterium to Bonab tomato cultivar using chitinase gene
Tomato is an important economic crop with nutritional and scientific value for study. Due to its agronomic importance and sensitivity to biotic and abiotic stresses, using new methods in breeding this crop is necessary. In this study, the effects of some factors, such as pre-cultivation time (1, 2, 3 and 4 days), Agrobacterium concentration (OD600nm = 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1), inoculation time (5,...
متن کاملIn utero AAV-mediated gene transfer to rabbit pulmonary epithelium.
In utero intra-amniotic administration of adeno-associated virus (AAV) for treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) has the potential to be an efficient way to target the rapidly dividing undifferentiated cells of the fetal pulmonary epithelium, while simultaneously treating other tissues involved in CF (such as the intestines), but has never before been studied. Intra-amniotic administration of 1x10(...
