Beta thalassemia gene therapy using lentiviral vectors
Recent years, allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has proved to be the successful cure for patients with thalassemia major, however this is restricted due to limited matched-related donor. Its complications include chronic graft-versus-host disease in 5-8% of patients. So, a molecular approach, such as gene therapy for direct normal beta globin gene transmission, seems quite promising ...
متن کاملGene transfer in ovarian cancer cells: a comparison between retroviral and lentiviral vectors.
Local gene therapy could be a therapeutic option for ovarian carcinoma, a life-threatening malignancy, because of disease containment within the peritoneal cavity in most patients. Lentiviral vectors, which are potentially capable of stable transgene expression, may be useful to vehicle therapeutic molecules requiring long-term production in these tumors. To investigate this concept, we used le...
متن کاملنگاهی به ژن درمانی، پیشرفتهای اخیر و چشم انداز آینده
Human gene therapy has attracted increasing attention as a highly encouraging therapeutic approach to treat wide variety of diseases, other than genetically inherited and monogenic disorders. This approach entails the introduction and expression of a variety of nucleic acids into human target cells for therapeutic purposes. In this article, we review the history, highlights, recently progresses...
متن کاملRetroviral-Based BMP-4 In Vivo Gene Transfer Strategy with Intramedullary Viral Delivery Optimizes Transgene Expression in Rat Femur Fractures
We have developed an intramedullary delivery strategy to administer retroviral vectors expressing a therapeutic gene to promote healing of a closed rat femur fracture. This strategy involves implantation of an indwelling catheter with the stabilizing Kirschner (K)-wire during the surgery prior to fracture of the femur by the three-point bending technique. It uses the openings in the bone that w...
متن کاملGene Delivery to Mesenchymal Stem Cells
There is increasing trend in using recombinant stem cells as novel therapeutic candidates in different diseases. These studies encompass different applications from targeted homing of Mesenchymal Stromal (stem) Cells (MSC), to arming them with different cytokines. Resistance to transfection or transduction methods had urged researchers to look for better gene delivery alternates and optimizing ...
