Lentiviral self-inactivating vectors are the retroviral vectors with the greatest potential for gene therapy Nondividing cells can be transduced by lentiviral vectors. They possess a low ...

What she emphasizes is the balance between risk and benefit. In 2003, a French gene-therapy trial using a retroviral therapy against X-linked severe combined immune deficiency disorder had the ...

These findings raise the question of whether retroviral VEGF gene therapy is useful for therapeutic ‘angiogenesis’ without risking ‘angioma-genesis’. Overexpression of VEGF may lead to an ...

Retroviral vector-mediated gene transfer has been central to the development of gene therapy. Retroviruses have several distinct advantages over other vectors, especially when permanent gene transfer ...

They can provide stable, long-term gene expression but can only infect dividing cells. Retroviral vectors, such as those based on murine leukemia virus (MLV), have been used in gene therapy clinical ...

They can make gene delivery easy and efficient in a number of models of disease. The Vector Development Laboratory is located within the Cell and Gene Therapy Center on the 10th floor of the Alkek ...

LMU molecular biologist Gunnar Schotta decodes the epigenetic silencing of problematic retroviral gene sequences. While each cell contains the complete genetic blueprint of an organism ...

Investigating mechanisms of normal neuronal migration in the developing brain using retroviral vectors has led to related studies of programmed cell death, oligodendrocyte development, gene therapy, ...

Charles River Laboratories has entered an agreement with German company Captain T Cell to focus on the production of plasmid ...
