A dominant mutation in the gene coding for the vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein B (VAPB) was associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a fatal paralytic disorder characterized by the selective loss of motoneurons in the brain and ...
Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) provokes a DNA damage response that mimics a stalled replication fork. We have previously shown that this response is dependent on ataxia telangiectasia-mutated and Rad3- related kinase and involves recruitment of DNA r ...
Transgenic animals are essential research tools, whether to address basic biological questions or to develop preclinical models of human diseases. Their generation through the injection of naked plasmid DNA into the male pronucleus of a fertilized oocyte h ...
Throughout these last years, many synthetic polymers have been developed for non-viral gene delivery systems in attempt to overcome potential shortcomings of viral vectors. However, it is still difficult to achieve highly efficient transfection under physi ...
Tissue Engineering points to maintain, restore or to improve and create new tissues. This purpose typically involves the selection of a natural or synthetic biomaterial as a scaffold to create the biological substitutes. Furthermore, angiogenesis, the grow ...
BACKGROUND: RNA-based approaches are promising for long-term gene therapy against HIV-1. They can target virtually any step of the viral replication cycle. It is also possible to combine anti-HIV-1 transgenes targeting different facets of HIV replication t ...
The kinetics of polyethylenimine (PEI)-mediated gene transfer at early times after transfection of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell in suspension were investigated using a novel in vitro assay. Addition of an excess of competitor DNA to the culture medium ...
Human neural progenitor cells (hNPC) hold great potential as an ex vivo system for delivery of therapeutic proteins to the central nervous system. When cultured as aggregates, termed neurospheres, hNPC are capable of significant in vitro expansion. In the ...
The HIV-1 regulatory proteins Tat and Rev are encoded by multiply spliced mRNAs that differ by the use of alternative 3' splice sites at the beginning of the internal exon. If these internal exons are skipped, the expression of these genes, and hence HIV-1 ...
In an effort to develop an encapsulated cell-based system to deliver arylsulfatase A (ARSA) to the central nervous system of metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) patients, we engineered C2C12 mouse myoblasts with a retroviral vector containing a full-length ...
