Adhesion receptors mediate efficient non-viral gene delivery.
For a variety of reasons, including production limitations, potential unanticipated side effects, and an immunological response upon repeated systemic administration, virus-based vectors are as yet not ideal gene delivery vehicles, justifying further research into alternatives. Unlike viral vectors, non-viral vectors pose minimal health risks, but to meet therapeutic requirements their efficacy...
متن کاملEfficient Non-viral Gene Delivery in Vivo into Synovium
INTRODUCTION:• Gene delivery into joints is considered to become a useful strategy for the treatment of joint diseases. Viral vectors are commonly used because of their high transduction efficacies. Despite of recent improvement of the vectors, the viral vectors are associated with some unsolved problems such as induction of inflammatory responses and undesired generation of replication-compete...
متن کاملNon-Viral Delivery Systems in Gene Therapy
Recent advances in molecular biology combined with the culmination of the Human Ge‐ nome Project [1] have provided a genetic understanding of cellular processes and disease pathogenesis; numerous genes involved in disease and cellular processes have been identi‐ fied as targets for therapeutic approaches. In addition, the development of high-throughput screening techniques (e.g., cDNA microarra...
متن کاملNon-viral Smad7 gene delivery and attenuation of postoperative peritoneal adhesion in an experimental model.
BACKGROUND Postoperative intra-abdominal adhesion is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Smad7, a protein that occupies a strategic position in fibrogenesis, inhibits the transforming growth factor (TGF) beta/Smad signalling pathway. In this study the therapeutic potential of exogenous Smad7 in preventing fibrogenesis in postoperative intra-abdominal adhesion was investigated. METHO...
متن کاملTargeted, non-viral gene delivery for cancer gene therapy.
The ability to mediate targeted and specific delivery of therapeutics to cancer cells remains one of the most important hurdles in effectively treating cancer. This aspect also remains as one of the greatest limitations of gene therapy as well. Targeted vectors based on the use of DNA-binding agents attached to cell specific ligands or "molecular conjugates" were created with the goal of over-c...
