Liposome-mediated gene transfer into human vascular smooth muscle cells.
BACKGROUND Complexing recombinant DNA with cationic liposomes is a convenient means of introducing foreign genes into cells (lipofection) and could potentially form the basis for genetically modifying diseased blood vessels in patients. The mechanism of lipofection is incompletely understood, but it is recognized that the degree of successful gene transfer is highly dependent on cell type. To d...
متن کاملLiposome mediated gene transfer into the rat oesophagus.
BACKGROUND Cancer of the oesophagus has so far eluded every attempt at pharmacological treatment. The recent advent of somatic gene therapy offers a new therapeutic approach to malignant tumours. AIM To investigate whether and how gene transfer into the oesophagus can be achieved. METHODS A LacZ reporter gene was used as marker and transferred into the oesophagus of rats using cationic lipo...
متن کاملCationic liposome-mediated gene delivery in vivo.
Several improvements have been made in liposomal delivery, thus making this technology potentially useful for treatment of certain diseases in the clinic. Success in non-viral delivery is complicated and requires optimization of several components. These components include nucleic acid purification, plasmid design, formulation of the delivery vehicle, administration route and schedule, dosing, ...
متن کاملSperm-mediated gene transfer.
Since 1989, a new method for the production of transgenic animals has been available, namely sperm-mediated gene transfer (SMGT), based on the intrinsic ability of sperm cells to bind and internalise exogenous DNA molecules and to transfer them into the oocyte at fertilisation. We first described the SMGT procedure in a small animal model, with high efficiency reported in the mouse. In addition...
متن کاملP-85: Epididymal Sperm Parameters following Sperm Mediated Gene Transfer of EDFP-pIRES Vector in Rat
Background: Sperm mediated gene transfer was approved for producing transgenic animals. There are many studies which reported different success rate by this procedure. Failure in this project mostly is returned to transfection and stability of transferred genes. The other problem that may contribute in project failure may return to the testicular damages which occur at the time of transfection,...
