    scAAV-mediated gene transfer of interleukin-1-receptor antagonist to synovium and articular cartilage in large mammalian joints

    With the long-term goal of develo** a gene-based treatment for osteoarthritis (OA), we performed studies to evaluate the equine joint as a model for adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene transfer to lar...

    A simple, lanthanide-based method to enhance the transduction efficiency of adenovirus vectors

    Based upon the powerful bridging and charge-masking properties of lanthanide cations (Ln3+), we have investigated their use to improve the transduction efficiency of adenovirus vectors. Using a luciferase marker ...

    Gene Therapy for Autoimmune Disorders

    Although many autoimmune disorders do not have a strong genetic basis, their treatment may nevertheless be improved by gene therapies. Most strategies seek to transfer genes encoding immunomodulatory products ...

    Genetic enhancement of fracture repair: healing of an experimental segmental defect by adenoviral transfer of the BMP-2 gene

    This study evaluated the ability of gene transfer to enhance bone healing. Segmental defects were created surgically in the femora of New Zealand white rabbits. First generation adenoviruses were used as vecto...

    Intra-articular delivery of a herpes simplex virus IL-1Ra gene vector reduces inflammation in a rabbit model of arthritis

    To evaluate the use of HSV-based vectors for arthritis gene therapy we have constructed a first-generation, ICP4 deficient, replication defective herpes simplex virus (HSV) vector (S/0−) and a second-generatio...
