Adeno-associated and Herpes Simplex Viruses as Vectors for Gene Transfer to the Corneal Endothelium
1 May 2000
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: We examined the efficacy and cytopathogenicity of adeno-associated (AAV) and herpes simplex viruses (HSV) as vectors for gene transfer to corneal endothelial cells (CECs). METHODS: Recombinant AAV and HSV were examined for their ability to deliver a lacZ histochemical marker gene to whole-thickness rabbit and human corneas ex vivo. Transgene expression was detected with histochemistry and quantified by a...
