Novel bovine lentiviral vectors based on Jembrana disease virus

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Safety is a concern that must be addressed prior to any clinical use of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-based lentiviral vectors in human patients. Unfortunately, efforts to examine the biosafety of the vectors in preclinical animal models are hampered due to the lack of animal models for HIV infection. We have developed new lentiviral vectors based on the recently characterised Jembrana Disease...
