Hybrid HIV/MSCV LTR Enhances Transgene Expression of Lentiviral Vectors in Human CD34<sup>+</sup>Hematopoietic Cells
1 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
HIV-based lentiviral vectors can transduce nondividing cells, an important advantage over murine leukemia virus (MLV)-based vectors when transducing slowly dividing hematopoietic stem cells. However, we find that in human CD34(+) hematopoietic cells, the HIV-based vectors with an internal cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter express transgenes 100- to 1,000-fold less than the MLV-based retroviral vector murine stem...
