Gene transfer into murine hematopoietic stem cells with helper-free foamy virus vectors
1 Aug 2001
Abstract excerpt
Gene transfer into hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is an ideal treatment strategy for many genetic and hematologic diseases. However, progress has been limited by the low HSC transduction rates obtained with retroviral vectors based on murine leukemia viruses. This study examined the potential of vectors derived from the nonpathogenic human foamy virus (HFV) to transduce human CD34(+) cells and murine HSCs. More...
