In utero gene transfer of human factor IX to fetal mice can induce postnatal tolerance of the exogenous clotting factor
30 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
The fundamental hypotheses behind fetal gene therapy are that it may be possible (1) to achieve immune tolerance of transgene product and, perhaps, vector; (2) to target cells and tissues that are inaccessible in adult life; (3) to transduce a high percentage of rapidly proliferating cells, and in particular stem cells, with relatively low absolute virus doses leading to clonal transgene amplification by...
