Abstract excerpt
Unlike the development of drugs based on small chemical entities there are no conventional regulatory toxicity studies established for DNA-based products. As the potential for insertional mutagenesis is of particular concern for gene therapy, we have investigated the mutagenicity of model non-viral DNA-based products at the HPRT locus in Chinese hamster V79 cells. Cultures were transfected with a pL3112BSKS...
