Long-Term, Targeted Genetic Modification of the Aqueous Humor Outflow Tract Coupled with Noninvasive Imaging of Gene Expression In Vivo
23 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To address a problem impeding research into glaucoma-associated genetic mutations and glaucoma gene therapy and achieve permanent, targeted transgene expression in the trabecular meshwork (TM). Lentiviral vectors are known to transduce human donor eye TM ex vivo, but efficacy in vivo has not been shown. More generally in the field of gene therapy, the authors hypothesized that distinctive properties of...
