Species-Specific Differences in Mouse and Human Airway Epithelial Biology of Recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus Transduction
29 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
Differences in airway epithelial biology between mice and humans have presented challenges to evaluating gene therapies for cystic fibrosis (CF) using murine models. In this context, recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) type 2 and rAAV5 vectors have very different transduction efficiencies in human air-liquid interface (ALI) airway epithelia (rAAV2 approximately = rAAV5) as compared with mouse lung (rAAV5 >>...
