Prolonged Transgene Expression with Lentiviral Vectors in the Aqueous Humor Outflow Pathway of Nonhuman Primates
1 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
We injected lentiviral vectors into the eyes of live nonhuman primates to assess potential for glaucoma gene therapy. Anterior chambers of five cynomolgus monkeys were injected with green fluorescent protein (GFP)-encoding feline immunodeficiency viral vectors. The monkeys were monitored for in vivo transgene expression and clinical parameters. Their eyes were harvested 2-15 months postinjection for tissue...
