Intra‐articular gene delivery and expression of interleukin‐1Ra mediated by self‐complementary adeno‐associated virus
21 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The adeno-associated virus (AAV) has many safety features that favor its use in the treatment of arthritic conditions; however, the conventional, single-stranded vector is inefficient for gene delivery to fibroblastic cells that primarily populate articular tissues. This has been attributed to the inability of these cells to convert the vector to a double-stranded form. To overcome this, we evaluated...
