Suicide Gene Therapy Mediated with Exosomes Produced by Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells Stably Transduced with HSV Thymidine Kinase
28 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) prepared from various human tissues were stably transduced with the suicide gene herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSVTK) by means of retrovirus infection. HSVTK-transduced MSCs express the suicide gene and in prodrug ganciclovir (GCV) presence induced cell death by intracellular conversion of GCV to GCV-triphosphate. The homogenous population of HSVTK-MSCs were found to...
