10.02.2015 - (idw) Paul-Ehrlich-Institut - Bundesinstitut fr Impfstoffe und biomedizinische Arzneimittel Therapeutic gene transfer is considered as a promising novel strategy to treat genetic disorders and cancer. So far, target cells are often isolated from patients for this purpose, and re-administered after gene transfer. In collaboration with colleagues from the Universities of Cologne and Zurich, researchers at the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut have succeeded in developing gene transfer vehicles that target the therapy relevant cell type directly in the organism. The resulting gene transfer occurs with an extremely high degree of selectivity. A report on the research results can be found in Nature Communications in its online edition of 10.02.2015. Vectors derived from adeno-associated viruses (AAV) were used as vehicles for targeted gene transfer by the research group of Professor Christian J. Buchholz, Principal Investigator at the LOEWE Centre for Cell and Gene Therapy at Frankfurt am Main and head of the Section Molecular Biotechnology and Gene Therapy of the President of the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut. AAV is a non-pathogenic parvovirus. The only gene therapy medicinal product authorised in Europe so far, is also based on AAV gene vectors and intended for the treatment of a rare metabolic disorder. The strategy for the generation of … Continue reading
