Journal ArticleDOI

Mutation in the α-synuclein gene identified in families with Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: A mutation was identified in the α-synuclein gene, which codes for a presynaptic protein thought to be involved in neuronal plasticity, in the Italian kindred and in three unrelated families of Greek origin with autosomal dominant inheritance for the PD phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic analysis of families with Parkinson disease that carry the Ala53Thr mutation in the gene encoding alpha-synuclein.

TL;DR: This work aims to demonstrate the importance of knowing the carrier and removal status of canine coronavirus, as a source of infection for other animals, not necessarily belonging to the same breeds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene transfer into human hematopoietic progenitor cells with an episomal vector carrying an S/MAR element.

TL;DR: The results provide the first evidence that S/MAR-based plasmids can function as stable episomes in primary human cells, supporting long-term transgene expression, and do not display universal behavior in all cell types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic modification of hematopoietic stem cells with nonviral systems : past progress and future prospects

TL;DR: It is argued that episomally maintained self-replicating vectors combined with physical methods of delivery show the greatest promise among nonviral gene transfer strategies for the treatment of disorders of the hematopoietic system.
