Hematopoietic stem cell gene transfer in a tumor-prone mouse model uncovers low genotoxicity of lentiviral vector integration

TL;DR: The results validate a much-needed platform to assess vector safety and provide direct evidence that prototypical lentiviral vectors have low oncogenic potential, highlighting a major rationale for application to gene therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genotoxic potential of retroviral vectors is strongly modulated by vector design and integration site selection in a mouse model of HSC gene therapy.

TL;DR: It is determined that substantially greater LV integration loads are required to approach the same oncogenic risk as gammaRVs, which strongly support the use of SIN viral vector platforms and show that ISS can substantially modulate genotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The High Mobility Group (Hmg) Boxes of the Nuclear Protein Hmg1 Induce Chemotaxis and Cytoskeleton Reorganization in Rat Smooth Muscle Cells

TL;DR: HMG1 has all the hallmarks of a molecule that can promote atherosclerosis and restenosis after vascular damage, and it is shown that HMG1 can be released by damage or necrosis of a variety of cell types, including endothelial cells.
