Journal ArticleDOI

Whole transcriptome characterization of aberrant splicing events induced by lentiviral vector integrations

TL;DR: It is found that SIN LV has a sharply reduced propensity to engage in aberrant splicing compared with that of vectors carrying active LTRs, and by recoding the identified vector splice sites, reduced residual read-through transcription and demonstrated an effective strategy for improving vectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of haematopoietic cells and endothelial progenitors in tumour angiogenesis

TL;DR: Bone marrow-derived cells include haematopoietic cell lineages and the recently described endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), which are thought to directly incorporate into nascent blood vessels as bona fide endothelial cells ("building block" role).
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic and Targeted Delivery of Semaphorin 3A Inhibits Tumor Angiogenesis and Progression in Mouse Tumor Models

TL;DR: It is shown that the expression of the receptor neuropilin-1 in tumor cells is required for SEMA3A-dependent inhibition of tumor cell migration in vitro and metastatic spreading in vivo, and these data support the rationale for further investigation of SEMA2A as an anticancer molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatocyte Growth Factor Is a Regulator of Monocyte-Macrophage Function

TL;DR: It is reported that HGF induces directional migration and cytokine secretion in human monocytes, and this data indicates that monocyte function is modulated by HGF in a paracrine/autocrine manner, and provide a new link between stromal environment and mononuclear phagocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applications of gene therapy to the CNS

TL;DR: A new lentiviral vector is focused on as a recent gene transfer method and degenerative disorders of the CNS, and their related model systems.
