Treatment of Leber Congenital Amaurosis Due to RPE65 Mutations by Ocular Subretinal Injection of Adeno-Associated Virus Gene Vector: Short-Term Results of a Phase I Trial

TL;DR: A recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 2 vector, altered to carry the human RPE65 gene (rAAV2-CBSB-hRPE65) restored vision in animal models with R PE65 deficiency, and Comparisons are drawn between the present work and two other studies of ocular gene therapy for RPE 65-LCA that were carried out contemporaneously and reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stable in vivo expression of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator with an adeno-associated virus vector.

TL;DR: AAV vectors do efficiently promote in vivo gene transfer to the airway epithelium which is stable over several months and indicates that AAV-CFTR vectors could potentially be very useful for gene therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutational Analysis of the Adeno-Associated Virus Type 2 (AAV2) Capsid Gene and Construction of AAV2 Vectors with Altered Tropism

TL;DR: In vitro experiments showed that insertion of the serpin receptor ligand in the N-terminal regions of VP1 or VP2 can change the tropism of AAV, and these results provide information on AAV capsid functional domains and are useful for future design of A AV vectors for targeting of specific tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defective regulation of outwardly rectifying Cl− channels by protein kinase A corrected by insertion of CFTR

TL;DR: It is reported here that expression of recombinant CF genes using adeno-associated virus vectors in CF bronchial epithelial cells corrects defective Cl− secretion, that it induces the appearance of small, linear conductance Cl− channels, and restores protein kinase A activation of outwardly rectifying Cl − channels.
