TLDR
This review samples a few of the more prominent examples from the ever-expanding list of published lentiviral pseudotypes, noting comparisons made with pseudotypes involving VSV-G in terms of titer, viral particle stability, toxicity, and host-cell specificity.Abstract:
The host range of retroviral vectors including lentiviral vectors can be expanded or altered by a process known as pseudotyping Pseudotyped lentiviral vectors consist of vector particles bearing glycoproteins (GPs) derived from other enveloped viruses Such particles possess the tropism of the virus from which the GP was derived For example, to exploit the natural neural tropism of rabies virus, vectors designed to target the central nervous system have been pseudotyped using rabies virus-derived GPs Among the first and still most widely used GPs for pseudotyping lentiviral vectors is the vesicular stomatitis virus GP (VSV-G), due to the very broad tropism and stability of the resulting pseudotypes Pseudotypes involving VSV-G have become effectively the standard for evaluating the efficiency of other pseudotypes This review samples a few of the more prominent examples from the ever-expanding list of published lentiviral pseudotypes, noting comparisons made with pseudotypes involving VSV-G in terms of titer, viral particle stability, toxicity, and host-cell specificity Particular attention is paid to publications of successfully targeting a specific organ or cell typesread more

Characterization of the Mucosal and Systemic Immune Responses Following Virus Vector-Based Gene Delivery into the Colonic Mucosa
TL;DR: The phenotypic and functional characterization of antigen-specific COS+ T cell responses following intrarectal vaccination with an Ad vector expressing Gallus gallus ovalbumin (OVA) was conducted, underscoring the importance of inducing a tissue-resident effector memory T cell subset for protection against pathogens at mucosa! surfaces.

Gene Therapy in Bone Regeneration: A Summary of Delivery Approaches for Effective Therapies
TL;DR: The critical features of viral carriers that make them effective in gene delivery to human cells and non-viral approaches to gene delivery in the context of bone regeneration and repair have been reviewed, with emphasis on the challenges facing such a gene delivery.

Molecular Cloning, Lentiviral Transduction, and Expression of Recombinant ADAMTSL2 and ADAMTSL4.
TL;DR: The protocols involved in the molecular cloning of ADAMTSL2 and ADAMtsL4 into the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-derived pCDH lentiviral system are detailed.
Mice with humanized liver endothelium
TL;DR: The aim of the present thesis was to identify cells that are suitable for liver engraftment and use mice with a humanized liver in gene therapy, and found that human fetal liver sinusoidal endothelial cells have the unique ability to engraft and repopulate the mouse liver niche, while macrovascular and microvascular endothelial Cells fail to do so.

Consequences of persistent antigen presentation following administration of HIV-1-derived lentiviral vectors
TL;DR: It is shown that LVs can transduce DCs and macrophages, leading to persistent antigen expression, opening the opportunity for their use in long-term immunomodulation.

Vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein pseudotyped retroviral vectors: concentration to very high titer and efficient gene transfer into mammalian and nonmammalian cells
TL;DR: The ability to concentrate vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein pseudotyped vectors will facilitate gene therapy model studies and other gene transfer experiments that require direct delivery of vectors in vivo, and facilitate genetic studies in nonmammalian species, including the important zebrafish developmental system.
