Dopaminergic neurodegeneration induced by Parkinson's disease-linked G2019S LRRK2 is dependent on kinase and GTPase activity

Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common cause of late-onset, autosomal-dominant familial Parkinson's disease (PD). LRRK2 functions as both a kinase and GTPase, and PD-linked mutations are known to influence both enzymatic acti ...

The FDA-Approved Drug Nelfinavir Inhibits Lytic Cell-Free but Not Cell-Associated Nonlytic Transmission of Human Adenovirus

Gerardo Turcatti, Fabien Kuttler

Adenoviruses (AdVs) are prevalent and give rise to chronic and re-current disease. Human AdV (HAdV) species B and C, such as HAdV-C2, -C5, and-B14, cause respiratory disease and constitute a health threat for immunocom-promised individuals. HAdV-Cs are wel ...

Patchy Amphiphilic Dendrimers Bind Adenovirus and Control Its Host Interactions and in Vivo Distribution

Francesco Stellacci, Weina Liu

The surface of proteins is heterogeneous with sophisticated but precise hydrophobic and hydrophilic patches, which is essential for their diverse biological functions. To emulate such distinct surface patterns on macromolecules, we used rigid spherical syn ...

Mechanisms of Human Adenovirus Inactivation by Sunlight and UVC Light as Examined by Quantitative PCR and Quantitative Proteomics

Tamar Kohn, Romain Hamelin, Florence Armand, Franziska Sara Bosshard

Human adenoviruses (HAdV) are important pathogens in both industrialized and developing nations. HAdV has been shown to be relatively resistant to monochromatic UVC. Polychromatic UVC, in contrast, is a more effective means of disinfection, presumably due ...

An Adeno-Associated Virus-Based Intracellular Sensor of Pathological Nuclear Factor-kappa B Activation for Disease-Inducible Gene Transfer

Elias Georges Gebara

Stimulation of resident cells by NF-kappa B activating cytokines is a central element of inflammatory and degenerative disorders of the central nervous system (CNS). This disease-mediated NF-kappa B activation could be used to drive transgene expression se ...

The PiggyBac transposon enhances the frequency of CHO stable cell line generation and yields recombinant lines with superior productivity and stability

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser

Generating stable, high-producing mammalian cell lines is a major bottleneck in the manufacture of recombinant therapeutic proteins. Conventional gene transfer methods for cell line generation rely on random plasmid integration, resulting in unpredictable ...

Modeling Parkinson's Disease in Adult Rats Using Viral Vectors as Gene Delivery Tools

Julien Dusonchet

Animal models of human pathologies remain invaluable tools for unraveling disease mechanisms and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies. For a number of diseases, the lack of a reliable animal model represents an important limiting step towards the de ...

Efficient transduction of non-human primate motor neurons after intramuscular delivery of recombinant AAV serotype 6

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Christopher Towne

Retrograde transport of viral vectors in the rodent spinal cord provides a powerful means to administer a therapeutic transgene from the innervated musculature. With the aim of scaling up this approach to non-human primates, we have injected recombinant ad ...

Identification of genetic insulator elements to increase the safety of viral gene therapy vectors

Armelle Gaussin

Haematopoeitic system diseases, both acquired and inherited, can be currently cured by allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This treatment provides highly successful immune function recovery for patients receiving grafts of HLA-compatible d ...

Recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (rAAV2/6)-mediated gene transfer to nociceptive neurons through different routes of delivery

Patrick Aebischer, Christopher Towne

BACKGROUND: Gene transfer to nociceptive neurons of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) is a promising approach to dissect mechanisms of pain in rodents and is a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of persistent pain disorders such as neuropathic pa ...

Conditional gene expression and knockdown using lentivirus vectors encoding shRNA

Patrick Aebischer

Drug-inducible systems allowing the control of transgene expression and knockdown in mammalian cells are invaluable tools for genetic research, and could also play important roles in translational research or gene therapy. We and others have developed a le ...

Recombinant Adeno-Associated viral vectors are deficient in provoking a DNA damage response

Peter Martin Beard, Michail Fragkos

Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) provokes a DNA damage response that mimics a stalled replication fork. We have previously shown that this response is dependent on ataxia telangiectasia-mutated and Rad3- related kinase and involves recruitment of DNA r ...

Effects of dynamic compression on lentiviral transduction in an in vitro airway wall model

Melody Swartz, Alice Anna Tomei

Asthmatic patients are more susceptible to viral infection, and we asked whether dynamic strain on the airway wall (such as that associated with bronchoconstriction) would influence the rate of viral infection of the epithelial and subepithelial cells. To ...

A stable system for the high-titer production of multiply attenuated lentiviral vectors

Didier Trono, Romain Zufferey

Lentiviral vectors open exciting perspectives for the genetic treatment of a wide array of inherited and acquired diseases, owing to their ability to govern the efficient delivery, integration, and long-term expression of transgenes into nondividing cells ...
