Recombination with other retroviruses Interactions Other Requires target cells to have a specific receptor Only integrate into dividing cells Expression is long term; Particles quickly degraded Retrovirus Gene Therapy Virus (RNA Virus) Adenoviruses Gene Therapy Virus (DNA Virus) Conditionally Replicating Adenoviruses Gene Therapy Virus (DNA Virus) Cancer (ONYX-015) Replication-Defective Adenovirus Gene Therapy Virus (DNA Virus) DMD Less Immune Response Lacks viral genes; Packaged via helper cells Uses creatine kinase promoter (muscle specific) Adeno-associated Virus Gene Therapy Virus (DNA Virus) Minor Use (10%) Cystic Fibrosis (CFTR gene) DMD Limited size capacity for genes High Titers of pure virus is hard to get Mutagenesis/Cancer; Semen Infection? Requires 3 plasmids & helper virus (more work) Can infect wide range of cells Virus integrates into genome – Long Term Cationic Liposomes Gene Therapy Non-Viral Vector Cystic Fibrosis (CFTR gene) Naked Plasmid Gene Therapy Cardiovascular Disease (VEGF-2) Erythropoietin DNA Vaccine Ex Vivo Myoblast Transplant Gene Therapy DMD Major Use (40%) Inflammatory & Toxic Immune Response Cystic Fibrosis (CFTR gene) Viral Particles may be neutralized Cancer (ONYX-015), Erythropoietin Not long term Controlled via helper protein requirement Can infect any cells, High Titers Inflammatory & Toxic Immune Response Viral Particles may be neutralized Not long term Controlled via helper protein requirement Can infect any cells, High Titers Selectively lyses p53 deficient cells Relatively safe & noninfectious Not specific ,Transient Immune Response? Plasmid coated with lipophilic molecules Poorly understood; Doesn’t integrate No size limit; could use interfering RNA Low cost? Only transient expression Few cells survive, Large gene size Dystrophin expression lost Immune Response Uses retrovirus infection in culture then transplanted
