Beschreibung:
Stable delivery of a therapeutic protein under pharmacologic control was achieved through in vivo somatic gene transfer. This system was based on the expression of two chimeric, human-derived proteins that were reconstituted by rapamycin into a transcription factor complex. A mixture of two adeno-associated virus vectors, one expressing the transcription factor chimeras and one containing erythropoietin (Epo) under the control of a promoter responsive to the transcription factor, was injected into skeletal muscle of immune-competent mice. Administration of rapamycin resulted in 200-fold induction of plasma Epo. Stable engraftment of this humanized system in immune-competent mice was achieved for 6 months with similar results for at least 3 months in a rhesus monkey.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ye, X -- Rivera, V M -- Zoltick, P -- Cerasoli, F Jr -- Schnell, M A -- Gao, G -- Hughes, J V -- Gilman, M -- Wilson, J M -- P01 AR/NS43648-03/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK47757-05/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Jan 1;283(5398):88-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Human Gene Therapy, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9872748" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
