Stem Cell Related Patent Number US5834441
| Title: | Adeno-associated viral (AAV) liposomes and methods related thereto | | Inventors: | Philip, Ramila; Redwood City, CA, USA | | Summary: | Described herein are liposomes containing an adeno-associated viral (AAV) plasmid, methods and uses thereof. The invention relates to a process of introducing a genetic sequence of interest into a host cell via the use of a cationic liposome comprised of lipid material and an AAV plasmid which in turn is comprised of a terminal repeat of the AAV genome. Further disclosed are methods by which such genetic material may be introduced into stem cells, T cells, lymphocytes, primary tumor cells and tumor cell lines by use of AAV liposomes for the treatment of cancer, HIV infection, autoimmune disease or genetic abnormalities. | | Abstract: | A composition for genetic manipulation which comprises a liposome comprised of lipid material, and adeno-associated viral (AAV) material. Typically, the AAV material is plasmid, and comprises a terminal repeat of the AAV genome. Methods are disclosed for introducing genetic material into cells by use of AAV liposomes. Accordingly, genetic material was introduced and integrated into stem cells, T cells, primary tumor cells, or tumor cell lines. | | US Patent Website: | Click Here for Full Text of Patent | | Title Number: | US5834441 | | Application Number: | US1994000305221 | | Date Filed: | 12/09/1994 | | Date Published: | 10/11/1998 | | Assignee: | Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Pharmaceuticals Inc., Collegeville, PA, USA |
