Adenoviruses are among the most attractive Viral Vectors for gene therapy because of their well-defined biology and characteristics. They have a high packaging capacity and can accommodate large transgene inserts of sizes up to ~8 kb. Adenovirus vectors also have high transduction efficiency and they can infect both dividing and non-dividing cells in a broad range of cell and tissue …
A conversation with Pirjo Merilahti, PhD., Virology. At Biovian, Viral Vector process development is planned and executed by a team of experienced scientists, led by Dr Pirjo Merilahti. Her team typically starts the project with …
The therapeutic possibilities of cell and gene therapy are very appealing. The possibility to use a Viral Vector to carry the therapeutic gene into the target cells or to initiate cell transduction holds the potential …
