1 Human tissues Collected from surgical procedures, postmortem examinations, or organ donors for AAV detection. 15163731 View Related Publication
2 Total cellular DNAs Extracted from human and nonhuman primate tissues for PCR analysis of AAV sequences.
3 Primer sets for cap gene (not specified) Used for signature or full-length cap PCRs to determine the molecular prevalence and tissue distribution of AAVs.
4 Capsid clones (hu.1 to hu.67, among others) Isolated and sequenced from human tissues to characterize AAV capsid sequences.
5 Polyclonal antisera against AAV serotypes Generated for cross-neutralizing reactivities testing of AAV vectors.
6 Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) vectors Used to examine transduction efficiencies in vitro in 84-31 cells.
7 Human α1-antitrypsin (A1AT) vectors Used as a sensitive and quantitative reporter gene in vivo, expressed under the control of a cytomegalovirus-enhanced chicken β-actin promoter.
8 4 to 6-week-old NCR nude mice Used as subjects for in vivo studies involving liver-, lung-, and muscle-directed gene transfer.
9 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits (for A1AT) Used to determine serum A1AT concentrations following gene transfer in vivo.
