"Differential Transfection Efficiency Rates of the GM-CSF Gene into Human Renal Cell Carcinoma Lines by Lipofection."
Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, March 10th, 1997
According to the authors' abstract of an article published in Cancer Gene Therapy, "One of the major questions in any gene therapy approach is the selection of the appropriate vector system. Here, the optimization of a gene transfer protocol for renal cell carcinoma using lipofection as a nonviral gene transduction system was evaluated. To select the promoter which gives the highest expression, different plasmids which are able to express Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase gene as a reporter gene under the control of different promoters were tested: human cytomegalovirus promoter (pCMV beta), simian virus 40 promoter (pSV beta), adenovirus promoter (AD beta), and herpes simplex...
