"Retroviral Gene Transduction of Adult Peripheral Blood or Marrow-Derived CD34+ Cells for Six Hours Without Growth Factors or on Autologous Stroma Does Not Improve Marking Efficiency Assessed in vivo
Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, July 21st, 1997
According to the authors' abstract of an article published in Blood, "Our previous work in patients undergoing autologous transplant for multiple myeloma (MM) or breast cancer (BC) has shown that retroviral transduction of adult CD34+ cells for 72 hours in the presence of interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-6, and stem cell factor (SCF) resulted in .01% to 1% long-term marking of peripheral blood and marrow cells (Blood 85:3948, 1995). In this study we compare these previous studies to transduction with no added growth factors, previously shown to result in higher levels of marking in children (Lancet 342:1134, 1993) or transduction in the presence of an autologous stromal layer. ...
