AAV muscles ahead
Article Abstract:
Scientists from the Stanford University and ARIAD Pharmaceuticals compared adeno-associated viral (AAV) and adenoviral vectors and used both to transfect muscle cells of mice using a rapamycin-inducible gene expression system. The AAV vector was shown to be more stable in human growth hormone synthesis.
