Improved titers of retroviral vectors from the human FLYRD18 packaging cell line in serum- and protein-free medium.

abstract：:Foamy virus (FV) vectors are a promising gene delivery system for use in hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy. Previous FV vector marking studies in the NOD/SCID xenotransplantation model used umbilical cord blood (UCB)-derived SCID repopulating cells (SRCs) that were assayed 5-10 weeks posttransplantation. We now rep...
