Gene therapy progress and prospects: transcription regulatory systems.

abstract：:We have used a particular folate receptor, which is overexpressed in tumor cells, for targeted DNA delivery into these cell types. This folate receptor internalizes folate through caveolae by a process named potocytosis, which is distinct from endocytosis, through clathrin-coated pits. When folate conjugated to poly-L...
