Chimeric Antigen Receptors in Different Cell Types: New Vehicles Join the Race.

abstract：:We evaluated the ability of a replication-deficient, recombinant adenoviral vector to transfer the bifunctional gene GAL-TEK, which expresses a marking/therapeutic gene product, to naturally occurring cat fibrosarcomas in situ. GAL-TEK contains an in-frame fusion of the bacterial LacZ gene for histochemical marking of...
