Evaluation of PCR and ELISA assays for screening clinical trial subjects for replication-competent retrovirus.

abstract：:Replication-deficient adenoviruses are known to induce acute injury and inflammation of infected tissues, thus limiting their use for human gene therapy. However, molecular mechanisms triggering this response have not been fully defined. To characterize this response, chemokine expression was evaluated in DBA/2 mice f...
