Epidermal growth factor improves lentivirus vector gene transfer into primary mouse hepatocytes.

abstract：:Several of the current techniques for transfer of both oligonucleotide and plasmid DNA into the myocardium are impaired by low efficiency and toxicity. To improve gene transfer techniques, especially into the whole heart, a gene transfer method involving liposome in conjunction with a viral envelope (HVJ-liposome) was...
