Abstract

Adeno‐associated viral vectors (AAV) can direct long‐term gene expression in post‐mitotic cells. Previous studies have established that long‐term cardiac gene transfer results from intramuscular injection into the heart. Cardiac gene transfer after direct intracoronary delivery of AAV in vivo, however, has been minimal in degree, and indirect intracoronary delivery, an approach used in an increasing number of studies, appears to be receiving more attention. To determine the utility of indirect intracoronary gene transfer of AAV, we used aortic and pulmonary artery cross clamping followed by proximal aortic injection of AAV encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein (AAV.EGFP) at 10 11 DNase resistant particles (drp; high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)‐purified) per rat. Gene expression was quantified by fluorescent microscopy at four time points up to 1 year after vector delivery, revealing 20–32% transmural gene expression in the left ventricle at each time point. Histological analysis revealed little or no inflammatory response and levels of transgene expression were low in liver and undetectable in lung. In subsequent studies in pigs, direct intracoronary delivery into the left circumflex coronary artery of AAV.EGFP (2.64–5.28 × 10 13 drp; HPLC‐purified) resulted in gene expression in 3 of 4 pigs 8 weeks following injection with no inflammatory response in the heart. PCR analysis confirmed AAV vector presence in the left circumflex perfusion bed. These data indicate that intracoronary delivery of AAV vector is associated with transgene expression in the heart, providing a means to obtain long‐term expression of therapeutic genes.

  • Myocardial gene deliveries have been performed in swine with AAVs using methods that deliver vectors preferentially to the myocardium such as myocardial injections, direct intracoronary, and selective retroinfusion coupled with coronary artery occlusion.

    “Myocardial gene deliveries have been performed with the aid of AAVs with methods that deliver the vectors preferentially to the myocardium such as myocardial injections (H. Su, et al., 2008), direct intracoronary (Kaspar, et al., 2005), and selective retroinfusion coupled with coronary artery occlusion (Pleger, et al., 2011; Raake, et al., 2008).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
