A single intravenous injection of adeno-associated virus serotype-9 leads to whole body skeletal muscle transduction in dogs
Open accessAbstract
The success of many gene therapy applications hinges on efficient whole body transduction. In the case of muscular dystrophies, a therapeutic vector has to reach every muscle in the body. Recent studies suggest that vectors based on adeno-associated virus (AAV) are capable of body-wide transduction in rodents. However, translating this finding to large animals remains a challenge. Here we explored systemic gene delivery with AAV serotype-9 (AAV-9) in neonatal dogs. Previous attempts to directly deliver AAV to adult canine muscle have yielded minimal transduction due to a strong cellular immune response. However, in neonatal dogs we observed robust skeletal muscle transduction throughout the body after a single intravenous injection. Importantly, systemic transduction was achieved in the absence of pharmacological intervention or immune suppression and it lasted for at least 6 months (the duration of study). We also observed several unique features not predicted by murine studies. In particular, cardiac muscle was barely transduced in dogs. Many muscular dystrophy patients can be identified by neonatal screening. The technology described here may lead to an effective early intervention in these patients.

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.
