Description for Nonviral Vectors for Gene Therapy
Hardback. Presents methods for preparing, handling, characterizing gene delivery agents, and gene delivery. This book examines a range of compounds that bind with DNA to form the compact condensed phases that facilitate cellular delivery - among them peptide conjugates, synthetic polymers, and lipids. It also outlines approaches to gene transfer in vivo. Editor(s): Findeis, Mark A. Series: Methods in Molecular Medicine. Num Pages: 399 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MFN; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 26. Weight in Grams: 779.
The purpose of this volume of Methods in Molecular Medicine is to set forth examples of the great variety of techniques and applications that are now emerging in the field of nonviral gene therapy. The book emphasizes not only specific approaches to gene delivery but, in particular, the best current me- ods to prepare, handle, and characterize gene delivery agents. These topics are of very broad importance since gene therapy evolves from its mostly ac- emy-based experimental and clinical research to the ever increasing number of industry-driven programs directed toward commercial development.

Reviews for Nonviral Vectors for Gene Therapy
"The book begins with a series of chapters covering specific protocols concerning gene delivery agents. These are followed by several review chapters that provide additional information on preparing and characterizing gene transfer agents. Particular focus is given to spectroscopic techniques. The final chapter provides a review of renal gene therapy. Chapters are well organized and often accompanied by helpful figures. ... Read more
