Quantitative analysis and characterization of intracellular gene delivery mechanisms
A goal for gene delivery research is to design vectors capable of (a) delivering transgenes to target cells, (b) yielding efficient gene expression, and (c) minimizing any immune, inflammatory, or cytotoxic response. Current research has focused on developing such vehicles using end gene expression …
