Elham Adabi (ESR10) presents at the European Society for Gene and Cell Therapy Congress
Elham Adabi (ESR10) recently represented STACCATO at the #ESGCT2022 with a poster presentation on Tracking CAR gene delivery with conventional and T cell-targeted lentiviral vectors by single-cell multi-omics.
Gene therapy
Gene therapy is a new class of treatments that promise to treat and possibly cure many debilitating diseases. In contrast to conventional treatments, gene therapy treats the cause of the disorder rather than just the symptoms. Gene therapy functions by inserting new genetic material, either DNA or RNA, into a patient’s damaged cells. The most […]
Lentiviral vectors
A common vehicle used extensively in gene therapy is the lentiviral vector (LV). The LV is a replication-defective viral vector, generated from HEK293T cells (human embryonic kidney cells) after the transfection with plasmids (DNA molecules) dedicated for the assembling of particular viral parts (envelope, capsid, nucleoproteins, viral RNA, reverse transcriptase, integrase etc). The purified particles […]
