Differential Cellular Tropism of Lentivirus and Adeno-Associated Virus in the Brain of Cynomolgus Monkey

Abstract: Many researchers are using viruses to deliver genes of interest into the brains of laboratory animals. However, certain target brain cells are not easily infected by viruses. Moreover, the differential tropism of different viruses in monkey brain is not well established. We investigated the cellular tropism of lentivirus and adeno-associated virus (AAV) toward neuron and glia in the brain of cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascularis). Lentivirus and AAV were injected into putamen of the monkey brain. One month aft… Show more

“…Viral vectors encoding opsin genes are produced in vitro and are subsequently injected into the brain where they can transduce target cells. The cell tropism of these viral vectors can vary depending on the class or serotype of the vector and should thus be chosen carefully [2731]. Cell-type specific expression of opsins can be further achieved by utilizing an appropriate promoter driving transgene expression.…”
