摘要:
The invention concerns novel compositions and methods for controlling nucleic acid expression in cells. More particularly, it concerns any nucleic acid characterised in that it comprises: a) a first region comprising a nucleic acid coding for a tetracycline (tTA)-dependent transactivator under the control of a moderate promoter; and b) a second region comprising a nucleic acid of interest under the control of tTA sensitive promoter. The invention is more particularly useful for controlling the expression of nucleic acids in the nerve cells, in vitro as well as in vivo, for example the human tyrosine hydrocyclosis.
摘要:
The invention provides an essentially pure preparation of human adult astrocytes, and a method of producing same. The purified astrocytes are useful for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders or trauma to the central nervous system.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a defective recombinant adenovirus comprising at least a DNA sequence coding for all or an active part of glutathion peroxidase or a derivative thereof. It also relates to their utilisation in therapy and to the corresponding pharmaceutical compositions.

摘要:
The invention concerns novel recombinant viruses and their use for gene-transfer into nerve cells of vertebrates. The invention also concerns pharmaceutical compositions comprising said recombinant viruses. More particularly, the invention concerns novel vectors derived from baculoviruses and their use for treating diseases of the nervous system of vertebrates.
