Abstract
Developing delivery vectors capable of transducing genetic material across the lung epithelia and mucus barrier is a major challenge and of great interest to enable gene therapies to treat pulmonary diseases. Recombinant Adeno-associated Viruses (rAAVs) have emerged as attractive candidates among viral and non-viral vectors due to their broad tissue tropism, ability to transduce dividing and quiescent cells, and their safety profile in current human applications. While rAAVs have demonstrated safety in earlier clinical trials for lung disease applications, there are still some limitations regarding rAAV-transgene delivery in pulmonary cells. Thus, further improvements in rAAV engineering are needed to enhance the effectiveness of rAAV-based therapies for lung diseases. Such therapies could benefit patients with chronic lung diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary hypertension, and cystic fibrosis, among others, by regulating hereditary gene mutations or acquired gene deregulations causing these conditions. Alongside therapeutic development, advances in the rAAV production process are essential to meet increasing production demands, while reducing manufacturing costs. This review discusses current challenges and recent advances in the field of rAAV engineering and manufacturing to encourage the clinical development of new pulmonary gene therapy treatments.
期刊介绍：
Current Gene Therapy is a bi-monthly peer-reviewed journal aimed at academic and industrial scientists with an interest in major topics concerning basic research and clinical applications of gene and cell therapy of diseases. Cell therapy manuscripts can also include application in diseases when cells have been genetically modified. Current Gene Therapy publishes full-length/mini reviews and original research on the latest developments in gene transfer and gene expression analysis, vector development, cellular genetic engineering, animal models and human clinical applications of gene and cell therapy for the treatment of diseases.
Current Gene Therapy publishes reviews and original research containing experimental data on gene and cell therapy. The journal also includes manuscripts on technological advances, ethical and regulatory considerations of gene and cell therapy. Reviews should provide the reader with a comprehensive assessment of any area of experimental biology applied to molecular medicine that is not only of significance within a particular field of gene therapy and cell therapy but also of interest to investigators in other fields. Authors are encouraged to provide their own assessment and vision for future advances. Reviews are also welcome on late breaking discoveries on which substantial literature has not yet been amassed. Such reviews provide a forum for sharply focused topics of recent experimental investigations in gene therapy primarily to make these results accessible to both clinical and basic researchers. Manuscripts containing experimental data should be original data, not previously published.
