Adenoviruses possess a combination of features that make them highly suitable as vectors for expression of heterologous genes. Non-conditional and non-defective adeno-vectors have been constructed to obtain high level expression of a number of foreign genes and some of them have been shown in animal

Lentivirus vectors are already used as effective gene delivery tools in cells from liver, retina, skeletal muscle and the central nervous system. In the past year, new and exciting data from gene transfer experiments in human hematopoietic progenitor cells have been obtained. Furthermore, new genera
## Abstract Gene therapy holds promise for treating numerous heart diseases. A key premise for the success of cardiac gene therapy is the development of powerful gene transfer vehicles that can achieve highly efficient and persistent gene transfer specifically in the heart. Other features of an ide
