## Abstract Abstract: We explored the possibility of entrapping retroviral vector producing cells (VPC) within porous 3D matrix to induce a local and sustained release of viral particles to the malignant milieu. PA317/STK, which constantly shed reroviral vectors, was used to transduce cancer cells

## Abstract ## Background Retroviral vectors (RVs) constitute one of the preferred gene therapy tools against inherited and acquired diseases. Development of scaleable downstream processes allowing purification under mild conditions and yielding viral preparations with high titer, potency and puri
Retroviral vectors have become a standard tool for gene transfer technology. Compared with other gene transfer systems, retroviral vectors have several advantages, including their ability to transduce a variety of cell types, to integrate efยฎciently into the genomic DNA of the recipient cells and to
Retroviral vectors with the capacity to deliver transgenes to specific tissues are expected to be of great value for various gene transfer applications in vivo. Initial attempts to modify vector host-range by the insertion of ligands on their surface glycoproteins have frequently failed, essentially
