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
## Background: Efficient and non-toxic gene delivery, preferably with non-viral dna vectors readily transferable to clinical practice, is generally regarded as a major limitation for gene therapy. ## Methods: A 31 amino acid, integrin-targeted bifunctional synthetic peptide (polylysine-molossin),
## 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
