| Title | Gene delivery to the lung by means of syngeneic fibroblasts: an experimental model. |
| Journal | Exp Lung Res |
| Abstract |
An experimental model, in which exogenous gene expression in the lung is achieved, has been established. A fibroblast cell line was transfected with the lacZ gene and was administered to syngeneic mice by either intravenous or intratracheal injection. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and histochemical detection of beta-galactosidase revealed efficient gene delivery to the lung by either route. Kinetic studies demonstrated that the expression peaked immediately after the injection, and this high level was maintained for 7 days by intratracheal and for 14 days by intravenous administration. This system may have potential relevance for certain experimental models requiring specific gene delivery to the lung. |
