One of the conditions of effective gene therapy is the choice of a proper gene carrier that will efficiently deliver the genetic material to the damaged tissue without causing deleterious side-effects. Adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV) have emerged as attractive tools for gene therapy, because of their broad tissue tropism, long-term transgene expression, and lack of human pathology. Nevertheless, difficulty in preparing and purifying this viral vector in large quantities remains a major obstacle for evaluating AAV vectors in clinical trials. In this article, we compare different methods for AAV production in order to optimize the conditions of AAV preparation to the scale and purity required for clinical and potential commercial applications.

Regulation of gene expression in gene therapy is crucial for obtaining the therapeutic effects, thanks to limitation of transgene activity to the selected cells in a given time. In this paper we have focused on plasmid expression systems regulated by doxycycline or hypoxia. We have described in details the structure, regulatory elements and biological applications of 1) the modified, commercially available Tet-On system, expressing doxycycline-controlled b-galactosidase and, 2) hypoxia-activated FGF-4/VEGF expression plasmid containing the hypoxia responsive sequence. The presented expression systems can also be used in viral vectors, enabling not only regulated, but also high and long-term expression of transgenes.
