Abstract:IntroductionRecombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) is a novel strategy used clinically for gene delivery, but has not been characterized in the context of organ transplantation. We sought to determine the efficacy of rAAV-mediated gene delivery during static cold storage (SCS) prior to liver transplantation.MethodsA triple-plasmid transfection protocol was used to produce rAAV subtype-9 vectors containing firefly luciferase genomes in HEK293 cells. Lewis rat liver grafts were flushed and stored in cold HTK … Show more
