【Abstract】 To find out the infection efficiency of recombinant adeno-as sociated virus 2-mediated exogenou s genes in human peripheral blood monocyte-derived dendritic cells(D Cs),the process of transfection wa s investigated by FITC-labeled rAA V2,and observed under confocal mic roscope.Newly separated dendritic cells were tranfected by rAAV2-luc and rAAV2-GFP at different MOI,and transfection efficiency were detec ted by luminometer for rAAV2-luc a nd flow cytometry for rAAV2-GFP.Th e results were elucidated in four different assay systems:(1)60min w as needed for rAAV2 to bind on den dritic cells,and got into cells in the following 10min;(2)the express ion of luc could be detected at th e MOI as low as 1×10~5v.g/cell,and the expression plateau was reached by the MOI of 10~6～10~7v.g/cell,furt her increase of MOI had no functio n on expression level;(3)transgene expression was detected after 48h, and maintained a higher expression level from 96h to 240h after infec tion;(4)7days postinfection of rAA V2-GFP,5%～18% dendritic cells were GFP positive. These data suggest th at rAAV2 vector can efficiently in fect monocyte-derived dendritic ce lls and mediate exogenous gene exp ression,and that the application o f rAAV2 as vector may be useful fo r gene transfer to dendritic cells in ex vivo immunotherapy.更多还原
