Non-viral gene therapy that targets motor neurons in vivo

Non-viral gene therapy that targets motor neurons in vivo

A major challenge in neurological gene therapy is safe delivery of transgenes to sufficient cell numbers from the circulation or periphery. This is particularly difficult for diseases involving spinal cord motor neurons such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We have examined the feasibility of...
