AAV vectors accumulate in the pineal gland after injections into the brain or spinal cord

AAV vectors are being used extensively for gene-modifying therapies for neurological disorders. Here, we report the surprising discovery that injections of different AAVs into the brain, spinal cord, or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lead to robust transduction of cells in the pineal gland. We document t...
