Alveolar macrophages and T cells from sarcoid, but not normal lung, are permissive to adenovirus infection and allow analysis of NF-kappa b-dependent signaling pathways.
Adenovirus (Adv)-mediated gene transfer requires efficient infection of target cells. The objective of this study was to establish whether alveolar macrophages (AM) and T cells (AT) from sarcoid patients were permissive to infection with Adv vectors and if this property could be used to investigate...
