Patent application number | Description | Published |
20080226677 | Recombinant virus vector for gene transfer into lymphoid cells - A recombinant herpesvirus, a method for producing the recombinant herpesvirus, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the recombinant herpesvirus, are provided with a method for producing a recombinant herpesvirus using a BAC vector sequence. In addition, a vector comprising a herpesvirus genomic gene and a BAC vector sequence, a cell comprising the vector, and a nucleic acid cassette comprising a fragment, which is capable of homologous recombination with a herpesvirus genome, and a BAC vector sequence, are provided. | 09-18-2008 |
20090208516 | PROMOTER FOR INTRODUCING A GENE INTO A LYMPHOCYTE OR BLOOD CELL AND APPLICATION THEREOF - It is intended to provide a promoter for inducing expression selectively and strongly in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a lymphocyte. In the invention, the object was achieved by finding that HHV6 MIE promoter, HHV7 MIE promoter and HHV7 U95 promoter unexpectedly induce a specific expression in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a T lymphocyte. By utilizing the promoters, a selective delivery of a DNA vaccine or the like can be realized. | 08-20-2009 |
20090214579 | PROMOTER FOR INTRODUCING A GENE INTO A LYMPHOCYTE OR BLOOD CELL AND APPLICATION THEREOF - It is intended to provide a promoter for inducing expression selectively and strongly in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a lymphocyte. In the invention, the object was achieved by finding that HHV6 MIE promoter, HHV7 MIE promoter and HHV7 U95 promoter unexpectedly induce a specific expression in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a T lymphocyte. By utilizing the promoters, a selective delivery of a DNA vaccine or the like can be realized. | 08-27-2009 |
20090253208 | Recombinant Viral Vector for Gene Transfer into Lymphoid Cells - A recombinant herpesvirus, a method for producing the recombinant herpesvirus, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the recombinant herpesvirus, are provided with a method for producing a recombinant herpesvirus using a BAC vector sequence. In addition, a vector comprising a herpesvirus genomic gene and a BAC vector sequence, a cell comprising the vector, and a nucleic acid cassette comprising a fragment, which is capable of homologous recombination with a herpesvirus genome, and a BAC vector sequence, are provided. | 10-08-2009 |
20100005536 | Promoter for Introducing a Gene into a Lymphocyte or Blood Cell and Application Thereof - It is intended to provide a promoter for inducing expression selectively and strongly in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a lymphocyte. In the invention, the object was achieved by finding that HHV6 MIE promoter, HHV7 MIE promoter and HHV7 U95 promoter unexpectedly induce a specific expression in an immunocompetent cell and/or a blood cell such as a T lymphocyte. By utilizing the promoters, a selective delivery of a DNA vaccine or the like can be realized. | 01-07-2010 |
20110070651 | RECOMBINANT VIRAL VECTOR FOR GENE TRANSFER INTO LYMPHOID CELLS - A recombinant herpesvirus, a method for producing the recombinant herpesvirus, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the recombinant herpesvirus, are provided with a method for producing a recombinant herpesvirus using a BAC vector sequence. In addition, a vector comprising a herpesvirus genomic gene and a BAC vector sequence, a cell comprising the vector, and a nucleic acid cassette comprising a fragment, which is capable of homologous recombination with a herpesvirus genome, and a BAC vector sequence, are provided. | 03-24-2011 |
20120129263 | RECOMBINANT VIRAL VECTOR FOR GENE TRANSFER INTO LYMPHOID CELLS - A recombinant herpesvirus, a method for producing the recombinant herpesvirus, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the recombinant herpesvirus, are provided with a method for producing a recombinant herpesvirus using a BAC vector sequence. In addition, a vector comprising a herpesvirus genomic gene and a BAC vector sequence, a cell comprising the vector, and a nucleic acid cassette comprising a fragment, which is capable of homologous recombination with a herpesvirus genome, and a BAC vector sequence, are provided. | 05-24-2012 |
20120220028 | ENHANCER FOR PROMOTER, AND USE THEREOF - Disclosed is an enhancer for a viral promoter such as a promoter that can induce expression selectively and strongly in immunocompetent cells (e.g., lymphocytes) or blood cells. It is found unexpectedly that an intron has the above-mentioned enhancer activity. Thus, it is found that an enhancer for a promoter, which comprises an intron sequence for a major immediate early gene (MIE) of human herpes virus-6 (HHV-6) (particularly HHV-6B) or a fragment of the intron sequence, has a potent promoter activity. | 08-30-2012 |
