20090275107Scalable Production Method for AAV - A method for producing AAV, without requiring cell lysis, is described. The method involves harvesting AAV from the supernatant. For AAV having capsids with a heparin binding site, the method involves modifying the AAV capsids and/or the culture conditions to ablate the binding between the AAV heparin binding site and the cells, thereby allowing the AAV to pass into the supernatant, i.e., media. Thus, the method of the invention provides supernatant containing high yields of AAV which have a higher degree of purity from cell membranes and intracellular materials, as compared to AAV produced using methods using a cell lysis step.11-05-2009
20090317417Modified AAV Vectors Having Reduced Capsid Immunogenicity and Use Thereof - A method of reducing the cellular immune response and/or toxicity of AAV-mediated delivery is described. The method provides for masking or ablating a RxxR motif which induces T-cells, and which is located on select AAV capsids. The method further provides for reducing or eliminating heparin binding to an AAV. Also provided are compositions containing modified AAV capsids and methods of using same.12-24-2009

20090197338Method of Increasing the Function of an AAV Vector - A method of correcting singletons in a selected AAV sequence in order to increasing the packaging yield, transduction efficiency, and/or gene transfer efficiency of the selected AAV is provided. This method involves altering one or more singletons in the parental AAV capsid to conform the singleton to the amino acid in the corresponding position(s) of the aligned functional AAV capsid sequences.08-06-2009

20090124900Three-Dimensional Time-of-Flight Pet With Course Angular and Slice Rebinning - In a time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) imaging method, three-dimensional time-of-flight line-of-response (TOF-LOR) data are acquired. Each TOF-LOR corresponds to a line-of-response with time-of-flight spatial localization. The TOF-LOR data are slice-binned into a plurality of two-dimensional TOF-LOR data sets based on the time-of-flight spatial localization. At least some of the slice-binned TOF-LOR data correspond to lines of response that are oblique to the two-dimensional data sets. The TOF-LOR data are coarsely angularly rebinned to a plurality of coarse angular bins each having an angular span of at least about 10°. The coarsely angularly binned TOF-LOR data are reconstructed to produce the image slice.05-14-2009
