Research Abstract |
Interferon-γ(IFN-γ) was selected as a therapeutic protein and several IFN-γgene therapy systems were developed. Selection of proper promoters of IFN-γ-expressing vectors resulted in the regulation of the time profile of IFN-γtransgene expression. A fusion of IFN-γwith a protein that regulates the tissue distribution resulted in the spatiotemporal control of IFN-γafter in vivo gene transfer. This control led to an increase in the therapeutic effect of IFN-γ-based gene therapy on metastatic tumor with reduction in adverse effects.
