Research Abstract |
Initially the aim of this study was development of a gene therapy of von Recklinghausen's disease. However, because it became clear that integration of NF-1 gene into the vector was difficult, we have changed the target to Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), complicating disease of von Recklinghausen's disease. We have observed a marked decrease in number of cells by transfection of IFN-α and IFN-γ gene into cells delived from MPNST.
