Vascular Adventitia is a Suitable Compartment to Transplant Transduced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells for Ex Vivo Gene Expression

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) are ideal for systemic gene therapy because of their proximity to blood vessels and they have demonstrated long-term exogenous gene expression in vivo. However, the procedure generally followed to seed the transduced VSMC onto arteries denuded of endothelial cells...
