Abstract / Description of output
The potential for undesirable systemic effects related to constitutive expression of certain therapeutic transgenes may be limited through the development of transcriptionally targeted disease- and cell-type-specific vectors. The objective of this study was to analyse the canine matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) promoter and deletion constructs for its ability to drive expression in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1beta and tumour necrosis factor-alpha).
