  • Oral administration of therapeutic agent coupled to transporting agent induces tolerance
    Publication number: 20040014704
    Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a method for the induction of tolerance to a foreign transgene or a self-antigen in an animal host by administration of a composition to an animal host via a natural gastrointestinal pathway. Additionally, the present method can eliminate a pre-existing immune response in an animal host. The composition administered when carrying out the method achieves widespread distribution, systemic expression and sustained delivery of a genetic material in an animal host. More particularly, the invention discloses a method useful for both eliciting tolerance and for abrogation of a pre-existing immune response by oral administration of a genetic material.

  • Transgenic animals produced using oral administration of a genetic agent coupled to a transporting agent
    Publication number: 20040016013
    Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a method of producing transgenic animals by administration of a composition to an animal via a natural gastrointestinal pathway. The composition achieves widespread distribution, systemic expression and sustained delivery in the animal. More particularly, the invention discloses a method for producing a transgenic animal using oral gene therapy. The present invention also provides transgenic animals produced by this method.
