  • IL-12 gene expression and delivery systems and uses
    Publication number: 20020123473
    Abstract: Plasmid expression systems for delivery of DNA coding sequences to a mammal are described which provide expression of multiple coding sequences from a single plasmid. Also described are particular lipid/DNA delivery systems having advantageous characteristics of size, charge ratio, and proportion of supercoiled DNA, and methods of preparing and using such delivery systems for treatment.

    Inventors: Jeff Nordstrom, Bruce Freimark, Deepa Deshpande
  • Gene expression and delivery systems and uses
    Publication number: 20020119940
    Abstract: Plasmid expression systems for delivery of DNA coding sequences to a mammal are described which provide expression of multiple coding sequences from a single plasmid. Also described are particular lipid/DNA delivery systems having advantageous characteristics of size, charge ratio, and proportion of supercoiled DNA, and methods of preparing and using such delivery systems for treatment or as immunization adjuvants.
