Improved cell-specificity of adeno-associated viral vectors for medullary thyroid carcinoma using calcitonin gene regulatory elements.
Targeted gene therapy using recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors is a potential therapeutic strategy for treating cancer, and tissue-specific promoters may help with tissue targeting. Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a disease of the calcitonin secreting thyroid C cells, and calcito...
