Cell Transplantation to the Brain with Microglia Labeled by Neuropathogenic Retroviral Vector System

A8 virus (A8-V) is a molecular clone of the neuropathogenic FrC6 virus derived from the Friend murine leukemia virus (F-MuLV). The A8-V infects endothelia and microglia in the brain. We constructed a gene transfer system with the A8-V gene. Pseudotyped virus carrying the surface protein of A8-V (A8-...
