Adenoviral Vectors for Gene Therapy, Third Edition, provides detailed, comprehensive coverage of gene delivery vehicles based on the adenovirus that is emerging as an important tool in gene therapy. These exciting new therapeutic agents have great potential for the treatment of disease, as platforms for gene therapy and gene editing, as well as for oncology approaches, making them class leading agents in the gene-advanced therapies arena.The fully updated and expanded third edition covers the basic biology of adenoviruses and highlights the potential use of adenoviral vectors for the treatment of disease, including their construction, propagation, and purification, cutting-edge vectorology, and the use of adenoviral vectors in preclinical animal models. The book also considers the regulatory issues surrounding human clinical gene therapy trials. New chapters include adenoviral vaccines for veterinary applications, adenoviruses for gene editing, nonhuman primate adenoviruses, COVID-19 vaccines, vaccine applications, and oncolytic adenoviruses for antitumor immunization. This broad scope of information provides a solid overview of the field, allowing the reader to gain a complete understanding of the development and use of adenoviral vectors.

This book presents work that has been conducted as part of the research project "Discourse on ethical questions of biomedicine" of the interdisciplinary Working Group Bioethics and Science Communication at the Max-Delbrueck-Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC)in Berlin-Buch, Germany. This book offers ground-breaking ideas on how the daily interworking of cutting-edge biomedical research assess the broader social context and its communication to stakeholders and the public. Editors cover three aspects: Scientific, Ethical and Legal, and Perception and Communication. This work establishes an international and interdisciplinary network of excellent researchers at the beginning of their careers, who brilliantly integrate their work into the different perspectives on gene therapy from the natural and social sciences, as well as the humanities and law.

The field of non-viral vector research has rapidly progressed since the publication of the first edition. This new edition is expanded to two separate volumes that contain in-depth discussions of different non-viral approaches, including cationic liposomes and polymers, naked DNA and various physical methods of delivery, as well as a comprehensive coverage of the molecular biological designs of the plasmid DNA for reduced toxicity, prolonged expression and tissue or disease specific genes. New developments such as the toxicity of the non-viral vectors and recent advances in nucleic acid therapeutics are fully covered in these volumes.
