Gene transfer to photoreceptor cells may provide a means for arresting the
retinal degeneration that is characteristic of many inherited causes of
blindness, including retinitis pigmentosa (RP). However, transduction of
photoreceptors has to date been inefficient, and further limited by
toxicity and immune responses directed against vector-specific proteins. An
alternative vector system based on adeno- associated virus (AAV) may
obviate these problems, and may be useful for transduction of neuronal
cells. In this study we have demonstrated successful transduction of all
layers of the neuroretina as well as the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)
following subretinal injection of recombinant AAV particles encoding lac Z.
Furthermore, the efficiency of transduction of photoreceptors is
significantly higher than that achieved with an equivalent adenoviral
vector. This is the first report showing that AAV is capable of transducing
photoreceptor cells and supports the use of this vector system for gene
therapy of retinal diseases such as RP.
