Control and Augmentation of Long-Term Plasmid Transgene Expression In Vivo in Murine Muscle Tissue and Ex Vivo in Patient Mesenchymal

Figure 2
Duration of plasmid-based CMV promoter activity in vivo in liver and muscle. pCMV-luc was delivered to liver and thigh muscle () by electroporation and luminescence analysed in vivo over time using IVIS live whole body imaging. CMV activity in liver is initially high but reduced to background level by day 14. A gross reduction in expression over time was not apparent in muscle.
