These two volumes of Gene Delivery to Mammalian Cells have been designed to offer a compendium of the key techniques that have proved most useful in the expanding field of gene transfer in mammalian cells. Volumes one and two offer a background on chemical, physical, and viral methods of gene delivery. The chapters offer the reader a practical guide on the myriad of techniques currently available to introduce genes into mammalian. Each section of the two texts begins with chapters that provide an overview of the basis behind the delivery systems described, followed by chapters that provide...

The efficiency of delivering DNA into mammalian cells has increased t- mendously since DEAE dextran was first shown to be capable of enhancing transfer of RNA into mammalian cells in culture. Not only have other chemical methods been developed and refined, but also very efficient physical and viral delivery methods have been established. The technique of introducing DNA into cells has developed from transfecting tissue culture cells to delivering DNA to specific cell types and organs in vivo. Moreover, two important areas of biology assessment of gene function and gene therapy require succe-...

Highly experienced researchers describe in step-by-step detail methods that have proven most useful in delivering genes to mammalian cells. Volume 1: Nonviral Gene Transfer Techniques focuses on gene delivery by a variety of chemical and physical methods, including ultrasound, biolistics, peptides, PNA clamps, liposomes, microinjection, electroporation, particle bombardment, dendrimers, and hydrodynamics. An accompanying volume, Volume 2: Viral Gene Transfer Techniques, details procedures for delivering genes to cells in vitro and in vivo, including the use of lentiviral vectors.
