Abstract
Adenoviral vectors remain one of the most promising methods of gene delivery but are plagued by several inherent problems including immune inactivation and transient expression. This paper reports a novel microparticle-based delivery system for adenovirus that allows high uptake of virus, stable complex formation and extended release. In addition, this microparticle/adenovirus complex has been demonstrated to only release virus upon cell contact. The significant clinical implications of this delivery system are discussed.
