    摘要: Provided herein are methods that include introducing into an inner ear of a mammal a therapeutically effective amount of an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector that includes a nucleotide sequence encoding (a) a polypeptide including an antibody heavy chain variable domain operably linked to a signal peptide and a polypeptide including an antibody light chain variable domain operably linked to a signal peptide; (b) a polypeptide including an antigen-binding antibody fragment operably linked to a signal peptide; or (c) a soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor operably linked to a signal peptide.

    摘要: Provided herein are compositions that include at least two different nucleic acid vectors that, when introduced into a primate cell, the at least two different vectors undergo con catamerization or homologous recombination with each other, thereby forming a recombined nucleic acid that encodes a full-length target protein (e.g., a supporting cell target protein or a hair cell target protein). Also provided are compositions that include a single AAV vector that, when introduced into a primate cell, a nucleic acid encoding a full-length target protein (e.g., a supporting cell target protein or a hair cell target protein) is generated at the locus of the supporting cell target gene, and the primate expresses the target protein (e.g., a supporting cell target protein or a hair cell target protein).
