Gene-activated matrix

In gene-activated matrix technology (GAM), cytokines and growth factors could be delivered not as recombinant proteins but as plasmid genes.[1] GAM is one of the tissue engineering approaches to wound healing. Following gene delivery, the recombinant cytokine could be expressed in situ by endogenous would healing cells – in small amounts but for a prolonged period of time – leading to reproducible tissue regeneration. The matrix can be modified by incorporating a viral vector, mRNA or DNA bound to a delivery system, or a naked plasmid.[2]
