Microglial selective gene expression vector

Abstract

A promoter on an AAV vector was changed to an Iba1 promoter, and a configuration that combined a miR-9 complementary sequence (miR-9T) and a miR-129 complementary sequence (miR-129T) was adopted. An exogenous gene was clarified to be efficiently and specifically expressed in microglia by using this vector, resulting in that an AAV vector that could efficiently and specifically express an exogenous gene in microglia of the central nervous system, was found.
