Therapeutic levels of erythropoietin (EPO) achieved after gene electrotransfer to skin in mice

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

Gene electrotransfer refers to gene transfection by electroporation and is an effective non-viral method for delivering naked DNA into cells and tissues. This study presents data from gene electrotransfer with erythropoietin (EPO) to mouse skin. Nine-week-old female NMRI mice received one, two or three intradermal injections of 50 microg EPO plasmid and were subsequently electroporated. With plate electrodes and 100 microg of EPO, a significant increase in hemoglobin (P
