<p>Disclosed are methods for the use of therapeutic polypeptide-encoding polynucleotides in the creation of transformed host cells and transgenic animals is disclosed. In particular, the use of recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vector compositions comprising polynucleotide sequences that express one or more mammalian PEDF or anti-angiogenesis polypeptides is described. In particular, the invention provides gene therapy methods for the prevention, long-term treatment and/or amelioration of symptoms of a variety of conditions and disorders in a mammalian eye, including, for example blindness, loss of vision, retinal degeneration, macular degeneration, and related disorders resulting from retinal or choroidal neovascularization in affected individuals.</p> |
