<p>The present invention provides novel methods and means for delivering a heterologous nucleic acid of interest to mesenchymal stem cells by providing recombinant adenoviral vectors provided with, or having a natural tropism for mesenchymal stem cells, typically in combination with a reduced tropism for other kinds of cells, in particular liver cells. The invention also provides mesenchymal stem cells provided with a heterologous nucleic acid through the use of a recombinant adenoviral vector according to the invention, and the use of such mesenchymal stem cells for the preparation of medicaments for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, angiogenesis and bone related disorders, for instance in treatments that involve bone (re)generation.</p> |
