A lentiviral vector system for expressing a lentiviral particle is disclosed. The lentiviral vector system includes a therapeutic vector. The therapeutic vector comprises a phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) sequence for expressing at least one of PAH or a variant thereof, wherein the PAH sequence is truncated.

The present invention relates generally to immunization and immunotherapy for the treatment or prevention of HIV. In particular, the methods include in vivo and/or ex vivo enrichment of HIV-specific CD4+ T cells.

The present invention discloses an in-vitro method for transferring biological material into activated NK cells with a pseudotyped retroviral vector particle or a virus-like particle thereof, comprising the steps a) activation of NK cells, and b) addition of said pseudotyped retroviral vector particle or virus-like particle thereof to said activated NK cells, wherein said pseudotyped retroviral vector particle or virus-like particle thereof comprises a modified baboon endogenous retrovirus (BaEV) envelope glycoprotein that is able of binding to and fusing with a hematopoietic cell membrane, thereby transferring biological material into said activated NK cells. Preferentially, the activating of NK cells is performed by the addition of a IL-1 family cytokine to the NK cells.

Provided are a myeloid-specific promoter and a use thereof. The myeloid-specific promoter includes a nucleic acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2. The myeloid-specific promoter shows specificity to myeloid tissues. It initiates a gene expression with high efficiency in myeloid cells, but with relative low efficiency in non-myeloid cells. As such, the myeloid-specific promoter regulates the specific expression of a gene in myeloid tissues. The myeloid-specific promoter and the CYBB gene are inserted into a lentiviral vector, and the constructed lentiviral expression vector shows specificity to myeloid tissues and can effectively restore the expression of gp91-phox protein and restore the generation function of ROS, which is of great significance for CGD treatment.

Provided is a method for large-scale preparation of a purified preparation of a recombinant lentiviral vector at the GMP grade. The method comprises: (a) providing raw material feed liquid to be purified that comprises recombinant viral vectors; (b) carrying out a microfiltration treatment on the feed liquid to obtain a microfiltered filtrate comprising the recombinant viral vectors; (c) optionally concentrating the filtrate to obtain a concentrated filtrate; (d) purifying the filtrate obtained in the previous step by means of chromatography to obtain a crude pure product comprising the recombinant viral vectors; and (e) subjecting the crude pure product obtained in the previous step to liquid exchange and elaborate purification to obtain the purified recombinant viral vectors.
