Estradiol-PAB-cellulose, an easily prepared adsorbent, has been proposed to purify the uterine estradiol receptor according to the principle of biospecific affinity chromatography. It apparently removes all hormone binding sites when cytosol preparations are incubated with it. A systematic study of this adsorbent was undertaken, including the synthesis and testing of the radioactive material. Two main results were obtained: 1) Estradiol-PAB-cellulose is heavily contaminated with free ligand and releases it during the normal chromatographic conditions. 2) Estradiol spacer derivatives (hydroxyethylphenyl-diazo (2 or 4)-estradiol) have a very low affinity for the receptor (Ki = 10 muM). The conclusion is that estradiol-PAB-cellulose is unsuitable for affinity chromatography of estradiol receptor.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based vectors have emerged as an effective and widely used technology for somatic gene therapy approaches, including those targeting the retina. A major advantage of the AAV technology is the availability of a large number of serotypes that have either been isolated from nature or produced in the laboratory. These serotypes have different properties in terms of sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies, cellular transduction profile and efficiency.
