Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) 2023The nonhuman primate (NHP) animal model is an important predictive preclinical model for developing gene and cell therapies. It is also an experimental animal model used to study hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) biology, with the capability of serving as a step for the translation of the basic research concepts from small animals to humans. Lentiviral vectors are currently the standard gene delivery vehicles for transduction of HSPCs in the clinical setting. They have proven to be less genotoxic and more efficient than the previously used murine γ-retroviruses. Transplantation of lentiviral vector-transduced HSPCs into autologous macaques has been well developed over the past two decades. In this chapter, we provide detailed methodologies for lentiviral vector transduction of rhesus macaque HSPCs, including production and titration of lentiviral vector, purification of CD34+ HSPCs, and lentiviral vector transduction and assessment. © 2023.
