In vivo dynamics of AAV-mediated gene delivery to sensory neurons of the trigeminal ganglia

Abstract The ability to genetically manipulate trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons would be useful in the study of the craniofacial nervous system and latent alphaherpesvirus infections. We investigated adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors for gene delivery to the TG after intradermal whiskerpad delive...
