Gene therapy has recently been advanced by the development of HIV-based vectors that are able to transduce some non-dividing cells. The manipulation of most non-dividing cells remains, however, scarcely efficient. One of the biological mechanisms postulated to prevent powerful transduction of quiescent cells by lentiviral vectors is the paucity of deoxynucleotides (dNTPs). In this study, a novel delivery strategy is developed to improve significantly the efficiency of HIV-based vectors in transducing non-dividing cells. This approach is based on increasing the intracellular availability of dNTPs by incubating target cells with the dNTP precursors, deoxynucleosides (dNSs).
