In an attempt to increase the transfection efficiency of adenoviral vectors in vivo, Gregory et al 17 assessed the effects of sodium caprate (a tight junction opener) application to the luminal surface of AECs in mouse lung, with the rationale that CAR expression is higher on the basolateral surface of epithelial cells.
