Replication-competent retrovirus vectors for cancer gene therapy.
Oncolytic virotherapy represents an emerging field with tremendous promise for harnessing the replicative capabilities of viruses against rapidly proliferating cancer cells. Among the different replicating virus technologies being tested, replication-competent retrovirus (RCR) vectors based on murine leukemia virus (MLV) exhibit unique characteristics. MLV exhibits intrinsic tumor selectivity d...
متن کاملDetection of replication competent retrovirus and lentivirus.
Retroviral vectors based on murine leukemia viruses (MuLV) have been used in clinical investigations for over a decade. Alternative retroviruses, most notably vectors based on HIV-1 and other lentiviruses, are now entering into clinical trials. Although vectors are designed to be replication defective, recombination events during vector production could lead to the generation of replication com...
متن کاملReplication-competent retrovirus vectors for the transfer and expression of gene cassettes in avian cells.
We have constructed a series of replication-competent retrovirus vectors to introduce and express gene cassettes in avian cells. To characterize these vectors, we inserted the coding sequences for the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene linked to the chicken beta-actin gene promoter or the mouse metallothionein 1 gene promoter. In all cases, we found the structure of integrat...
متن کاملTransgene Expression and Host Cell Responses to Replication-Defective, Single-Cycle, and Replication-Competent Adenovirus Vectors
Most adenovirus (Ad) vectors are E1 gene deleted replication defective (RD-Ad) vectors that deliver one transgene to the cell and all expression is based on that one gene. In contrast, E1-intact replication-competent Ad (RC-Ad) vectors replicate their DNA and their transgenes up to 10,000-fold, amplifying transgene expression markedly higher than RD-Ad vectors. While RC-Ad are more potent, they...
متن کاملFollow-Up Visits in Doctor-Patient Communication: The Vietnamese Case
In a “follow-up visit”, a patient seeks medical attention for an existing health problem. Using data from the Vietnamese public hospital system, we present a more nuanced analysis of follow-ups in health communication than the one currently available. To be specific, we discriminate between “same follow-ups”, in which the doctor is the same one as in the last visit, and “different follow-ups”, ...
