In vivo antitumor activity of Sindbis viral vectors.
BACKGROUND Sindbis virus, a blood-borne virus transmitted by mosquitoes, has been used as a vector to efficiently express exogenous genes in vitro and in vivo and to induce apoptosis. Because Sindbis virus infects mammalian cells by interacting with the high-affinity laminin receptors, which are expressed at higher levels in several human cancers than in normal cells, we determined whether a Si...
متن کاملArteether Exerts Antitumor Activity and Reduces CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ T-reg Cells in Vivo
Background: Chemo-immunotherapy is one of the new achievements for treatment of cancer, by which the success of anti-cancer therapy can be increased. In vitro studies have been shown that Arteether (ARE) induces apoptosis in tumor cells, but not in normal cells. Objective: To investigate the cytotoxic and immunomodulatory properties of Arteether in-vivo and in-vitro. Methods: In this study, we ...
متن کاملUsing sindbis viral vectors for specific detection and suppression of advanced ovarian cancer in animal models.
We studied the therapeutic value of Sindbis vectors for advanced metastatic ovarian cancer by using two highly reproducible and clinically accurate mouse models: a SCID xenograft model, established by i.p. inoculation of human ES-2 ovarian cancer cells, and a syngenic C57BL/6 model, established by i.p. inoculation of mouse MOSEC ovarian cancer cells. We demonstrate through imaging, histologic, ...
متن کاملP164: Adeno-Associated Viral Vectors in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (BMD) is an inherited X-link disease. The incidence of this muscle-wasting disease is 1:5000 male live births. Mutation in the gene coding for dystrophin is the main cause of BMD. Most cases of this disease succumb to respiratory and cardiac failure in 3rd to 4th decades. The slow progression of BMD and recent achievement of gene therapies make it as an appropriate c...
متن کاملActivation of Cytotoxic and Regulatory Functions of NK Cells by Sindbis Viral Vectors
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) represent a relatively novel anti-cancer modality. Like other new cancer treatments, effective OV therapy will likely require combination with conventional treatments. In order to design combinatorial treatments that work well together, a greater scrutiny of the mechanisms behind the individual treatments is needed. Sindbis virus (SV) based vectors have previously been s...
