Effectiveness of therapy with a multistranded synthetic polynucleotide complex against a murine sarcoma virus.

چکیده
A known interferon stimulator, polyriboinosinic acid:polyribocytidylic acid (rI:rC), was shown to have a protective effect against a highly tumorigenic variant of the murine sarcoma virus (Moloney) designated as (MSV-PV). Mice treated intraperitoneally with different regimens of rI:rC survived significantly longer than untreated controls. The treatment was effective whether the infection with MSV-PV was intraperitoneal or intracerebral. The antiviral effectiveness of rI:rC was demonstrated by marked reduction of viral replication. The kinetic study of interferon induction by rI:rC showed a peak titer of interferon occurring at 18 hr after injection, followed by a rapid decrease in titer by 24 hr.

The direct intramuscular delivery of naked plasmid DNA has been demonstrated to allow expression of encoded heterologous genes in the target myocytes. The method has been employed to elicit immunization based upon delivery of antigen encoding plasmid DNA. For application in the context of achieving anti-tumor immunization against antigenic transforming oncoproteins, delivery of plasmid DNAs enc...

Introduction: Long term complications of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection include fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma and although the disease is treatable with the newly introduced direct acting antivirals, but factors such as drug resistance, viral genotype and adverse effects can limit the effectiveness of therapy. Therefore, development of effective, safe and affordable proph...
