主 题:cancer therapy gene targeting viral vector targeting gene-virus
摘 要:Gene therapy and viral therapy for cancer have therapeutic effects,but there has been nosignificant breakthrough in these two forms of ***,a new strategy called “targeting gene-virotherapy,which combines the advantages of gene therapy and viral therapy,has been *** therapy has stronger antitumor effects than either gene therapy or viral therapy.A tumor-specific repli-cative adenovirus vector ZD55 (E1B55KD deleted Adv.)was constructed and various single therapeuticgenes were inserted into ZD55 to form *** are the targeting gene-virotherapy *** showed that a single gene was not effective in eliminating the tumor mass,and therefore twogenes were separately inserted into *** strategy is called “targeting dual gene-virotherapy(withPCT patent).Better results were obtained with this strategy,and all the xenograft tumor masses were com-pletely eliminated in all mice when two suitable genes producing a synergetic or compensative effect ***-six papers on these strategies have been published by researchers in our ***,an adenoviral vector with two targeting promoters harboring two antitumor genes has beenconstructed for cancer *** results have been obtained with this adenoviral vector and anotherpatent has been applied *** antitumor strategy can be used to kill tumor cells completely with minimumdamage to normal cells.
