This product is a vasculostatin expressing oncolytic herpes simplex virus, which is based on HSV-1 with ICP27 deleted. ICP27 is highly cytotoxic probably due to its secondary role of preventing the splicing of pre-mRNAs in favour of translation from the mainly unspliced hepes RNAs. Deletion of ICP27 might produce a safer and less cytotoxic system when combined with other oncolytic-rendered modifications. This product can be used in oncolytic virotherapy research and further recombinant HSV construction.

Backbone Background
Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), also known as human herpesvirus 1 and 2 (HHV-1 and HHV-2), are two members of the human Herpesviridae family, a set of viruses that produce viral infections in the majority of humans. Modified Herpes simplex virus is considered as a potential therapy for cancer and has been extensively clinically tested to assess its oncolytic ability.

Introduction
Vasculostatin, a proteolytic fragment of brain Angiogenesis inhibitor 1, is an antiangiogenic and antitumorigenic factor, inhibited migration of endothelial cells in vitro and dramatically reduced in vivo angiogenesis.
