GM-CSF-expressing Oncolytic Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (ΔICP10PK), IE4/5-GM-CSF(Cat#: CyOV-0339XY)

This product is a GM-CSF expressing oncolytic herpes simplex virus, which is based on HSV-2 with ICP10PK deleted. The herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) protein ICP10PK has anti-apoptotic activity independent of other viral proteins that ICP10 PK-induced activation of the ERK survival pathway results in Bag-1 upregulation. The deletion of ICP10PK can enhance the oncolytic activity. 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.

Information

Introduction Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), also known as colony-stimulating factor 2 (CSF2), is a monomeric glycoprotein secreted by macrophages, T cells, mast cells, natural killer cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts that functions as a cytokine. Unlike granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, which specifically promotes neutrophil proliferation and maturation, GM-CSF affects more cell types, especially macrophages and eosinophils.
