Autophagy gene activity may act as a key factor for sensitivity of tumor cells to oncolytic vesicular stomatitis virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Beclin1 is an important, primary molecule for autophagy. Objectives: It is suggested that the control of the autophagy path increases the sensitivity of tumor cells to VSV.

Combinatorial Approaches for Cancer Treatment Using Oncolytic Viruses: Projecting the Perspectives through Clinical Trials Outcomes

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Recent cancer immunotherapy breakthroughs have fundamentally changed oncology and revived the fading hope for a cancer cure. The immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) became an indispensable tool for the treatment of many malignant tumors.

Oncolytic viruses: finally delivering [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2016
Oncolytic viruses can be found at the confluence of virology, genetic engineering and pharmacology where versatile platforms for molecularly targeted anticancer agents can be designed and optimised. Oncolytic viruses offer several important advantages over traditional approaches, including the following.

Oncolytic Viruses as Anticancer Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2014
Oncolytic virotherapy has shown impressive results in preclinical studies and first promising therapeutic outcomes in clinical trials as well. Since viruses are known for a long time as excellent vaccination agents, oncolytic viruses are now designed as novel anticancer agents combining the aspect of lysis-dependent cytoreductive activity with ...

Designing and Building Oncolytic Viruses [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Virology, 2017
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are engineered and/or evolved to propagate selectively in cancerous tissues. They have a dual mechanism of action; direct killing of infected cancer cells cross-primes anticancer immunity to boost the killing of uninfected cancer cells.

Enhancement of vaccinia virus based oncolysis with histone deacetylase inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDI) dampen cellular innate immune response by decreasing interferon production and have been shown to increase the growth of vesicular stomatitis virus and HSV.

YB-1 dependent oncolytic adenovirus efficiently inhibits tumor growth of glioma cancer stem like cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: The brain cancer stem cell (CSC) model describes a small subset of glioma cells as being responsible for tumor initiation, conferring therapy resistance and tumor recurrence.

The current status of oncolytic viral therapy for head and neck cancer

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2016
Objective: Cancer affects the head and neck region frequently and leads to significant morbidity and mortality. Oncolytic viral therapy has the potential to make a big impact in cancers that affect the head and neck. We intend to review the current state

Advances in the design and development of oncolytic measles viruses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A successful oncolytic virus is one that selectively propagates and destroys cancerous tissue without causing excessive damage to the normal surrounding tissue. Oncolytic measles virus (MV) is one such virus that exhibits this characteristic and thus has

Oncolytic Virotherapy: From Bench to Bedside

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Oncolytic viruses are naturally occurring or genetically engineered viruses that can replicate preferentially in tumor cells and inhibit tumor growth. These viruses have been considered an effective anticancer strategy in recent years.
