Vaccinia Virus Infection Requires Maturation of Macropinosomes. [PDF]

, 2015
The prototypic poxvirus, vaccinia virus (VACV), occurs in two infectious forms, mature virions (MVs) and extracellular virions (EVs). Both enter HeLa cells by inducing macropinocytic uptake.

Construction of three strains of recombinant oncolytic vaccinia virus and their anti-tumor activity [PDF]

Jichu yixue yu linchuang, 2020
Objective The aim of this study is to construct a recombinant oncolytic vaccinia virus with CCL5 and SSTR2 genes and to detect its antitumor activity. Methods Recombinant vaccinia virus eukaryotic expression plasmid pSC65-CCL5-SSTR2-Luc+ was constructed.

Innate immune response of human plasmacytoid dendritic cells to poxvirus infection is subverted by vaccinia E3 via its Z-DNA/RNA binding domain.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) play important roles in antiviral innate immunity by producing type I interferon (IFN). In this study, we assess the immune responses of primary human pDCs to two poxviruses, vaccinia and myxoma virus.

Vaccinia Virus Infections in Martial Arts Gym, Maryland, USA, 2008

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
Vaccinia virus is an orthopoxvirus used in the live vaccine against smallpox. Vaccinia virus infections can be transmissible and can cause severe complications in those with weakened immune systems.

Antitumor efficacy of cytosine deaminase-armed vaccinia virus plus 5-fluorocytosine in colorectal cancers

Cancer Cell International, 2020
Background Vaccinia viruses have emerged as attractive therapeutic candidates for cancer treatment due to their inherent ability of tumor tropism and oncolytic property.

Correlative analysis from a phase I clinical trial of intrapleural administration of oncolytic vaccinia virus (Olvi-vec) in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundThe attenuated, genetically engineered vaccinia virus has been shown to be a promising oncolytic virus for the treatment of patients with solid tumors, through both direct cytotoxic and immune-activating effects.

Purification of Vaccinia Virus

American Journal of Public Health and the Nations Health, 1934
THE success attained by chemists in preparing purified or concentrated extracts of tissue containing enzymes and other biological products has stimulated similar attempts upon the tissues of animals infected with filterable viruses.1 2 8 The virus of vaccinia has received considerable attention in this respect, due in part perhaps to the economy and ...

In-vitro demonstration of cell-mediated immunity to vaccinia virus in man [PDF]

, 1975
Cell mediated immunity to vaccinia virus in man was studied by lymphocyte transformation. Vaccinia antigen, propagated on BHK-21 and Vero cells, could be used successfully for in-vitro testing after partial purification as well as crude infectious ...

Studies on the Structure of Vaccinia Virus [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1964
SUMMARY: Vaccinia virus has been examined with the electron microscope by several techniques in conjunction with experimental modifications of structure. Negative staining revealed that over 80% of the virus in highly purified preparations were particles which appeared to have a beaded surface like a mulberry and were termed M forms.

Targeting β2‐Adrenergic Receptor Stability With Lycorine Reveals a Host‐Directed Pathway for Antiviral Defense Against Poxviruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic stress drives autophagy‐mediated β2‐AR degradation, impairing antiviral immunity and promoting poxvirus lethality. Lycorine directly stabilizes β2‐AR to restore host defense, suppress excessive inflammation and improve survival. ABSTRACT Psychological stress is a pervasive yet poorly understood modulator of infectious disease outcomes. Here, we
