Durability of a Vesicular Stomatitis Virus-Based Marburg Virus Vaccine in Nonhuman Primates
The filoviruses, Marburg virus (MARV) and Ebola virus, causes severe hemorrhagic fever with high mortality in humans and nonhuman primates. A promising filovirus vaccine under development is based on a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV) that ...

Vesicular Stomatitis Virus mRNA and Inhibition of Translation of Cellular mRNA—Is There a P Function in Vesicular Stomatitis Virus? [PDF]
Infection of animal cells by vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) results in inhibition of translation of cellular mRNA. We showed previously that, in BHK cells infected by the Glasgow isolate of VSV Indiana, this is due to competition during the initiation step of protein synthesis of viral and cellular mRNA for a constant, limiting number of ribosomes ...

Spatiotemporal Regulation of STING Activity by Linear Ubiquitination Governs Antiviral Immunity
This study uncovers a spatiotemporal regulation of STING activity by linear ubiquitination in antiviral immunity. At the early stage of the infection, LUBAC promotes STING linear ubiquitination to drive its trafficking from the ER to the Golgi apparatus for activation.

Pseudotyping exosomes for enhanced protein delivery in mammalian cells. [PDF]
Exosomes are cell-derived nanovesicles that hold promise as living vehicles for intracellular delivery of therapeutics to mammalian cells. This potential, however, is undermined by the lack of effective methods to load exosomes with therapeutic proteins ...

Background: The vesicular stomatitis virus G (VSVG) protein is a transmembran glycoprotein, which is involved in virus attachment to the specific receptor at the cell surface. This protein has been widely used to study therapeutic gene delivery. However,

Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) Therapy of Tumors [PDF]
AbstractVesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is an essentially nonpathogenic negative‐stranded RNA virus, the replication of which is extremely sensitive to the antiviral effects of interferon (IFN). We demonstrate here that VSV selectively induces the cytolysis of numerous transformed human cell lines in vitro, with all the morphological characteristics ...

Bacterial Foreignization Nanosystem Elicits Multi‐Phenotypic T Cells for Antitumor Immunity
In this study, a comprehensive strategy for tumor immunogenicity reshaping is implemented, in which all adjuvanticity, antigenicity, and reactogenicity of tumor cells are highly improved by an engineered bacterial nanosystem through a selective membrane fusion process. The resulting foreignized tumor cells evoke potent innate immune responses, inducing

Engineering a serum-resistant and thermostable vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein for pseudotyping retroviral and lentiviral vectors. [PDF]
Vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein (VSV-G) is the most widely used envelope protein for retroviral and lentiviral vector pseudotyping; however, serum inactivation of VSV-G pseudotyped vectors is a significant challenge for in vivo gene delivery ...
