Transduction of human pancreatic tumor cells with vesicular stomatitis virus G-pseudotyped retroviral vectors containing a herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase mutant gene enhances bystander effects and sensitivity to ganciclovir.

Abstract excerpt

We examined the suitability of Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV) 4070A-, cat endogenous virus (CEV) RD114-, or vesicular stomatitis virus G (VSV-G)-pseudotyped retroviruses containing the humanized enhanced green fluorescent protein (hEGFP) or one of two herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV-TK) genes to transduce and provide gene expression in human pancreatic tumor cells. Fluorescence-activated cell...
