Abstract excerpt
Bacteria are highly versatile and useful tools that could deliver short interfering RNA. In this study, a phoP/phoQ double-deleted Salmonella Typhimurium named VNP(PhoP/Q(-)) based on the genetic background of VNP20009. The biological safety and function of VNP(PhoP/Q(-)) were also analyzed. Our study revealed the following results: (1) VNP(PhoP/Q(-)) exhibited lower titers in tumor-free livers and spleens than...
