Exploring Reovirus Plasticity for Improving Its Use as Oncolytic Virus
24 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
Reoviruses are non-enveloped viruses with a segmented double stranded RNA genome. In humans, they are not associated with serious disease. Human reoviruses exhibit an inherent preference to replicate in tumor cells, which makes them ideally suited for use in oncolytic virotherapies.
