Mutant myogenin promoter-controlled oncolytic adenovirus selectively kills PAX3-FOXO1-positive rhabdomyosarcoma cells
17 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
The PAX3-FOXO1 fusion gene functions as a transactivator and increases expression of many cancer-related genes. These lead to metastases and other unfavorable outcomes for alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) patients. In order to target ARMS with the PAX3-FOXO1 transactivator, we developed an Oncolytic Adenovirus (OAd) regulated by the myogenin (pMYOG) promoter with a mutation in the Myocyte Enhancer Factor-2...
