Myxoma virus (MYXV) is a poxvirus with a strict rabbit-specific host-tropism for pathogenesis. The immunoregulatory factors encoded by MYXV can suppress some functions of immune effectors from other species. We review their mechanisms of action, implications in therapeutics and the potential to improve MYXV as an oncolytic agent in humans.
粘液瘤病毒(MYXV)是一种严格的兔源痘病毒,对发病机制具有特异性宿主趋向性。MYXV 编码的免疫调节因子可以抑制来自其他物种的免疫效应物的某些功能。我们综述了它们的作用机制、在治疗中的意义以及提高 MYXV 作为人类溶瘤剂的潜力。
