Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is an avian paramyxovirus that has been extensively studied as an oncolytic agent, in addition to being an economically important pathogen in the poultry industry. The establishment of a reverse genetics system for this virus has enabled the development of genetically modified recombinant NDV viruses with improved oncolytic and immunotherapeutic properties. In this chapter, we describe the materials and methods involved in the in vitro cloning and rescue of NDV expressing murine 4-1BBL as well as the in vivo evaluation of NDV expressing 4-1BBL in a B16-F10 murine melanoma model.
新城疫病毒(NDV)是一种禽副粘病毒,除了是家禽业中具有重要经济意义的病原体之外,还作为一种溶瘤剂受到了广泛研究。该病毒反向遗传学系统的建立,使得具有改进的溶瘤和免疫治疗特性的基因工程重组NDV病毒得以开发。在本章中,我们描述了表达小鼠4-1BBL的NDV体外克隆和拯救所涉及的材料和方法,以及在B16-F10小鼠黑色素瘤模型中对表达4-1BBL的NDV进行体内评估的情况。
