Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to establish a novel treatment by conditionally replicating adenovirus (CRA) targeted to human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1). HTLV-1 is a causative virus of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). We reconfirmed that the HTLV-1 bZIP factor (HBZ) gene is expressed in HTLV-1 infected cells. We are developing HBZ promoter-dependent CRA (HBZ.CRA) that erades only HTLV-1 infected cells.
