Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A recombinant HSV-1, T-01, killed 16 out of 21 human cell lines of hematological malignancies. Positive correlations were observed among the expression levels of HSV-1 receptor nectin-1, entry of T-01, and cytotoxicity. In accord with it, knockdown of nectin-1 decreased entry of T-01, and forced expression of nectin-1 induced cytotoxic activity. These data indicate that viral entry via nectin-1 is a determining factor of cytotoxicity by oncolytic HSV-1 against hematological malignancies, and that the expression of nectin-1 is a biomarker of the susceptibility of hematological malignancies to HSV-1.
