  • Publication number: 20230332177
    Abstract: A packaging system for a coronavirus pseudovirus, including a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) vector in which Fluc and EGFP dual-reporter genes replace a GP gene, and packaging cell that expresses a coronavirus spike protein. The packaging system may quickly package pseudoviruses by using a one-step packaging method, and may be used in the research of coronaviruses such as COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), SARS (SARS-CoV) and MERS, and other viruses. The packaging system and thereby pseudovirus method may also be used to evaluate the efficacy of disinfectants by means of virus contamination distribution models, setting up scenarios, and sampling and testing steps.

  • Patent number: 11732012
    Abstract: Provided is a modified matrix protein of a vesicular stomatitis virus, wherein the protein has amino acid substitutions at position 21, position 51, position 111 and position 221. Further provided are an attenuated strain of the vesicular stomatitis virus producing the modified matrix protein, a composition containing the attenuated strain, and uses thereof in preparing a drug for killing abnormally proliferating cells, inducing and promoting antitumor immune response, or eliminating immunosuppression in a microenvironment of a tumor tissue.

  • Publication number: 20220296659
    Abstract: Provided are a pharmaceutical composition for treatment of a tumor or cancer, and an application thereof. The pharmaceutical composition comprises an oncolytic rhabdovirus and a small molecule CD38 inhibitor such as rhein that are administered via direct local injection or systemic administration or intratumoral delivery. The oncolytic rhabdovirus has the characteristic of recognizing tumor cells and would not cause damage to normal cells. Meanwhile, the small molecule CD38 inhibitor has the activity of specifically inhibiting T-cell receptor molecules. The combined use of the oncolytic rhabdovirus and the small molecule CD38 inhibitor has significant advantages in safety and efficacy.

  • Patent number: 11384366
    Abstract: Provided are a method for establishing a lentiviral vector system capable of directly reflecting type I interferon response, and applications thereof. The method for establishing the lentiviral vector system comprises: cutting a Gaussia luciferase at the position of amino acid 109, removing 16 amino acids from N-terminus, and cloning the two polypeptides into a lentiviral vector to form a lentiviral BiLC expression vector; and cloning a shuttle plasmid of pEntry-IRF3 or pEntry-IRF5 or pEntry-IRF7 by homologous recombination into the lentiviral BiLC expression vector, so as to construct a lentiviral vector IRF3-BiLC or IRF5-BiLC or IRF7-BiLC capable of directly reflecting type I interferon response.
