Methods for gene transfer to the central nervous system
2014, Advances in GeneticsCitation Excerpt :Several HSV vectors take advantage of underlying defects in molecular pathways of tumor cells. HSV-1 vectors express the tk gene, which encodes thymidine kinase, which results in apoptosis of host cells (Kuriyama et al., 1995; Vile & Hart, 1993) Modification of envelope proteins can increase infectivity of tumor cells, which bear the corresponding receptors (Grandi, Spear, Breakefield, & Wang, 2004; Grandi, Wang, et al., 2004)
