IL-15-expressing Oncolytic Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (ΔRL), CMV-IL-15(Cat#: CyOV-0305XY)

This product is a IL-15 expressing oncolytic herpes simplex virus, which is based on HSV-2 with RL deleted. The deletion lies entirely within the sequences deleted in JH2604 in which only 850 bp are removed from the RL. This product can be used in oncolytic virotherapy research and further recombinant HSV construction.

Information

Introduction Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a cytokine with structural similarity to Interleukin-2 (IL-2). Like IL-2, IL-15 binds to and signals through a complex composed of IL-2/IL-15 receptor beta chain (CD122) and the common gamma chain (gamma-C, CD132). IL-15 is secreted by mononuclear phagocytes (and some other cells) following infection by virus(es). This cytokine induces cell proliferation of natural killer cells; cells of the innate immune system whose principal role is to kill virally infected cells.
