Generation of novel oncolytic vaccinia virus with improved intravenous efficacy through protection against complement-mediated lysis and evasion of neutralization by vaccinia virus... by Dong-Sup Lee, Mi-Ju Park, Namhee Lee, Yun-Hui Jeon, Jiyoon Yoo, Suk-kyung Shin, Songyi Lee, Byung-Jin Jung, Yun-Kyoung Hong, Keunhee Oh

“…Although systemic delivery of the oncolytic virus would maximize viral immunotherapy’s potential, this remains a hurdle due to the rapid removal of the administered virus by the complement and innate immune system. Infected cells produce some vaccinia viruses as extracellular enveloped virions, which evade complement attack and achieve longer survival by expressing host complement regulatory proteins (CRPs) on the host-derived envelope. …”
