摘要:
The invention relates to the generation and the use of hepacivirus pseudo-particles containing native functional E1, E2 envelope glycoproteins assembled onto retroviral core particles. These particles are highly infectious and constitute a valid model of hepacivirus virion.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method and compositions for modifying a phenotype of a virus, such as viral tropism and host range, by iterative sequence recombination of variant viruses and selection of improved variants.
摘要:
Diabetes mellitus is a disease of elevated blood glucose, often directly related to a deficiency in insulin production or insulin receptor production. The innovative strategy of treatment described here utilizes modified viruses and virus-like vehicles to act as a transport mechanism to deliver modified messenger RNA molecules to target cells in the body. Delivering to the Beta cells in the body the modified messenger RNA needed to construction of insulin or insulin receptors will lead to enhanced production of biologically active insulin or insulin receptors by Beta cells as necessary, which will lead to correcting deficiencies in insulin or insulin receptors the result of which will help properly regulate blood glucose levels throughout the body utilizing innate regulatory mechanisms.
