Oncolytic Foamy Virus: Generation and Properties of a Nonpathogenic Replicating Retroviral Vector System That Targets Chronically Proliferating Cancer Cells
The infectivity of certain retroviruses is limited to dividing cells, which makes them attractive tools for targeting cancer cell proliferation. Previously developed replication-competent gammaretroviral vectors spread efficiently in rapidly dividing cancer cells, but not in cancer cells that divide more slowly.
