摘要: ABSTRACT The use of viral thymidine kinase (TK) gene coupled with the administration ganciclovir to render cancer cell death has been studied extensively. Many these experiments utilized retrovirus transfer TK under control a nonspecific promoter. Because expression may cause proliferating cells, other than we explored liver-specific promoter and tumor-specific AFP enhancer achieve regulated for treatment hepatocellular carcinoma. We also used adeno-associated virus (AAV) as vector delivery because this is not associated any pathological consequences in humans. it can infect nondividing S-phase AAV genes into noncycling tumor cells. A recombinant was constructed include selectable marker neoR herpes simplex (HSV)-TK driven by human albumin T...
