Oncolytic virotherapy for osteosarcoma using midkine promoter-regulated adenoviruses.

abstract：:CD70 (CD27 ligand (CD27L)), CD153 (CD30L), and CD154 (CD40L) are members of the tumor necrosis factor family of costimulatory molecules and expressed on the surface of T cells that are important for both T- and B-cell help. We examined the capacity for expression of these tumor necrosis factor family members on tumor ...
