Fusogenic oncolytic vaccinia virus enhances systemic antitumor immune response by modulating the tumor microenvironment

Motomu Nakatake et al.

Summary: The novel fusogenic oncolytic vaccinia virus (FUVAC) showed enhanced cytopathic effects and immunogenic cell death in cancer cells compared to its nonfusogenic parent virus. FUVAC not only inhibited tumor growth in both treated and untreated tumors in mice, but also improved the tumor immune microenvironment, leading to systemic antitumor immunity. Administering FUVAC before immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment resulted in complete responses in both treated and untreated tumors, establishing a long-term tumor-specific immune memory.

Zika virus oncolytic activity requires CD8+ T cells and is boosted by immune checkpoint blockade

Sharmila Nair et al.

Summary: Zika virus targets GBM stem cells and prevents tumor growth by recruiting CD8(+) T cells and myeloid cells. While anti-PD-1 antibody alone moderately improves survival, combining it with ZIKV treatment significantly increases survival rate. Immune-sensitized ZIKV strain shows promise for safe and effective combination therapy with immunotherapies for GBM patients.

Rational design of West Nile virus vaccine through large replacement of 3′ UTR with internal poly(A)

Ya-Nan Zhang et al.

Summary: The development of a new live-attenuated vaccine, WNV-poly(A), shows promising results with efficient propagation and high attenuation in mouse models, providing full protection after a single dose vaccination. This poly(A) vaccine strategy may have wide applications in the development of flavivirus live-attenuated vaccines due to its general target regions in flaviviruses.

Antigen presentation in cancer: insights into tumour immunogenicity and immune evasion

Suchit Jhunjhunwala et al.

Summary: This review discusses the importance of antigen presentation in the success of immune checkpoint inhibition therapy and mechanisms by which tumors evade immune recognition. Tumors evade immune recognition by modulating antigen expression and altering antigen presentation.
