264 26085010 Mannan-modified adenovirus targeting TERT and VEGFR-2: A universal tumour vaccine.
265 26085010 Here we report the design and application of mannan-modified adenovirus that expresses both telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2).
266 26085010 Cytotoxic T lymphocytes that are reactive to TERT and VEGFR-2 are capable of mounting an anti-tumour response in murine breast and colon tumour models and in a lung metastatic model.
