NEW ONCOLYTIC VIRUS PLATFORM TO TREAT CANCERS WITH MYXOMA VIRUS
Disclosed herein, in certain embodiments, are recombinant myxoma viruses (MYXVs) and nucleic acid constructs encoding the recombinant MYXVs. In some embodiments, the MYXVs are engineered to inactivate or attenuate an activity or expression level of an M153 protein. In some embodiments, the MYXVs are engineered to express one or more transgenes such as a tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-12 (IL-12), or decorin. Also disclosed herein, in certain embodiments, are methods of using the MYXVs. Some embodiments include providing a MYXV as described herein to a subject in need thereof.
Echovirus for treatment of tumors
Provided are use of an Echovirus 25 (ECHO25) or a modified form thereof, or a nucleic acid molecule comprising a genomic sequence or cDNA sequence of the ECHO25 or a modified form thereof, or a complementary sequence of the genomic sequence or cDNA sequence, in treatment of a tumor in a subject, and in the manufacture of a medicament for treatment a tumor in a subject.
Recombinant rhabdovirus encoding for CCL21
The present invention relates to the field of oncolytic viruses and in particular to a recombinant rhabdovirus, such as vesicular stomatitis virus encoding in its genome for a CCL21 protein. The invention is further directed to the use of the recombinant virus in the treatment of cancer, and also to methods for producing such viruses.

ENGINEERED BACTERIOPHAGE T4 NANOPARTICLES AS A POTENTIAL TARGETED ACTIVATOR OF HIV-1 LATENCY IN CD4+ HUMAN T-CELLS
Described is an engineered viral particle programmed with T cell targeting specificity. The viral particles comprise: at least one viral vector, such as bacteriophage T4; and at least one CD4-binding protein displayed on the surface of the viral vector. Also described is a method of reactivate latent HIV-1 and cure patient with HIV-1 infection, using such an engineered viral particle.

STEM CELLS FOR TRANSPLANTATION AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR
It is intended to provide MSCs for transplantation that have an improved post-transplantation cell survival rate and engraftment rate and are highly safe with fewer adverse reactions, and a method for conveniently producing MSCs for transplantation having a high cell survival rate and engraftment rate. As means therefor, the present invention provides a stem cell for transplantation comprising an MSC capable of overexpressing IL-10.

ADENO-ASSOCIATED VIRUS FOR THERAPEUTIC DELIVERY TO CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
A method to prevent, inhibit or treat one or more symptoms associated with disease of the central nervous system by intranasally, intrathecally, intracerebrovascularly or intravenously administering a rAAV encoding a gene product associated with the disease, e.g., a mammal in which the gene product is absent or present at a reduced level relative to a mammal without the disease, in an amount effective, e.g., to provide for cross-correction.
