Abstract:[Abstract]Objective: To construct double fluorescent oncolytic vaccinia virus expressing both GFP and DsRed with the dual deletion of vaccinia growth factor(VGF) and thymidine kinase(TK), and to explore the effect of virus on the cell lysis of pancreatic cancer cells in vitro. Methods: GFP regulated by the viral late promoter and DsRed controlled by early and late promoter SEL were inserted into viral TK locus by homologous recombination with parental viral VSC20, which was deleted by VGF gene. The anticancer effect of vvDDGFPDsRed was tested by CCK8 and crystal violet staining in vitro. Results: Recombinant vvDDGFPDsRed was got by homologous recombination and purified by soft agarose. CCK8 detection results showed that compared with MOI=0, when MOI=1,10 respectively, vvDDGFPDsRed had stronger lytic effect on Patu8988 and BxPC3 cells, and the lytic effect gradually increased among the range with MOI value increasing(P<0.05). Compared with MOI=0, the survival rate of Patu8988 cells was lower when MOI=0.01(P<0.05); and in the crystal violet staining method the plaque could obviously be seen. Conclusion: vvDDGFPDsRed recombinant oncolytic poxvirus was successfully constructed, which is able to kill pancreatic cancer cells in vitro.
