It targets Megakaryocyte and erythroid progenitor cells. Its icosahedral virions measure between 18-26 nm and consist of two different structural proteins, VP1 (5%) and VP2 (95%). Previous studies have demonstrated that these proteins can be expressed using a prokaryotic expression system to generate recombinant proteins that spontaneously assemble into virus-like particles (VLPs) under favorable conditions. These VLPs exhibit similar antigenicity to the natural B19V virus and do not contain genetic material, making them infection-safe. Various research studies have explored their potential as an antigen carrier by linking epitopes of different pathogens with varying degrees of success. However, extensive exploration of their potential as a nanoparticle drug carrier has been lacking. Therefore, this study aims to develop a B19V VLP drug delivery system and evaluate the impact of these particles on CT26 tumor cells. It was determined that B19V VLPs can carry Doxorubicin (DOX) by incorporating it during the VLP assembly process. MTT assays revealed that both B19V VLPs and VLP-DOX exhibited an anti-tumor effect in vitro and significantly inhibited tumor growth in vivo. This novel finding holds promise for potential applications in cancer treatment.人類微小病毒 B19病毒樣顆粒Parvovirus B19Virus-like particlesthesis
