Characterization of VCN-01 in PNET cell lines in vitro. (A) Expression of adenoviral receptors CAR, αvβ3 integrin and αvβ5 integrin in CNS-PNET cell lines PFSK-1 (left) and SK-PN-DW (right). Graph shows the percentage of stained cells for each receptor (Mean ± SD; n = 3). (B) PFSK-1 and SK-PN-DW (200,000 cells) infected with the GFP expressing vector AdTLRGDK at MOIs of 0, 0.1, 1, 10 or 100 PFU/cell. Graph indicates the percentage of GFP positive cells expression measured by flow cytometry at 24 h (white bars) or 48 h (black bars) after the infection (Mean ± SD; n = 3). (C) Detection of the viral proteins E1A and fiber in whole-cell lysates 48 h after being from PFSK-1 and SK-PN-DW from VCN-01 infected PFSK-1 and SK-PN-DW cultures. Grb2 was used as loading control protein. Blots from different parts of the same gel have been grouped to improve clarity of the image. (D) Viral titers in PFSK-1 and SK-PN-DW (50,000 cells/well) cultures 72 h after being infected with VCN-01 at MOIs 1 and 10. Bars represent total PFUs contained in the lysates (Mean ± SD; n = 3).
