Table 2.

The producing systems of enterovirus-related virus-like particle (VLP).

VLP-producing systems Yield capacity Properties Status Ref.
Baculovirus-insect cell Moderate (64.3 mg/L) Moderate-yield; Relatively high cost; Large stocks (cell & viruses); Contamination risk of virus Lab (Chung et al. 2010)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast Low (0.25 mg/L) Low-yield; Low cost; Ease in manipulation Lab (Li et al. 2013)
Pichia pastoris yeast High (270 mg/L) High-yield; Low cost; Easy manipulation Clinical trial (CXSL1900022) (Yang et al. 2019)
Recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV)

Attenuated(ΔM51);

Replication-competent and may have adverse effects

Lab (Yan et al. 2016)
Recombinant adenovirus 5 (Ad-EVVLP)

Replication-incompetent(ΔE1/ΔE3); 3C-specific cellular immunity

Ad-EVVLPs from EV71 genes can protect against CVA16 infection

Lab (Tsou et al. 2015)
