IJMM 2018; 12(3): 218-229 Background and Aims: Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are a new approach in treatment of cancer. Antitumor efficacy of OVs were limited due to insufficient and non-specific viral delivery to tumor sites. To overcome this issue, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were used for their ability to specifically homing into tumors. The main aim of this study was to use MSCs as carriers and investigate the effect of oncolytic reovirus infection in MSCs, induction of apoptosis, nitric oxide (NO) secretion and their effects for selectively killing tumor cells, to use in future.
