摘要：
Simvastatin is used to modulate VSV infection at the level of viral replication. Both lipid-lowering and pleiotropic cellular effects of simvastatin are exploited in the modulation. Simvastatin upregulates the expression of Rael and Nup98, therefore altering normal cellular mRNA distribution and reverting VSVs mRNA export block. Furthermore, simvastatin causes redistribution of Flotillin-1, which affects VSV replication/budding. Simvastatin is further used as a neoadjuvant for the selective modulatory control of live VSV oncolytic therapy.
