CSF2 and melanoma: To demonstrate this enhanced effect on both tumor growth and survival, a novel recombinant VSV (rVSV)-mIL12-mGMCSF, co-expressing mouse IL-12 (interleukin-12) and GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor), was tested alongside rVSV-dM51-GFP (rVSV-GFP) that was injected intratumorally in a syngeneic in vivo C57BL/6 mouse model infused subcutaneously with B16-F10 melanoma cells.
