These results show the attractive potential of plant virus VLPs to deliver molecular therapy to tumor cells with low immunogenic response.

Plant bromoviruses, such as the brome mosaic virus (BMV), are viral bionanoparticles that have been proposed as platforms for drug delivery in different therapies, and as diagnostic imaging agents in cancer [18
