摘要:
An adenoviral vector comprising (a) an adenoviral genome deficient in the E4 region of the adenoviral genome, (b) a nucleic acid sequence coding for TNF, and (c) a radiation inducible promoter operably linked to the nucleic acid sequence coding for TNF. This invention also provides an adenoviral vector comprising (a) an adenoviral genome deficient in the E4 region of the adenoviral genome, (b) a nucleic acid sequence coding for TNF, and (c) a spacer element of at least 15 base pairs in the E4 region of the adenoviral genome. A method of producing an adenoviral vector and a method of treating a tumor or cancer in a host comprising administering an anti-cancer or anti-tumor effective amount of the adenoviral vector of the present invention also is provided.
摘要:
The invention provides a gene transfer vector and a conjugate comprising at least three contiguous amino acids of a shaft region of a subgroup C adenovirus fiber protein. The invention also provides methods of using the gene transfer vector and the conjugate to induce an immune response in a mammal, and to deliver a protein or a non-proteinaceous molecule to a specific cell type.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of inducing an immune response in a mammal. The method comprises administering to the mammal a non-subgroup C adenoviral vector comprising an adenoviral fiber protein having an amino acid sequence comprising about 80 % or more identity to an amino acid sequence encoding a subgroup C adenoviral fiber protein. The adenoviral vector further comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding an antigen which is expressed in the mammal to induce an immune response. The invention further comprises a method of producing an adenoviral vector, and a composition comprising a serotype 41 or a serotype 35 adenoviral vector and a carrier. The invention also provides an adenoviral vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding an adenoviral pIX protein operably linked to a heterologous expression control sequence, as well as a method of enhancing the stability and/or packaging capacity of an adenoviral vector.

摘要:
The invention provides adenoviral vectors comprising an adenoviral genome comprising heterologous antigen-encoding nucleic acid sequences, such as Plasmodium nucleic acid sequences, operably linked to promoters. The invention further provides a method of inducing an immune response against malaria in a mammal comprising administering the adenoviral vectors to the mammal.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of inducing an immune response against a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in a mammal. The method comprises administering to the mammal an adenoviral vector composition comprising one or more adenoviral vectors encoding two or more different HIV antigens, the production of which induces an immune response against HIV in the mammal. The invention also provides an adenoviral vector composition comprising four adenoviral vectors encoding an HIV clade A Env protein, an HIV clade B Env protein, an HIV clade C Env protein, and a fusion protein comprising an HIV clade B Gag protein and Pol protein, respectively.
