Abstract:
The invention provides a replication-deficient serotype 28 adenoviral vector characterized by comprising a portion of a serotype 45 adenoviral hexon protein and/or a portion of a serotype 45 fiber protein in place of the endogenous serotype 28 hexon and/or fiber protein.
Abstract:
The invention provides an adenovirus or adenoviral vector characterized by comprising one or more particular nucleic acid sequences or one or more particular amino acid sequences, or portions thereof, pertaining to, for example, an adenoviral pIX protein, DNA polymerase protein, penton protein, hexon protein, and/or fiber protein.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a replication-deficient adenoviral vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a human atonal homolog-1 (Hath1) protein operably linked to a human glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter. The invention also is directed to a composition and method utilizing the adenoviral vector to generate sensory cells in the inner ear of a human.

Abstract:
The invention provides a method of expressing an exogenous nucleic acid in a mammal. The method comprises slowly releasing into the bloodstream a dose of replication-deficient or conditionally-replicating adenoviral vector having reduced ability to transduce mesothelial cells and hepatocytes. The normalized average bloodstream concentration of the adenovirus over 24 hours post-administration is at least about 1%. Alternatively, the normalized average bloodstream concentration over 24 hours post-administration is at least about 5-fold greater than the normalized average bloodstream concentration for an equivalent dose of a wild-type adenoviral vector. A method of destroying tumor cells in a mammal also is provided.
