    摘要: The present invention encompasses replication deficient or a replication competent adenoviral vectors which may comprise moieties covering and shielding the vector from the effects of humoral immune responses, as well as a method of constructing and using such vectors. The preferred viral constructs may incorporate the shielding moieties into the pIX coat protein of the adenovirus vectors. The invention also provides recombinant viral vectors with both shielding and specific targeting abilities. Preferably, the viral vector may comprise a nucleic acid sequence, which codes for therapeutically important genes. Methods for treating of a host with an effective amount of adenovirus vector of the present invention are also provided.

    摘要: The present invention provides a complex that includes a virion having a ligand that recognizes an epitope present on an immune effector cell surface and at least a first nucleic acid encoding a first non-native antigen. The invention also provides a library including a plurality of such complexes, in which antigens of at least two of the plurality are different. Using such reagents, the invention provides a method of precipitating an immune response within an immune effector cell, wherein such a complex is delivered to the cell under conditions sufficient for the cell to mount an immune response to the antigen. When applied in vivo, the method can serve to immunize an animal from the pathogen. Moreover, using a library including a plurality of complexes, which contains at least one test antigen, the invention provides a method of assessing the antigenicity of the test antigen.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method of modulating the persistence of expression of a trans gene in an at least E4&Dgr; adenoidal vector in a cell. In one embodiment, the method comprises contacting the cell with an at least E4&Dgr; adenoidal vector comprising (i) a transgene and (ii) a gene encoding a trans-acting factor, which is not from the E4 region of an adenovirus and which modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene. In another embodiment, the method comprises contacting the cell simultaneously or sequentially with (i) an at least E4&Dgr; adenoidal vector comprising a transgene and (ii) a viral vector comprising a gene encoding a trans-acting factor, which is not from the E4 region of an adenovirus and which modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene. In addition, the present invention provides a recombinant at least E4&Dgr; adenoviral vector for use in the method and a composition comprising the vector and a carrier therefor. Also provided by the present invention is a system for modulation of a recombinant at least E4&Dgr; adenoviral vector for use in the method and a composition comprising the system and a carrier there for.
