Highly Efficient Transduction of Human Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells with Subgroup B Fiber-Modified Adenovirus Vectors Enhances Transgene-Encoded Antigen Presentation to Cytotoxic T Cells

Abstract excerpt

The efficiency of dendritic cells (DC) as immunotherapeutic vaccines critically depends on optimal delivery of target Ags. Although DC modified by subgroup C type 5 recombinant adenoviruses (rAd5) provide encouraging results, their clinical application is hampered by the need for high viral titers to achieve sufficient gene transfer, due to the lack of the Ad5 fiber receptor. We now demonstrate that rAd5 carrying...
