Fully Detargeted Polyethylene Glycol-coated Adenovirus Vectors Are Potent Genetic Vaccines and Escape from Pre-existing Anti-adenovirus Antibodies

Abstract excerpt

Genetic vaccination with adenoviral (Ad) gene transfer vectors requires transduction of professional antigen-presenting cells. However, because the natural Ad receptors are expressed on many cell types, the Ad vectors currently in use are characterized by high promiscuity. In fact, the majority of injected Ad vector particles are likely to transduce non-target cells. We have analyzed various sizes of polyethylene...
