Cell cycle regulatory proteins are important candidates for therapeutic tumour suppressors. Adenovirus vectors were constructed to overexpress cyclin kinase inhibitors p16INK4A, p18INK4C, p19INK4D, p21WAF1/CIP1 and p27KIP1 under the control of the murine cytomegalovirus immediate early gene promoter. These vectors directed the efficient expression of each of the cyclin kinase inhibitors and induced growth arrest, inhibited DNA synthesis, and prevented phosphorylation of the ...

Requirement for Both Shc and Phosphatidylinositol 3′ Kinase Signaling Pathways in Polyomavirus Middle T-Mediated Mammary Tumorigenesis
[ PUBLICATION ]
Transgenic mice expressing the polyomavirus (PyV) middle T antigen (MT) develop multifocal mammary tumors which frequently metastasize to the lung. The potent transforming activity of PyV MT is correlated with its capacity to activate and associate with a number of signaling molecules, including the Src family tyrosine kinases, the 85-kDa Src homology 2 subunit of the phosphatidylinositol 3' (PI-3') kinase, and the Shc adapter protein. To uncover the role of these signaling proteins in ...

Therapeutic effects of interleukin-4 gene transfer in experimental inflammatory bowel disease.
[ PUBLICATION ]
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by altered immunoregulation and augmented intestinal synthesis of nitric oxide. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of exogenous IL-4, introduced by a recombinant human type 5 adenovirus (Ad5) vector, on the tissue injury associated with an experimental model of colonic immune activation and inflammation. Colitis was induced in rats by the intrarectal administration of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNB) dissolved in ...

Development of Cell Lines Capable of Complementing E1, E4, and Protein IX Defective Adenovirus Type 5 Mutants
[ PUBLICATION ]
The cloning capacity of currently available E1- and E3-deleted adenovirus (Ad) vectors does not exceed 8 kb. To increase capacity and improve vector safety further, we have explored the possibility that Early Region 4 (E4) and the gene encoding protein IX (pIX) might also be deleted. To generate cell lines expressing sufficient levels of E4 and pIX proteins in trans in addition to E1-encoded proteins to complement mutations in these genes, we transformed 293 cells with constructs ...

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha is up-regulated in a variety of different human immune-inflammatory and fibrotic pulmonary pathologies. However, its precise role in these pathologies and, in particular, the mechanism(s) by which it may induce fibrogenesis are not yet elucidated. Using a replication-deficient adenovirus to transfer the cDNA of tumor necrosis factor-alpha to rat lung, we have been able to study the effect of transient but prolonged (7 to 10 days) overexpression of tumor ...

Comparison of the human versus murine cytomegalovirus immediate early gene promoters for transgene expression by adenoviral vectors.
[ PUBLICATION ]
We have developed a number of replication defective adenoviral (Ad) vectors which express transgenes under the control of the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) immediate early (IE) gene promoter. The orientation of the expression cassette replacing E1 in the vector backbone had a significant effect on the level of transgene expression, with vectors containing expression cassettes directed towards the right end of the Ad genome expressing 7-fold higher levels of beta-galactosidase (beta-gal) ...

A helper-dependent adenovirus vector system: Removal of helper virus by Cre-mediated excision of the viral packaging signal
[ PUBLICATION ]
Adenoviruses are attractive vectors for the delivery of foreign genes into mammalian cells for gene therapy. However, current vectors retain many viral genes that, when expressed at low levels, contribute to the induction of a host immune response against transduced cells. We have developed a helper-dependent packaging system for production of vectors that have large regions of the genome deleted. Helper viruses were constructed with packaging signals flanked by loxP sites so that in 293 ...

The adenovirus 5 early region 1A (ElA: 0–4.5 map units) proteins synthesized early after infection of KB cells without pretreatment of the cells with metabolic inhibitors have been studied. The E1A mRNA species of 1.1 and 0.9 kilobases (Kb) are processed from alternative 5′ splice sites to a common 3′ splice site of the same initial transcript and code for proteins of 289 and 243 amino acids in length that share common amino and carboxy terminal peptides but differ in that 46 residues of ...

The infection of epithelia] swine testicle and intestinal porcine epithelial (IPEC-1) cell lines by adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) has been studied in vitro by using an Ad5-luciferase recombinant containing the firefly luciferase gene as a reporter. Porcine cell lines supported Ad5 replication, showing virus titers, kinetics of virus production, and luciferase expression levels similar to those obtained in human 293 cells, which constitutively express the 5'-end 11% of the Ad5 genome. The ...

We have studied the ability of adenoviral (Ad) vectors expressing the cytokines IL-2 or IL-12 to mediate regression of established tumors in a mouse model of mammary adenocarcinoma. Previous results indicated that intratumoral injection of vectors expressing IL-2 (AdCAIL-2) or IL-12 (AdmIL-12.1) induced complete tumor regression in approximately 30–40% of treated animals. In the current studies, we investigated the mechanism of tumor killing in responding animals and the efficacy of ...

DNA of human adenoviruses 2 and 5 was cleaved by the restriction endonucleases HsuI, BamHI, HpaI, and SmaI. The resulting fragments were separated and tested for their ability to transform primary baby rat kidney (BRK) cells, using the calcium technique. Fragments with transforming activity were obtained with endo's R·EcoRI (fragments A), BamHI (fragments B of Ad2 and A of Ad5 DNA), and HsuI (fragments G). The transforming fragments all represented the left terminal fragments of the ...

Interleukin 12 and B7-1 costimulatory molecule expressed by an adenovirus vector act synergistically to facilitate tumor regression
[ PUBLICATION ]
Stimulation of antitumor immune mechanisms is the primary goal of cancer immunotherapy, and accumulating evidence suggests that effective alteration of the host-tumor relationship involves immunomodulating cytokines and also the presence of costimulatory molecules. To examine the antitumor effect of direct in vivo gene transfer of murine interleukin 12 (IL-12) and B7-1 into tumors, we developed an adenovirus (Ad) vector, AdIL12-B7-1, that encodes the two IL-12 subunits in early region 1 ...
