    • Disclosed and claimed are methods of non-invasive genetic immunization in an animal and/or methods of inducing a systemic immune or therapeutic response in an animal, products therefrom and uses for the methods and products therefrom. The methods can include contacting skin of the animal with a vector in an amount effective to induce the systemic immune or therapeutic response in the animal. The vector can include and express an exogenous nucleic acid molecule encoding an epitope or gene product of interest. The systemic immune response can be to or from the epitope or gene product. The nucleic acid molecule can encode an epitope of interest and/or an antigen of interest and/or a nucleic acid molecule that stimulates and/or modulates an immunological response and/or stimulates and/or modulates expression, e.g., transcription and/or translation, such as transcription and/or translation of an endogenous and/or exogenous nucleic acid molecule; e.g., one or more of influenza hemagglutinin, influenza nuclear protein, influenza M2, tetanus toxin C-fragment, anthrax protective antigen, anthrax lethal factor, rabies glycoprotein, HBV surface antigen, HIV gp 120, HIV gp 160, human carcinoembryonic antigen, malaria CSP, malaria SSP, malaria MSP, malaria pfg, and mycobacterium tuberculosis HSP; and/or a therapeutic, an immunomodulatory gene, such as co-stimulatory gene and/or a cytokine gene. The immune response can be induced by the vector expressing the nucleic acid molecule in the animal's cells. The animal's cells can be epidermal cells. The immune response can be against a pathogen or a neoplasm. A prophylactic vaccine or a therapeutic vaccine or an immunological composition can include the vector. The animal can be a vertebrate, e.g., a mammal, such as human, a cow, a horse, a dog, a cat, a goat, a sheep or a pig; or fowl such as turkey, chicken or duck. The vector can be one or more of a viral vector, including viral coat, e.g., with some or all viral genes deleted therefrom, bacterial, protozoan, transposon, retrotransposon, and DNA vector, e.g., a recombinant vector; for instance, an adenovirus, such as an adenovirus defective in its E1 and/or E3 and/or E4 region(s). The method can encompass applying a delivery device including the vector to the skin of the animal, as well as such a method further including disposing the vector in and/or on the delivery device. The vector can have all viral genes deleted therefrom. The vector can induce a therapeutic and/or an anti-tumor effect in the animal, e.g., by expressing an oncogene, a tumor-suppressor gene, or a tumor-associated gene. Immunological products generated by the expression, e.g., antibodies, cells from the methods, and the expression products, are likewise useful in in vitro and ex vivo applications, and such immunological and expression products and cells and applications are disclosed and claimed. Methods for expressing a gene product in vivo and products therefor and therefrom including mucosal and/or intranasal administration of an adenovirus, advantageously an E1 and/or E3 and/or E4 defective or deleted adenovirus, such as a human adenovirus or canine adenovirus, are also disclosed and claimed.

    • One major problem with adenovirus gene therapy has been the T-cell mediated immune response elicited by inoculation of adenovirus, which leads to rapid clearance of the virus and loss of transgene expression. In the instant invention, the immune response to a virus is prevented by pre-treatment with adenovirus, adenoassociated virus or herpes virus infected antigen-presenting cell (APC) expressing Fas ligand with induced T-cell tolerance. Administration of AdCMVLacZ after tolerance resulted in prolonged expression of LacZ in tolerized animals compared to control treated animals. In control, but not tolerized animals, there was proliferation of CD3+ T-cell in the spleen in response to AdCMVLacZ treatment. Tolerance induction is also indicated by decreased production of interferon-&ggr; and IL-2 by peripheral T-cells isolated from treated animals after stimulation with the adenovirus infected APCs. T-cell tolerance is specific for the virus as the T-cell responses to an irrelative virus, mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) remained unimpaired. The instant invention utilizes virus specific T-cell tolerance, which is induced by APCs that co-express Fas ligand and virus antigens. The instant invention involves novel vectors and methods to induce tolerance to a viral vector gene therapy and prolong expression of a transgene in a viral host.
    • 腺病毒基因治疗的一个主要问题是通过接种腺病毒引起的T细胞介导的免疫应答,这导致病毒的快速清除和转基因表达的丧失。 在本发明中,通过用表达具有诱导的T细胞耐受性的Fas配体的腺病毒,腺相关病毒或疱疹病毒感染的抗原呈递细胞(APC)预处理来防止对病毒的免疫应答。 ADMVLacZ的耐受性导致与对照处理的动物相比,耐受性动物中LacZ的表达延长。 在控制但不能耐受的动物中,响应于AdCMVLacZ处理,脾脏中CD3 + T细胞增殖。 通过用腺病毒感染的APC刺激后从处理的动物分离的外周T细胞的干扰素-γ和IL-2的产生减少也表示耐受性诱导。 T细胞耐受性对于病毒是特异性的,因为T细胞对不相关病毒的反应,小鼠巨细胞病毒(MCMV)保持不受损害。 本发明利用由共表达Fas配体和病毒抗原的APC诱导的病毒特异性T细胞耐受性。 本发明涉及诱导对病毒载体基因治疗的耐受并延长病毒宿主中转基因表达的新型载体和方法。
