Sequence homology between avian and human adenoviruses [PDF]
Studies of hybridization between fowl adenovirus type 1 (chicken embryo lethal orphan virus) DNA and human adenovirus type 2 DNA revealed two short but distinct regions which cross-hybridized under stringent conditions. One of the homologous regions was located between map positions 18.1 and 19.3 and did not correspond to any gene recognized so far ...

Oncolytic adenoviruses are being tested as potential therapies for human malignant tumors, including gliomas. Here we report for the first time that a mutation in the E1A gene results in low levels of ElA protein, conditioning the replication of mutant ...

Development of replication-deficient adenovirus malaria vaccines
Introduction: Malaria remains a major threat to endemic populations and travelers, including military personnel to these areas. A malaria vaccine is feasible, as radiation attenuated sporozoites induce nearly 100% efficacy.

The Oncogenicity of Human Adenoviruses in Hamsters
In 1962 we reported that human adenovirus type 12 induces undifferentiated sarcomas at the site of injection into newborn hamsters in high incidence and after a very short latent period (1,2). Extensive attempts to recover virus from such tumors have been negative in this and several other laboratories (3,4), although Connor et al.

Predicting the Next Eye Pathogen: Analysis of a Novel Adenovirus
For DNA viruses, genetic recombination, addition, and deletion represent important evolutionary mechanisms. Since these genetic alterations can lead to new, possibly severe pathogens, we applied a systems biology approach to study the pathogenicity of a ...

Double suicide genes selectively kill human umbilical vein endothelial cells
Background To construct a recombinant adenovirus containing CDglyTK double suicide genes and evaluate the killing effect of the double suicide genes driven by kinase domain insert containing receptor (KDR) promoter on human umbilical vein endothelial ...

In vitro and in vivo tropism and biodistribution of recombinant simian adenovirus type 25
Introduction. Recombinant adenoviruses are widely used in the development of vaccines for a variety of infectious diseases. Despite numerous clinical studies, only a few types of human (types 5 and 26) and simian (isolate Y25) adenoviruses are currently ...

Comparative Effect of Oncolytic Adenoviruses with E1 A or E113-55 kDa Deletions in Malignant Gliomas
Replication-competent oncolytic adenoviruses hold considerable promise for treating malignant gliomas. The toxicity of the clinically tested Ell B-55 kDa mutant virus is negligible; however, its full clinical potential is still being evaluated.

Latent Species C Adenoviruses in Human Tonsil Tissues [PDF]
ABSTRACT Although species C human adenoviruses establish persistent infections, the molecular details of this lifestyle remain poorly understood. We previously reported that adenovirus DNA is found in human mucosal T lymphocytes in a noninfectious form (C. T. Garnett, D. Erdman, W. Xu, and L. R. Gooding, J. Virol.

Oncolytic adenoviruses as a therapeutic approach for osteosarcoma: A new hope
Osteosarcoma is the most common bone cancer among those with non-hematological origin and affects mainly pediatric patients. In the last 50 years, refinements in surgical procedures, as well as the introduction of aggressive neoadjuvant and adjuvant ...
