production of recombinant adenovirus containing human interlukin-4 gene
Authors
abstract
objective(s) recombinant adenoviruses are currently used for a variety of purposes, including in vitro gene transfer, in vivo vaccination, and gene therapy. ability to infect many cell types, high efficiency in gene transfer, entering both dividing and non dividing cells, and growing to high titers make this virus a good choice for using in various experiments. in the present experiment, a recombinant adenovirus containing human il-4 coding sequence was made. il-4 has several characteristics that made it a good choice for using in cancer gene therapy, controlling inflammatory diseases, and studies on autoimmune diseases. materials and methods in brief, il-4 coding sequence was amplified by pcr and cloned in pad-track-cmv. then, by means of homologous recombination between recombinant pad-track-cmv and adeasy-' plasmid in bacteria, recombinant adenovirus complete genome was made and il-4 containing shuttle vector was incorporated into the viral backbone. after linearization, for virus packaging, viral genome was transfected into hek-293 cell line. viral production was conveniently followed with the aid of green fluorescent protein. results recombinant adenovirus produced here, was capable to infecting cell lines and express interlukin-4 in cell. conclusion this system can be used as a powerful, easy, and cost benefit tool in various studies on cancer gene therapy and also studies on immunogenetics.

Abstract Background and objective: Hepcidin is a cystein-rich antimicrobial peptide, which is secreted by the liver. It fights against wide spectrum of bacteria, viruses and fungi and it is a major regulator of iron homeostasis. Today, scientists have made many efforts on the production of hepcidin. Baculovirus expression system is one of the best eukaryotic expression systems for production of...

Recombinant Adenoviruses (rAd) are widely used as gene delivery vectors in gene therapy and vaccination (Hall et al., 2010, Liu, 2010). These replication incompetent vectors have established safety in humans and possess a number of advantages, such as that high viral titres can be produced efficiently. Several different human rAd types are being intensively investigated in clinical trials for t...

ABSTRACT Introduction: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a cancer that starts in lymphocytes. The main treatment for NHL is chemotherapy and radiation. Today immunotherapy is a promising therapeutic approach in the treatment of a variety cancers which is high specific unlike previous methods. Antibodies do not penetrate effectively into tumore tissues because of their large size. Whe...

The susceptibility of adenovirus to the inhibitory effect of human interferons in vitro was investigated. We tested recombinant human interferons-c~2, -/~1 and -7 against adenovirus serotypes 1 and 5 (group C), 3 and 7a (group B), and a wild strain isolated from an acutely ill child who later died. Pretreatment of WISH cells with interferon-? for 24 h induced a dose-dependent inhibition of mult...
