“…They are then translated into functional proteins, processed into peptides and presented by major histocompatibility (MHC) molecules to immune T cells. 2 Direct DNA transfer has been successfully used for in vitro induction of both humoral and cellular immune responses to several antigens, including viruses such as influenza, hepatitis B, or HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), parasites, or tumor antigens. [3][4][5][6][7][8] Additionally, systemic effects were observed after transfer of cytokine genes.…”

“…33,47,48 Therefore, increasing the inherent immunogenicity of plasmid DNA by complexing to cationic liposomes would be expected to increase potentially the overall effectiveness of a DNA vaccine. Therefore, we reasoned that LDC might serve as a more efficient means of delivering DNA vaccines for cancer.…”

“…29,31 However, in human clinical trials, plasmid DNA vaccines have generally failed to elicit significant antitumor activity in patients with established tumors. 8,32,33 Thus, despite the theoretical advantages of plasmid DNA vaccination, there are still significant unresolved issues in the application of plasmid DNA vaccination for therapeutic induction of antitumor immunity.…”

“…One novel and powerful strategy for anti-tumor vaccination developed in our laboratory is the epicutaneous application of an adenovirus vector encoding tumor-associated antigens such as the human carcinoembryonic antigen (CPA) [3]. This technique utilizes DNA immunization which is known to induce both antigen-specific cellular as well as humoral immune responses [4,5]. The generation of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity or antibody-mediated cytotoxicity against tumor cells can inhibit tumor growth and lead to tumorrejection [1].…”
