HER3 targeting of adenovirus by fiber modification increases infection of breast cancer cells in vitro, but not following intratumoral injection in mice

Abstract: Despite the tremendous potential of adenovirus (Ad) as a delivery vector for cancer gene therapy, its use in clinical settings has been limited, mainly as a result of the limited infectivity in many tumors and the wide tissue tropism associated with Ad. To modify the tropism of the virus, we have inserted the epidermal growth factor-like domain of the human heregulin-a (HRG) into the HI loop of Ad5 fiber. This insertion had no adverse effect on fiber trimerization nor did it affect incorporation of the modifie… Show more

“…Nevertheless, short heterologous peptides and specificity domains that recognize tumour-associated antigens have been inserted into the HI loop and the C terminus of the receptor-binding trimeric fibre protein, which is located at the vertices of the capsid 53,68–71 . The HI loop, in particular, is flexible and the inserted short peptides have minimal negative effects on virus fitness, even in combination with mutations that detarget viruses from natural adenovirus receptors 68 .…”

“…The fiber-modified Ad virions showed enhanced infection of cells expressing the cognate receptors HER3/ErbB3 and HER4/ ErbB4, so the HER3-expressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells could be transduced by the HRG-modified virus, but not by wild type virus. 132 Other studies showed that the fiber-modified Ads had specific tropism to different cancer cells, which may provide a new strategy for Ad based cancer therapy. 133,134 Capsid-incorporation of foreign antigen into ad virions as vaccine candidate…”

“…Some studies reported lack of peptide mediated transduction after i.t. injection in the context of CAR-binding[41] or CAR binding-ablated HAdV-5 [37].Other studies reported increased transduction (3-fold) or selective oncolytic activity after i.t. injection of Ads with genetically inserted peptide in the HAdV-5 fiber binding or not binding CAR, respectively [42], [43].…”
