the prevalence of neutralising antibodies to chimpanzee adenovirus type 6 and type 7 in healthy adult volunteers, patients with chronic hepatitis b and patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma in china.the presence of neutralising antibodies (nabs) against adenovirus in the population is a major hurdle preventing the effective use of replication-defective adenoviruses (ads) as candidates for gene therapy and vaccine vectors for many diseases. only a few studies have described the epidemiology of pre-existing immunity to chimpanzee ads in china. to assess the prevalence of nabs to chimpanzee adenovirus serotypes 6 and 7 (adc6 and adc7), we enrolled 998 healthy participants from five regions in ...201424057756
microrna regulation of oncolytic adenovirus 6 for selective treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer.almost all patients with advanced prostate cancer progress to castration-resistant stage with limited treatment options. oncolytic adenoviruses have been actively pursued as potential agents for cancer treatment. virtually all clinical trials on oncolytic adenovirus are based on serotype 5. however, viral replication in hepatocytes induces severe liver toxicity and limits its systemic administration for metastatic disease. moreover, rapid clearance of viral particles injected intravenously furth ...201222914437
