Healing after death: antitumor immunity induced by oncolytic adenoviral therapy

摘要

We recently evaluated the capacity of Delta-24-RGD oncolytic adenovirus to trigger an antitumor immune response in a syngeneic mouse glioma model. This virotherapy elicited immunity against both tumor-associated antigens and viral antigens. An immunogenic cell death accompanied by pathogen-or damage-associated patterns (PAMPs and DAMPs) induced by the virus may be responsible for the adenoviral-mediated antitumor effect.
