Disease relevance of Canarypox virus

METHODS: The ability of several vehicles (catgut spacer, polyglycolic acid, chromic catgut, and gelatin sponge matrix) to deliver the canarypox virus ALVAC to the cells of the murine prostate cancer cell line RM-1 was studied in vitro and in vivo [1].
Immunization of colorectal carcinoma patients with a recombinant canarypox virus expressing the tumor antigen Ep-CAM/KSA (ALVAC-KSA) and granulocyte macrophage colony- stimulating factor induced a tumor-specific cellular immune response [2].
We have tested candidate CDV vaccines incorporating the fusion (F) and hemagglutinin (HA) proteins in the highly attenuated NYVAC strain of vaccinia virus and in the ALVAC strain of canarypox virus, which does not productively replicate in mammalian hosts [3].
Immunization with type 5 adenovirus recombinant for a tumor antigen in combination with recombinant canarypox virus (ALVAC) cytokine gene delivery induces destruction of established prostate tumors [4].
Nonreplicating viral vectors as potential vaccines: recombinant canarypox virus expressing measles virus fusion (F) and hemagglutinin (HA) glycoproteins [5].

High impact information on Canarypox virus

Immunisation with canarypox virus expressing rabies glycoprotein [6].
Several canarypox virus recombinants expressing human or murine p53 in wild-type or mutant form were constructed [7].
HLA-A*0201-restricted CTL against human gp100 were isolated from HLA-A*0201/K(b) (A2/K(b))-transgenic mice immunized with recombinant canarypox virus (ALVAC-gp100) [8].
The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and activity of the intratumoral administration of the immune costimulatory molecule, B7.1, encoded by a vector derived from the canarypox virus, ALVAC (ALVAC-B7.1), alone and with the intratumoral injection of ALVAC encoding the immune-stimulatory cytokine, interleukin 12 (ALVAC-IL-12) [9].
Virologic and serologic follow-up showed that the controls and the two chimpanzees immunized with the live recombinant canarypox virus became infected, whereas the other animals that were immunized with gp160 and V3-MN peptides were protected from infection [10].

Chemical compound and disease context of Canarypox virus

Identification of the canarypox virus thymidine kinase gene and insertion of foreign genes [11].
Following immunization with recombinant canarypox virus expressing gp160MN or with recombinant gp160MN/LAI, this antibody response was shown to be directed against the NH2-terminal region of the V3 loop [12].

Anatomical context of Canarypox virus

The specific anti-pp65 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response restricted by HLA-G in triple transgenic mice (HLA-G, human beta2m, human CD8alpha) was then investigated by injection of dendritic cells loaded with synthetic pp65-derived peptides or by infection with canarypox virus expressing pp65 [13].

Gene context of Canarypox virus

In contrast, established RM11psa tumors ranging in size from 500 to 1,000 mm(3) were efficiently eliminated if Ad5-PSA priming was followed 7 days later by intratumoral injection of recombinant canarypox viruses (ALVAC) encoding interleukin-12 (IL-12), IL-2, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha [4].
The development of canarypox virus (CPV) recombinants expressing the hemagglutinin (HA) and fusion (F) glycoproteins of measles virus (MV) is described [5].
Immunization of mice with a recombinant canarypox virus, ALVAC, expressing human wild-type p53 (vCP207) prevented growth of p53-over-expressing tumors [14].
