Anti-tumor DNA vaccines based on the expression of human papillomavirus-16 E6/E7 oncoproteins genetically fused with the glycoprotein D from herpes simplex virus-1.

DNA vaccines encoding the human papillomavirus type-16 (HPV-16) E6 and E7 oncoproteins genetically fused to the human herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) gD protein were tested in mice for induction of T cell-mediated immunity and protection against tumor cell challenge. Hybrid genes, generated afte...
