Efficient amplification of chimeric adenovirus 5/40S vectors carrying the short fiber protein of Ad40 in suspension cell cultures.

The human adenovirus 40 (Ad40) is a promising tool for gene therapy of intestinal diseases. Since the production of Ad40 in vitro is extremely inefficient, chimeric Adenovirus 5/40S vectors carrying the Ad40 short fiber on the Ad5 capsid have been developed. However, Ad5/40S productivity is low. We...
