Vectors based on cytomegalovirus (CMV) represent a novel vaccine platform that maintains high frequencies of non-exhausted effector memory T cells in both CMV sero-positive and sero-negative individuals. In non-human primate models, CMV vectored vaccines provide unprecedented protection against simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). Moreover, CMV vectors can be genetically altered to program highly diverse CD8+ T cell responses that differ in their epitope targeting including conventional, MHC-I restricted CD8+ T cells as well as unconventional CD8+ T cells restricted by MHC class II or non-polymorphic MHC-E. By modifying cytomegaloviral determinants that control unconventional T cell priming it is possible to uniquely tailor the CD8+ T cell response for each individual disease target in order to maximize prophylactic or therapeutic protection.
基于巨细胞病毒(CMV)的载体代表了一种新型疫苗平台,可在 CMV 血清阳性和血清阴性个体中维持高频率的非耗竭效应记忆 T 细胞。在非人类灵长类动物模型中,CMV 载体疫苗可提供针对猴免疫缺陷病毒(SIV)的前所未有的保护。此外,CMV 载体可以进行遗传修饰,以编程高度多样化的 CD8+T 细胞反应,这些反应在其表位靶向方面存在差异,包括传统的、受 MHC-I 限制的 CD8+T 细胞以及受 MHC 类 II 或非多态性 MHC-E 限制的非常规 CD8+T 细胞。通过修饰控制非常规 T 细胞启动的巨细胞病毒决定簇,可以针对每个个体疾病靶标独特地定制 CD8+T 细胞反应,以最大程度地提高预防或治疗保护。
