• Recombinant DNA, adenovirus, and MVA vectors expressing HPV16 L1 were tested for immunogenicity.
• Prime-boost immunization with homologous vaccines did not induce sustained HPV16 L1-specific cellular immune response.
• Prime-boost immunization with heterologous vaccines elicited robust and long-lasting HPV16 L1-specific CD8+ T cell immunity.
• Immunization strategy of DNA + DNA + Ad + MVA has excellent antitumor activity in vivo.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with various human diseases, including cancer, and developing vaccines is a cost-efficient strategy to prevent HPV-related disease. The major capsid protein L1, which an increasing number of studies have confirmed is typically expressed early in infection, is a promising antigen for such a vaccine, although the E6 and E7 proteins have been characterized more extensively. Thus, the L1 gene from HPV16 was inserted into a recombinant vector, AdHu5, and MVA viral vectors, and administered by prime-boost immunization. Virus-like particles were used as control antigens. Our results indicate that prime-boost immunization with heterologous vaccines induced robust and sustained cellular and humoral response specific to HPV16 L1. In particular, sera obtained from mice immunized with DNA + DNA + Ad + MVA had excellent antitumor activity in vivo. However, the data also confirm that virus-like particles can only elicit low levels cellular immunity and not be long-lasting, and are therefore unsuitable for treatment of existing HPV infections.
