HPV infection
3. Introduction
Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is a sexually transmitted virus. It is usually found in the genital tract and causes various lesions at the mucosae of both men and women. It is considered as a causative factor of cervical cancer even if all women infected by HPV will not develop the disease (Panagiotis et al., 2008). HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the USA. It has been estimated suggest that more than 80% of sexually active women will have acquired genital HPV by age 50 years (Huang, 2008).
4. Microbial Pathogenesis
HPV infection is limited to the basal cells of stratified epithelium, the only tissue in which they replicate.The virus can not bind to live tissue; instead it infects epithelial tissues through micro-abrasions or other epithelial trauma that exposes segments of the basement membrane.The infectious process is slow, taking 12–24 h for initiation of transcription. It's believed that involved antibodies play a major neutralizing role while the virions still reside on the basement membrane and cell surfaces (Wiki: HPV).

j. Description
Insertion of a neutralizing epitope (amino acids 17–36) from L2 of HPV16 and HPV31 into VP3 at positions 587 and 453, respectively, permitted assembly into empty AAV particles (AAVLP(HPV16/31L2)) (Nieto et al., 2012).
k. Mouse Response
  • Host Strain: Balb/c and C57BL/6
  • Vaccination Protocol: Immunized C57BL/6 mice either with a low dose (LD) (1E+11 particles equivalent to 0.6 µg of protein) or high dose (HD) (5E+12 particles equivalent to 30 µg) with or without adjuvant (+M) (montanide ISA 51). (Nieto et al., 2012).
  • Persistence: Mice immunized with LD+M or HD+M developed 25 and 50 fold higher HPV16 L2-specific antibodies titers, respectively, than mice immunized with a LD of particles without adjuvant. There was little difference between the mice immunized with LD+M and mice immunized with HD+M. Sera of all mice vaccinated with TrXL2+M had HPV16 L2-specific antibodies. (Nieto et al., 2012).
l. Rabbit Response
  • Vaccination Protocol: Three ZIKA hybrid rabbits were immunized four times with AAVLP(HPV16/31L2) particles (2E+12 capsids equivalent to 13.2 µg) adjuvanted with montanide ISA720. Rabbit sera were administered intraperitoneally to naïve mice. Rabbit sera against AAVLP with an epitope of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (AAVLP TP18) were used to detect the unspecific effect of AAVLP induced antibodies. Vaginal infection of mice is detected three days after challenge as luminescence signal after injection of the challenged mice with luciferin. (Nieto et al., 2012)
  • Persistence: The passive transfer of AAVLP(HPV16/31L2) sera protected mice from vaginal challenge with HPV16 PsV, whereas the AAVLP TP18 control serum failed to protect the mice. (Nieto et al., 2012)

l. Preparation
GARDASIL is a non-infectious recombinant quadrivalent vaccine prepared from the purified virus-like particles (VLPs) of the major capsid (L1) protein of HPV Types 6, 11, 16, and 18. The L1 proteins are produced by separate fermentations in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae and self-assembled into VLPs. The fermentation process involves growth of S. cerevisiae on chemically-defined fermentation media which include vitamins, amino acids, mineral salts, and carbohydrates. The VLPs are released from the yeast cells by cell disruption and purified by a series of chemical and physical methods. The purified VLPs are adsorbed on preformed aluminum-containing adjuvant (Amorphous Aluminum Hydroxyphosphate Sulfate). The quadrivalent HPV VLP vaccine is a sterile liquid suspension that is prepared by combining the adsorbed VLPs of each HPV type and additional amounts of the aluminum-containing adjuvant and the final purification buffer. GARDASIL is a sterile suspension for intramuscular administration (FDA: Gardasil).
m. Immunization Route

q. Description
Indication: Vaccination in females 9 to 26 years of age for prevention of the following diseases caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Types 6, 11, 16, and 18: cervical cancer, and genital warts (condyloma acuminata), and the following precancerous or dysplastic lesions: cervical adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2 and grade 3, vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) grade 2 and grade 3, vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VaIN) grade 2 and grade 3, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 1 (FDA: Gardasil). In June 2006, the US Food and Drug Administration licensed this first vaccine to prevent cervical cancers and other diseases in women. This quadrivalent vaccine protects against HPV-6, HPV-11, HPV-16, and HPV-18, which are responsible for 70% of cervical cancers and 90% of genital warts (Huang, 2008).

  • Host Strain: C57BL/6
  • Vaccination Protocol: Female C57BL/6 mice (8–12 weeks old) were purchased from the Animal Center of Chinese Academy of Medical Science (Beijing, China) and held under specific pathogen-free conditions. Mice were subcutaneously injected either with 200 μg E7p/mIgG. HCCR, 20 μg E7p, 20 μg E7p plus 180 μg mIgG HCCR or 180 μg mIgG HCCR, respectively. All proteins were dissolved in PBS to achieve similar molar levels of E738–61 peptide in all cases. All four immunogens were mixed with an equal volume of Freund's incomplete adjuvant before vaccination. The total injection volume was 200 μl/mouse. All the mice were boosted with the same dose of immunogen solution using the same adjuvant after 3 weeks (Qin et al., 2005).
  • Challenge Protocol: Female C57BL/6 mice (8–12 weeks old) were used for evaluating the protection ability of the chimeric protein against tumor challenge. Four groups (n = 5) of C57BL/6 mice were immunized twice on Day 0 and 21 with 200 μg E7p/mIgG HCCR, 20 μg E7p, 20 μg E7p plus 180 μg mIgG HCCR or 180 μg mIgG HCCR, respectively. After a week, all mice in the four groups were challenged with 5 × 10^4 TC-1 tumor cells subcutaneously. Following the TC-1 cells challenge, tumor development in mice was monitored every week until the death of mice (Qin et al., 2005).
  • Efficacy: Researchers combined the HPV16 E7 peptide(38-61) with a murine IgG heavy chain constant region to construct a chimeric protein compound. The chimeric vaccine candidate was able to effectively protect mice against the challenge of HPV16-positive tumor cells, and to eradicate HPV16-expressing tumors in mice (Qin et al., 2005).
