Gene transfer of antisense hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha enhances the therapeutic efficacy of cancer immunotherapy.

abstract：:First-generation adenoviral (Ad) vectors are frequently used vectors for experimental and clinical gene transfer. Earlier it has been shown that parallel overexpression of the cell cycle regulator p21(Waf1/Cip1) (p21) or antiapoptotic bcl-2 from a second vector reduces cytotoxicity and improves transgene expression.
