We recently engineered an oncolytic adenovirus (PPE3-SEA) that expresses the superantigen, Staphylococcus enterotoxin A (SEA), and that has enhanced tumor specificity because the telomerase reverse transcriptase and hypoxia-inducible factor promoters regulate expression of E1A and E1B genes, respectively. Here, we evaluated the PPE3-SEA adenovirus anti-tumor activity against MB49 mouse bladder cancer cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. PPE3-SEA infection of murine MB49 cells in vitro induced cytopathic effects, and significant expression of SEA mRNA and protein, as measured by RT-PCR and western blot, respectively. Subcutaneous MB29 bladder tumors were established in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. After 10?days, tumors were injected with either oncolytic virus or PBS. Tumor dimensions were measured on days?1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 post-treatment and tumor volumes were calculated. One of eight PPE3-SEA-treated mice had no tumor by day?9. PPE3-SEA?treated group had significantly lower mean tumor volume beginning on day?5 post-treatment (p?<?0.01), more fibrous tissue in the tumor, and increased presence of infiltrating CD3+ T cells than those of the control group. Gross appearance and histologic sections from the livers and kidneys of the PPE3-SEA-treated group were similar to those of the control group. In conclusion, oncolytic adenoviruses can provide a novel delivery vehicle for SEA to tumor sites, and PPE3-SEA warrants further study as a potential anti-tumor agent for bladder cancer.
