Abstract
Adenovirus has enormous potential as a gene-therapy vector, but preexisting immunity limits its widespread application. What is responsible for this immune block is unclear because antibodies potently inhibit transgene expression without impeding gene transfer into target cells. Here we show that antibody prevention of adenoviral gene delivery in vivo is mediated by the cytosolic antibody receptor TRIM21. Genetic KO of TRIM21 or a single-antibody point mutation is sufficient to restore transgene expression to near-naïve immune levels. TRIM21 is also responsible for blocking cytotoxic T cell induction by vaccine vectors, preventing a protective response against subsequent influenza infection and an engrafted tumor. Furthermore, adenoviral preexisting immunity can lead to an augmented immune response upon i.v. administration of the vector. Transcriptomic analysis of vector-transduced tissue reveals that TRIM21 is responsible for the specific up-regulation of hundreds of immune genes, the majority of which are components of the intrinsic or innate response. Together, these data define a major mechanism underlying the preimmune block to adenovirus gene therapy and demonstrate that TRIM21 efficiently blocks gene delivery in vivo while simultaneously inducing a rapid program of immune transcription.
