Abstract:
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a contagious cause of anogenital and oropharyngeal cancers developing from persistently infected and subsequently transformed basal keratinocytes of mucosal epithelium. DNA-based immunotherapy offers great potential for the treatment of persisting HPV infections and associated cancers. Preclinical testing of therapeutic DNA-based HPV-targeted immunotherapy requires robust animal models which mimic HPV-associated cancer disease in humans. Here we describe a detailed protocol of intradermal delivery of a therapeutic DNA vaccine and a grafting model of neoantigen expressing skin to evaluate vaccine efficacy against HPV16 mediated hyperproliferative epithelium in mice.
