The potential of the E5 protein as a tumor vaccine candidate has not been explored yet. In this study, we evaluate the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E5 protein delivered by an adenovirus vector as a tumor vaccine for cervical lesions. The results demonstrate that a single intramuscular injection of a recombinant adenovirus carrying the HPV-16 E5 gene into syngeneic animals can reduce the growth of tumors which contain E5 gene expression. Moreover, the E5 vaccine-induced tumor protection occurs through CD8 T cells but not through CD4 T cells in in vitro assays. In addition, our studies using knockout mice with distinct T-cell deficiencies confirm that cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-induced tumor protection is CD8 dependent but CD4 independent. Hence, HPV-16 E5 can be regarded as a tumor rejection antigen.
