Human CMV infects between 50-85% of healthy individuals and can cause live-threatening infections in immunocompromised patients. Therefore, peptide vaccination is being developed as a promising immunotherapeutic approach for treatment of patients at risk of CMV disease. The enzymatically inactive toxoid of Bordetella adenylate cyclase (CyaA-AC(-)) was shown to be an efficient tool for delivery of peptide epitopes and stimulation of Ag-specific T-cell immune responses. We investigated here the capacity of two CyaA-AC(-) constructs to deliver epitopes derived from the CMV phosphoprotein pp65 for activation of human T cells in vitro. Expansion of gamma-IFN-secreting CMV-specific CD8(+) T cells, as well as increase of total IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production by PBMCs from CMV-seropositive donors were observed after in vitro stimulation with CyaA-AC(-) constructs carrying CMV epitopes, whereas limited activation of immune response occurred with free peptides
