摘要
Adenoviruses typically cause mild illnesses,but severe diseases may occur primarily in immunodeficient individuals,particularly children.Recently,adenoviruses have garnered significant interest as a versatile tool in gene therapy,tumor treatment,and vaccine vector development.Over the past two decades,the advent of recombineering,a method based on homologous recombination,has notably enhanced the utility of adenoviral vectors in therapeutic applications.This review summarizes recent advancements in the use of human adenoviral vectors in medicine and discusses the pivotal role of recombineering in the development of these vectors.Additionally,it highlights the current achievements and potential future impact of therapeutic adenoviral vectors.
