Genetic vaccine for tuberculosis (pVAXhsp65) primes neonate mice for a strong immune response at the adult stage
(2007-11-29)
Background: Vaccination of neonates is generally difficult due to the immaturity of the immune system and consequent higher susceptibility to tolerance induction. Genetic immunization has been described as an alternative ...
Genetic diversity of VAR2CSA ID1-DBL2Xb in worldwide Plasmodium falciparum populations: Impact on vaccine design for placental malaria
(Elsevier, 2014)
In placental malaria (PM), sequestration of infected erythrocytes in the placenta is mediated by an interaction between VAR2CSA, a Plasmodium falciparum protein expressed on erythrocytes, and chondroitin sulfate A (CSA) ...
A short hairpin RNA-based adjuvant targeting NF-kappa B repressor I kappa B alpha promotes migration of dermal dendritic cells to draining lymph nodes and antitumor CTL responses induced by DNA vaccination
(Elsevier, 2017)
DNA vaccination is an attractive approach to elicit tumor-specific cytotoxic CD8(+) T lymphocytes (CTL), which can mediate protective immunity against tumors. To initiate CTL responses, antigen-encoding plasmids employed ...
Gene-deleted live-attenuated Trypanosoma cruzi parasites as vaccines to protect against Chagas disease
(Expert Reviews, 2014-12)
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. This illness is now becoming global, mainly due to congenital transmission, and so far, there are no prophylactic or ...
Protein Antigens Increase the Protective Efficacy of a Capsule-Based Vaccine against Staphylococcus aureus in a Rat Model of Osteomyelitis
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014-01)
Staphylococcus aureus is an invasive bacterial pathogen, and antibiotic resistance has impeded adequate control of infections caused by this microbe. Moreover, efforts to prevent human infections with single-component S. ...

(2014)
Vaccinia Virus (VACV) was widely used in smallpox vaccines in Brazil during the world vaccination campaign of Word Health Organization. After ends of this campaign in Brazil in 1980, zoonotic Vaccinia outbreaks have been ...
Evolutionary dynamics of the immunodominant repeats of the Plasmodium vivax malaria-vaccine candidate circumsporozoite protein (CSP)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
The circumsporozoite protein (CSP) of Plasmodium vivax, a major target for malaria vaccine development, has immunodominant B-cell epitopes mapped to central nonapeptide repeat arrays. To determine whether rearrangements ...
