MVA Vectors Expressing Conserved Influenza Proteins Protect Mice against Lethal Challenge with H5N1, H9N2 and H7N1 Viruses
BACKGROUND The availability of a universal influenza vaccine able to induce broad cross-reactive immune responses against diverse influenza viruses would provide an alternative to currently available strain-specific vaccines. We evaluated the ability of vectors based on modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) expressing conserved influenza proteins to protect mice against lethal challenge with mul...
متن کاملNasal Acai Polysaccharides Potentiate Innate Immunity to Protect against Pulmonary Francisella tularensis and Burkholderia pseudomallei Infections
Pulmonary Francisella tularensis and Burkholderia pseudomallei infections are highly lethal in untreated patients, and current antibiotic regimens are not always effective. Activating the innate immune system provides an alternative means of treating infection and can also complement antibiotic therapies. Several natural agonists were screened for their ability to enhance host resistance to inf...
متن کاملDoes preventing rotavirus infections through vaccination also protect against naturally occurring intussusception over time?
Intestinal intussusception is an uncommon event (incidence approximately 30 per 100 000 per year in US infants) in which one part of the intestine folds into another. The condition is usually considered idiopathic, but numerous case reports link intussusception to enteric pathogens, notably adenovirus. Several case reports have linked wild-type rotavirus to intussusception, although evidence fo...
متن کاملClotting factors and eicosanoids protect against nematode infections.
We show that hemolymph clotting protects Drosophila melanogaster against infections with an entomopathogenic nematode and its symbiotic bacterium. We also provide biochemical and genetic evidence for an involvement of eicosanoids in the same infection model. Taken together, our results confirm the conserved nature of the immune function of clot formation.
متن کاملHigh cholesterol may protect against infections and atherosclerosis.
Many researchers have suggested that the blood lipids play a key role in the immune defence system. There is also a growing understanding that an inflammatory response of the arterial intima to injury is a crucial step in the genesis of atherosclerosis. and that infections may be one type of such injury. These two concepts are difficult to harmonize with the low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) recept...
