Novel Concepts for HIV Vaccine Vector Design
The unprecedented challenges of developing effective vaccines against intracellular pathogens such as HIV, malaria, and tuberculosis have resulted in more rational approaches to vaccine development. Apart from the recent advances in the design and selection of improved epitopes and adjuvants, there are also ongoing efforts to optimize delivery platforms. Viral vectors are the best-characterized...
متن کاملDyNAVacS: an integrative tool for optimized DNA vaccine design
DNA vaccines have slowly emerged as keystones in preventive immunology due to their versatility in inducing both cell-mediated as well as humoral immune responses. The design of an efficient DNA vaccine, involves choice of a suitable expression vector, ensuring optimal expression by codon optimization, engineering CpG motifs for enhancing immune responses and providing additional sequence signa...

R. Pantophlet (ed.), HIV Glycans in Infection and Immunity, DOI 10.1007/978-1-4614-8872-9_6, © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014 Abstract HIV has evolved a number of strong defense mechanisms, including extensive glycosylation of its surface envelope glycoprotein, to evade host immune responses. Nevertheless, the discovery of a series of glycan-dependent broadly neutralizing antibod...
متن کاملPolymer-basednanoadjuvants for hepatitis C vaccine: The perspectives of immunologists
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an infection that affects the liver tissues in humans, leading to the development of effective prophylactic and therapeutic HCV vaccines to prevent a global epidemic. Scientists consider it challenging to produce a therapeutic vaccine for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma as opposed to a preventative vaccine. However, several drawbacks are involved with a ...
متن کاملDesign and tests of an HIV vaccine.
It is likely that a successful vaccine against HIV will need to stimulate the innate immune system, generate high levels of neutralising antibody, strong cellular immune responses, and mucosal immunity. Early efforts to develop HIV vaccines attempted to use the virus glycoprotein, gp120, to induce neutralising antibody, but did not take into account the trimeric structure of the native glycopro...
