Immunogenicity of novel mumps vaccine candidates generated by genetic modification.
Mumps is a highly contagious human disease, characterized by lateral or bilateral nonsuppurative swelling of the parotid glands and neurological complications that can result in aseptic meningitis or encephalitis. A mumps vaccination program implemented since the 1960s reduced mumps incidence by more than 99% and kept the mumps case numbers as low as hundreds of cases per year in the United Sta...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of peptide-vaccine candidates predicted by molecular dynamics simulations.
We present an in silico, structure-based approach for design and evaluation of conformationally restricted peptide-vaccines. In particular, we designed four cyclic peptides of ten or 11 residues mimicking the crystallographically observed beta-turn conformation of a predicted immunodominant loop of PorA from Neisseria meningitidis. Conformational correctness and stability of the peptide designs...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of BHK-Rabies Vaccine in Cattle
In this study, the immunogenicity of a rabies vaccine that was used in one of the Isfahan cattle farms is reported. This vaccine was produced by replication of the Pasteur virus (PV) strain on BHK-21 monolayer cell culture. The virus suspension was inactivated by ß-propiolactone treatment and the harvested pool showed sterility and safety. Thus, the obtained vaccine was tested on mice and a sat...
متن کاملMumps and mumps vaccine: a global review.
Mumps is an acute infectious disease caused by a paramyxovirus. Although the disease is usually mild, up to 10% of patients can develop aseptic meningitis; a less common but more serious complication is encephalitis, which can result in death or disability. Permanent deafness, orchitis, and pancreatitis are other untoward effects of mumps. Based on data reported to WHO up to April 1998, mumps v...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Immunogenicity Evaluation of PpiC, GelE, and VS87_01105 Proteins of Enterococcus faecalis as Vaccine Candidates
Background: Among the enterococci strains, Enterococcus faecalis is considered as one of the important nosocomial pathogens affecting immunocompromised patients. In this study, the immunogenicity of PpiC, GelE, and VS87_01105 proteins against enterococcal infection was investigated in a mice model. Methods: The genes encoding these proteins were cloned into pET21a expression vector, and the rec...
