Clinical signs of the disease in salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) include exophthalmia, general oedema, abdominal distension with ascites, anaemia, and anorexia. The disease-causing factor is a metalloprotease and the monoclonal antibody (mAb-001) against it is therapeutic. MAb-001 does not fix complement but agglutinates ...

Therapeutic Vaccine Strategies against Human Papillomavirus

High-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV) cause over 500,000 cervical, anogenital and oropharyngeal cancer cases per year. The transforming potential of HPVs is mediated by viral oncoproteins. These are essential for the induction and maintenance of the malignant phenotype. Thus, HPV-mediated malignancies pose the unique opportunity in cancer vaccination to target immunologically foreign ep...

Immunological Tolerance: Therapeutic Induction

Immunological tolerance can be defined as an unresponsiveness of T and/or B cells to self antigens. Low responsiveness of T cells and/or B cells to self antigens could be termed partial tolerance. Protection from the development of autoimmune diseases and acceptance of transplanted organs or tissue are due to effective tolerance to self antigens and alloantigens, respectively. The breakdown of ...
