Papillomavirus-like particle vaccines.
Papillomavirus-like particle (VLP)-based subunit vaccines have undergone rapid development over the past 8 years. Three types are being investigated. The most basic type is composed of only the L1 major capsid protein and is designed to prevent genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection by inducing virus-neutralizing antibodies. On the basis of positive results in animal models, clinical tria...
متن کاملDevelopment of picornavirus-like particle vaccines
2015 Vaccination has been the most effective and economical way of combating the spread of infectious disease. Virus-like particles (VLPs) against human and animal diseases caused by picornaviruses are actively being researched and developed as potential vaccines. Promising immunogenicity and protective efficacy data has been reported for VLPs produced using various expression systems. The tran...
متن کاملThe human papillomavirus vaccines.
Genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI) among sexually active couples. Its annual incidence is approximately 5.5 million. Overall, an estimated 75% of sexually active men and women have been exposed to HPV at some point in their lives. HPV-16 and -18 account for about 70% of cancers of the cervix, vagina and anus, and for about 30%-40...
متن کاملProphylactic human papillomavirus vaccines.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes virtually all cases of cervical cancer, the second most common cause of death from cancer among women worldwide. This Review examines prophylactic HPV subunit vaccines based on the ability of the viral L1 capsid protein to form virus-like particles (VLPs) that induce high levels of neutralizing antibodies. Following preclinical research by laboratorie...
متن کاملVaccines against human papillomavirus.
Human papillomavirus has been identified as an etiological factor for cervical cancer, anogenital cancers and a subset of head and neck cancers. These important observations suggest that HPV vaccines have potential in the prevention and treatment of cervical cancer and other HPV-associated malignancies. The HPV genome encodes two HPV late genes, L1 and L2, which form the viral capsid. Early vir...
