[ 1 ] - The Effect of Cationic Liposomes Encapsulating pcDNA3.1+PA Plasmids on Humoral Immune Response in Mice
Background: DNA vaccines are third generation vaccines which have made promises to combat infectious diseases. Cationic liposomes are used as effective delivery systems for DNA vaccines to generate stronger immunity. Objective: Encapsulation of pcDNA3.1+PA plasmid, encoding protective antigen (PA) of Bacillus anthracis (B. anthracis) into cationic liposomes, and evaluation of its effect on spec...
[ 2 ] - Construction of a Eukaryotic Plasmid Encoding Bacillus anthracis Protective Antigen, a Candidate for DNA Vaccine
Background: DNA immunization with plasmid DNA encoding bacterial, viral, parasitic and tumor antigens has been reported to trigger protective immunity. Objective: To evaluate the use of a DNA immunization strategy for protection against anthrax, a plasmid was constructed. Methods: The partialsequence of protective antigen of Bacillus anthracis, amino acids 175-764, as a potent immunogenic targe...
[ 3 ] - Isolation, cloning and expression of the Brucella melitensis Omp31 gene
Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease transmitted to humans either from animals or from their products.Although brucellosis can be found worldwide, the Mediterranean Basin, South and Central America, EasternEurope, Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East have currently been listed as high-risk regions. Thegenus Brucella is classified in at least nine species. Brucella melitensis is the glo...
