This study presents the results of a survey safety and protective efficacy candidate vector-based vaccine for bovine tuberculosis, using an influenza vector with NS1 mutation expressing M. bovis antigens ESAT-6 TB10.4. We vaccinated Balb/c outbred mice two times at 21 days apart. Our experimental design includes immunised or without adjuvant 15% Montanide Gel. The vaccine’s was determined by bi...

BACKGROUND Schistosomiasis is the most important human helminth infection due to its impact on public health. The clinical manifestations are chronic and significantly decrease an individual's quality of life. Infected individuals suffer from long-term organ pathologies including fibrosis which eventually leads to organ failure. The development of a vaccine against this parasitic disease would ...

Several studies have shown that cell-mediated immune responses play a crucial role in controlling viral replication. As such, a candidate SARS vaccine should elicit broad CD8+ T-cell immune responses. Several groups of mice were immunized alone or in combination with SARS-nucleocapsid immunogen. A high level of specific SARS-CD8+ T-cell response was demonstrated in mice that received DNA encodi...

foot-and-mouth disease is an important viral disease of cloven-hoofed animals. inactivated whole particle virus vaccines are still widely used in prophylactic vaccination campaigns. the choice of adjuvant is a very important factor in enhancing immune responses and the efficacy of inactivated vaccines. montanide isa 61 vg is a new ready-to-use mineral oil-based adjuvant developed by seppic inc....

Abstract BACKGROUND Newly diagnosed glioblastoma (nGBM) has dismal outcomes with survival of 15-18 months. Tumor associated “survivin” is expressed in > 95% nGBM and targetable by SurVaxM immunotherapy. METHODS patients (pts) were enrolled this Phase 2 study, age ≥ 18, KPS 70, IHC confirmed surviving-expression, expression HLA-A*02, A*03, A*11 or A*24 MHC-I alleles residual contrast enha...

BACKGROUND Fully efficient vaccines against malaria pre-erythrocytic stage are still lacking. The objective of this dose/adjuvant-finding study was to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of a vaccine candidate based on a peptide spanning the C-terminal region of Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein (PfCS102) in malaria naive adults. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDI...

Chickens were immunized subcutaneously with an Eimeria recombinant profilin protein plus Montanide™ ISA 70 VG (ISA 70) or Montanide™ ISA 71 VG (ISA 71) water-in-oil adjuvants, or with profilin alone, and comparative RNA microarray hybridizations were performed to ascertain global transcriptome changes induced by profilin/ISA 70 vs. profilin alone and by profilin/ISA 71 vs. profilin alone. While...

introduction : designing an effective vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus (hiv)-1 is a global health priority . multi-epitope vaccines offer several potential advantages that may be promising in case of mutable divergent pathogens such as hiv-1. herein, a multiepitopic recombinant protein containing various hiv-1 antigens was expressed in e. coli cells and its immunogenicity in combina...
