background: antibiotic resistance and the need for long-term treatments especially for chronic infections necessitate the developmentof a vaccine against pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.objectives: in this study, recombinant exotoxin a (domains i and ii), (exoa i-ii) protein was expressed, purifid and its immunologicalcharacteristics were evaluated in a mouse model.materials and methods: the g...

conclusions the results indicated that dt increased anti-ops antibodies against the ops-dt compound. the antibody response to ops-dt was greater than that to ops alone. we conclude that ops-dt is an appropriate and acceptable vaccine candidate against salmonellosis. results two weeks after the first vaccination dose, there was no significant difference in the antibody titers of the ops and ops-...

background and objectives: glycoprotein 96 is the primary chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum. immunization with it induced potent cytotoxic t lymphocyte responses to intracellular bacteria. s. typhimurium is a facultative intracellular bacterium and acquired resistance against this bacterium mainly depends on activity of cytotoxic t cells. this study aimed to evaluate the capacity of glycop...

objective: today, aids is considered as a global problem and many efforts to generate an effective vaccine against this disease have been made, but remain inconclusive. dna vaccines are a member of the new generation of vaccines that can efficiently stimulate the immune system. however, recent findings indicate low immunogenicity for these vaccines and it is believed that these types of vaccine...

conclusions data from this study about scla were not sufficient and further studies are needed; however, the information here suggests that scla could be a candidate for further research on the design of drugs and vaccines against s. pyogenes infections. results the scla protein is present on the cell surface of the cell and has interact with a common ligand by its hypervariable nh2-terminal re...

objective: several vaccines against hiv have been investigated but none has been approved as an effective hiv vaccine. an approach that could induce stronger immune response against the pathogen is utilizing a multi-epitopic vaccine. this strategy was used in the design of several vaccines and resulted in improved immune responses. materials and methods: in this study a multi-epitopic fusion p...

objective: the global hiv epidemic continues to expand and exceeding previous predictions. an effective vaccine represents the best hope to curtail the hiv epidemic. dna vaccines induce humoral and cellular responses and mimic live vaccines without their pathogenic potential. the importance of cd8+ ctl responses in controlling hiv and siv viremia has led to production of a series of vaccine can...

Introduction: Some strains of Escherichia Coli, including intestinal pathogenic strains, commensal strains, and extra intestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) have a significant impact on human health status. A standard vaccine designed based on conserved epitopes can stimulate a protective immune response against these pathogens. Additionally, enhanced expression at the infection site as a pathog...

Brucellosis is a debilitative disease that imposes costs on both economy and society. It is shown that although the vaccine can prevent abortion, it does not provide complete protection against infection. In Iran, Brucella melitensis is a common causative agent for brucellosis and BP26 protein of this bacterium having a good antigenesity and an important vaccine candidate. In this study B. meli...
