The common reported adverse impacts of COVID-19 vaccination include the injection site’s local reaction followed by various non-specific flu-like symptoms. Nevertheless, uncommon cases of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) following viral vector vaccines (ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine, Ad26.COV2 vaccine) have been reported. This liter...

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...

Background: Development of an effective vaccine is highly needed in order to restrict the AIDS pandemic. DNA vaccines initiate both arms of immunity without the potential of causing disease. HIV-1 p24 and gp41 (gag and env) proteins play important roles in viral pathogenesis and are effective candidates for immune induction and vaccine design. Objective: In this study, new DNA vaccine candidate...

objective: the aim of this study was to construct a pcdna3.1+ vector containing fmdv type o/irn/1/2007-vp1 gene, protein expression in bhkt7 cells and evaluation of immune response in balb/c mice. materials and methods: fmdv type o/irn/1/2007 was isolated from a cattle in ray in 2007 and serotyped. the purified vp1 gene was sub-cloned into the ptz57r/t vector and pcdna3.1+ expression vector. t...

conclusions mtb32c and hbha genes were successfully isolated from h37rv genome and cloned into an eukaryotic expression vector. this vector can be considered as a vaccine to evaluate immune responses in animal models. results in the current study, recombinant pcdna3.1 (+) vector containing mtb32c and hbha genes was successfully constructed. the desired size of dna fragment was observed using si...

background: development of an effective vaccine is highly needed in order to restrict the aids pandemic. dna vaccines initiate both arms of immunity without the potential of causing disease. hiv-1 p24 and gp41 (gag and env) proteins play important roles in viral pathogenesis and are effective candidates for immune induction and vaccine design. objective: in this study, new dna vaccine candidate...

Background: Hepatitis C (HCV) is a worldwide problem without an effective vaccine with more than 170 million chronically infected people worldwide. DNA vaccines expressing antigenic portions of the virus with adjutants have recently been developed as a novel vaccination technology. Objectives: In the present study, a DNA vaccine expressing HCV core protein was developed with IL12 as a genetic a...

There are many different bacterial infections in the world that patients are suffering from and research teams are trying to find suitable ways to prevent and treat them. Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are most important infections in the world , and they are more common among women because vaginal cavity is near to urethral opening. The aim of this study is cloning of synthetic gene include a...

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a major cause of death worldwide. Finding an effective vaccine against TB is the best way to control it. Several vaccines against this disease have been developed but none are completely protective. The aim of this study was to design and construct a cloning vector containing the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) heat shock protein X (hspX). Metho...
