DNA Vaccines: A Review

1999
Therapeutic and prophylactic DNA vaccine clinical trials for a variety of pathogens and cancers are underway (Chattergoon et al., 1997; Taubes, 1997). The speed with which initiation of these trials occurred is no less than astounding; clinical trials for a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) gp160 DNA-based vaccine were underway within 36 months of the

Plasmid DNA Vaccines

Current Drug Targets - Immune, Endocrine & Metabolic Disorders, 2001
Genes that code for the production of protein antigens have been cloned and recombined with plasmids. Gene-plasmid constructs have been amplified in a bacterial host, purified and administered to a mammalian host. The gene is expressed in the host and the antigen that is produced induces an immune response.

DNA vaccines for cancer

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2006
DNA vaccines, also referred to as genetic, plasmid or polynucleotide vaccines, represent a relatively simple and economical method to exploit gene transfer for immunization against tumor associated antigens. This review discusses the potential advantages of DNA vaccines for cancer immunotherapy as compared to conventional protein vaccines and viral ...

DNA Vaccination Techniques

2014
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common inflammatory, demyelinating, and neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) in humans. Although the etiology of MS remains unknown, several lines of evidence support the notion that autoimmunity against components of the myelin sheath plays a major role in susceptibility to and development ...

DNA Technology and Vaccines

International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 1994
AbstractIt has been 20 years since the concepts that are now embraced in the term recombinant DNA technology were first described. The technology has been used to design new vaccines, and one product — that for hepatitis B — has been in widespread use for almost a decade.

Veterinary DNA Vaccines

2003
Vaccination has relied, in general, on two technologies for the production of antigenic material suitable for the generation of a protective immune response; live infectious agents and inactivated or subunit vaccine preparations. Live infectious agents generally are most efficacious, but there is always a risk factor when using this type of vaccine ...

DNA vaccines for transplantation

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2010
DNA vaccination for transplantation has been less investigated compared with DNA vaccines for infectious disease, cancer and pathological autoimmunity. However, the emerging role of transplant-induced autoimmunity in allograft rejection may lead to the development of new DNA vaccination approaches where peripheral delivery of an antigen shared by ...

Influenza DNA vaccines

Vaccine, 2002
DNA vaccines have been the subjects of much effort over the past decade due to their ability to induce broad-based immune responses and protection in various animal models of infectious and non-infectious diseases. In particular, influenza DNA vaccines have been well studied.

DNA Vaccination in Chickens

2016
Robust and sustainable development of poultry industry requires prevention of deadly infectious diseases. Vigorous vaccination of the birds is a routine practice; however, the live and inactivated vaccines that are used have inherent disadvantages. New-generation vaccines such as DNA vaccines offer several advantages over conventional vaccines.

Tuberculosis DNA Vaccines

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2001
DNA vaccines have been the subject of intense investigation for the past 10 y, during which time several tuberculosis (TB) DNA vaccines have been shown to confer protective immunity in animal models. So far, proof of principle for priming of immune responses by a naked DNA vaccine (malaria) has been demonstrated in humans, but potency remains a ...
