In Silico Evaluation of a Mutant Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) of Staphylococcus aureus as a Putative Vaccine Candidate [PDF]
Introduction: The development of a vaccine against Staphylococcus aureus has proven to be much more difficult than expected. In this study, we considered and analyzed a mutant Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) as a potential vaccine candidate ...

Selection of neutralizing antibody escape mutants with type A influenza virus HA-specific polyclonal antisera: possible significance for antigenic drift [PDF]
Ten antisera were produced in rabbits by two or three intravenous injections of inactivated whole influenza type A virions. All contained haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) antibody directed predominantly to an epitope in antigenic site B and, in addition,

Identification of hepatitis a virus mimotopes by phage display, antigenicity and immunogenicity [PDF]
A phage-displayed peptide approach was used to identify ligands mimicking antigenic determinants of hepatitis A virus (HAV) for the first time. Bacteriophages displaying HAV mimotopes were isolated from a phage-display peptide library by affinity ...

Epitope (determinant) spreading is the development of immune responses to endogenous epitopes secondary to the release of self antigens during a chronic autoimmune or inflammatory response. The past year has seen considerable advances in our understanding of the contribution of epitope spreading to the chronic pathogenesis of experimental T-cell ...

Pharmaceutically modified subtilisins withstand acidic conditions and effectively degrade gluten in vivo [PDF]
Detoxification of gluten immunogenic epitopes is a promising strategy for the treatment of celiac disease. Our previous studies have shown that these epitopes can be degraded in vitro by subtilisin enzymes derived from Rothia mucilaginosa, a natural ...
