Immunization with HIV-1 envelope T20-encoding DNA vaccines elicits cross-clade neutralizing antibody responses

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
Background: Genetic immunization is expected to induce the expression of antigens in a native form. The encoded peptide epitopes are presented on endogenous MHC molecules, mimicking antigen presentation during a viral infection.

CD20 and CD19 targeted vectors induce minimal activation of resting B lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
B lymphocytes are an important cell population of the immune system. However, until recently it was not possible to transduce resting B lymphocytes with retro- or lentiviral vectors, making them unsusceptible for genetic manipulations by these vectors ...

Expression, Purification and Characterization of Ricin vectors used for exogenous antigen delivery into the MHC Class I presentation pathway

open access: yesBiological Procedures Online, 2003
Disarmed versions of the cytotoxin ricin can deliver fused peptides into target cells leading to MHC class I-restricted antigen presentation [Smith et al. J Immunol 2002; 169:99-107].

In vivo genetic manipulation of inner ear connexin expression by bovine adeno-Associated viral vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We have previously shown that in vitro transduction with bovine adeno-associated viral (BAAV) vectors restores connexin expression and rescues gap junction coupling in cochlear organotypic cultures from connexin-deficient mice that are models DFNB1 ...

Sparse reduced-rank regression for imaging genetics studies: models and applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present a novel statistical technique; the sparse reduced rank regression (sRRR) model which is a strategy for multivariate modelling of high-dimensional imaging responses and genetic predictors.

Antigen capsid-display on human adenovirus 35 via pIX fusion is a potent vaccine platform. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Durable protection against complex pathogens is likely to require immunity that comprises both humoral and cellular responses. While heterologous prime-boost regimens based on recombinant, replication-incompetent Adenoviral vectors (AdV) and adjuvanted ...

Designing Lentiviral Vectors for Gene Therapy of Genetic Diseases

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Lentiviral vectors are the most frequently used tool to stably transfer and express genes in the context of gene therapy for monogenic diseases. The vast majority of clinical applications involves an ex vivo modality whereby lentiviral vectors are used ...

Anticipating the species jump: surveillance for emerging viral threats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Zoonotic disease surveillance is typically triggered after animal pathogens have already infected humans. Are there ways to identify high-risk viruses before they emerge in humans? If so, then how and where can identifications be made and by what methods?

Transcellular targeting of fiber- and hexon-modified adenovirus vectors across the brain microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In central nervous system (CNS)-directed gene therapy, efficient targeting of brain parenchyma through the vascular route is prevented by the endothelium and the epithelium of the blood-brain and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers, respectively.
