:Immunology of Infectious Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2002
Whether an infectious disease agent is an “old acquaintance” or a new, emerging threat, the immune system’s battle against it is usually the first line of defense it encounters. With vaccines and effective treatments often unavailable, the immune system’s efforts to eradicate infectious agents or infected cells are frequently the only means to combat ...

A Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific subunit vaccine that provides synergistic immunity upon co-administration with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Tuberculosis (TB) subunit vaccines have been investigated as boosters for BCG-induced immunity. Here, the authors design a TB subunit vaccine that doesn't share antigens with BCG and show that co-administration of the two vaccines broadens the T cell ...

A protective, single-visit TB vaccination regimen by co-administration of a subunit vaccine with BCG

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2023
The only licensed tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG), fails to reliably protect adolescents and adults from pulmonary TB, resulting in ~1.6 million deaths annually. Protein subunit vaccines have shown promise against TB in clinical

On the cause and consequences of IgE to galactose-α−1,3-galactose: A report from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease Workshop on Understanding IgE-Mediated Mammalian Meat Allergy

open access: yesJournal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2020
The mammalian meat allergy known as the “α-Gal syndrome” relates to IgE specific for galactose-α−1,3-galactose (α-Gal), an oligosaccharide that is present in cells and tissues of nonprimate mammals.
