Wanted, an Anthrax vaccine: Dead or Alive? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
It has been more than 100 years since the realization that microbes are capable of causing disease. In that time, we have learned a great deal as to how each organism has adapted to the immune system so as to avoid elimination.

A Nanomodulator Enhances Radiotherapy‐Induced In Situ Cancer Vaccine by Promoting Antigen‐Presenting of Tumor‐Associated Macrophage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A nanomodulator (Ft‐E64/Hf@Lipo) is developed, combining radiosensitizer hafnium (Hf) and the cysteine protease inhibitor E64, which cooperatively reinvigorated the antigen presentation of TAMs. Ft‐E64/Hf@Lipo sensitized‐RT generated abundant tumor neoantigens, and then E64/antigens, along with the apoptotic tumor cells, trafficked to TAMs via ...

BCG‐Derived Outer Membrane Vesicles Induce TLR2‐Dependent Trained Immunity to Protect Against Polymicrobial Sepsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
B‐OMVs, nanoscale vesicles derived from BCG, are identified as effective and safe inducers of trained immunity that protect against sepsis. Through TLR2‐mediated metabolic and epigenetic reprogramming of hematopoietic stem cells, B‐OMVs enhance inflammatory response and phagocytic activity.

Trends and measurement of HIV prevalence in northern Malawi.

open access: yes, 2003
BACKGROUND: Most data on HIV prevalence in Malawi come from antenatal clinic (ANC) surveillance and are, therefore, subject to bias. OBJECTIVES: HIV prevalence and risk factors were measured using population-based data to assess the accuracy of ANC ...

Mucosal delivery of tuberculosis vaccines: a review of current approaches and challenges. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major health threat and it is now clear that the current vaccine, BCG, is unable to arrest the global TB epidemic. A new vaccine is needed to either replace or boost BCG so that a better level of protection could

Targeting Neutrophil/Eosinophil Extracellular Traps by Aptamer‐Functionalized Nanosheets to Overcome Recalcitrant Inflammatory Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, C‐TAH, as multifunctional nanosheets, is developed with tannic acid and histone aptamer coverage. C‐TAH displays mild cytotoxicity, robust dsDNA and NETs/EETs binding efficiency, and potent antioxidant and antibacterial ability in vitro. C‐TAH treatment ameliorates dysregulated inflammation and restores hearing function in animal models,

Optimal immunization strategies for Saanen goats against goatpox

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research
Background Goatpox is a highly contagious disease caused by the Capripoxvirus, primarily affecting sheep and goats. Breeds like the Saanen are particularly vulnerable, especially in enzootic areas, and face risks not only from the disease itself but also

Vaksin Dna: Vaksin Generasi Keempat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Vaccines have been developed for a range of different infectious diseases. The complex-ity of microbial infections requires novel approaches to vaccine design. The first-generation of vaccines were live attenuated pathogens.

Parenteral vaccination of mammalian livestock with Newcastle disease virus-based vector vaccines offers optimal efficacy and safety [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is an avian virus that is being evaluated as a vaccine vector for the delivery of foreign genes in mammals. The use of NDV as a vaccine vector in these species offers two major advantages.
