BACTERIAL OUTER MEMBRANE VESICLES AND VACCINE APPLICATIONS [PDF]
Vaccines based on outer membrane vesicles (OMV) were developed more than 20 years ago against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. These nano-sized structures exhibit remarkable potential for immunomodulation of immune responses and delivery of self ...

Outer Membrane Vesicles: An Emerging Vaccine Platform
Vaccine adjuvants are substances that improve the immune capacity of a recombinant vaccine to a great extent and have been in use since the early 1900s; they are primarily short-lived and initiate antigen activity, mainly an inflammatory response.

Proteomics of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Outer Membrane Vesicles. [PDF]
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral and systemic pathogen associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis and with endocarditis. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by this species have been demonstrated to deliver effector proteins ...

Acinetobacter baumannii secretes cytotoxic outer membrane protein A via outer membrane vesicles. [PDF]
Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen that causes a high morbidity and mortality rate in infected patients, but pathogenic mechanisms of this microorganism regarding the secretion and delivery of virulence factors to host cells have

Evaluation of Helicobacter pylori-derived outer membrane vesicles on the expression of inflammatory cytokines [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Helicobacter pylori infection has been increasingly linked to extra-gastric diseases. Outer membrane vesicles are a key virulence factor of H. pylori. This study investigates the influence of H.

Outer membrane vesicles: A bacterial-derived vaccination system
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are non-living spherical nanostructures that derive from the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. OMVs are important in bacterial pathogenesis, cell-to-cell communication, horizontal gene transfer, quorum sensing, and ...

Outer membrane vesicles hijack TIM-1 for cellular uptake. [PDF]
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanoscale proteoliposomes shed by Gram-negative bacteria that mediate host-pathogen interactions and hold promise as platforms for vaccines and targeted drug delivery.

Outer membrane vesicle vaccines [PDF]
Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMV) have received increased attention in recent years as a vaccine platform against bacterial pathogens. OMV from Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B have been extensively explored. Following the success of the MeNZB OMV vaccine in controlling an outbreak of N.

The Role of Vesicles in Transporting of Cholera Toxin
The review reports on the secretion pathways of the main virulence factor of Vibrio cholerae, cholera toxin, both through the two-stage Sec-dependent type 2 secretion system and with the help of vesicles of the outer membrane of V. cholerae.
