Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines [PDF]
Therapeutic cancer vaccines have the potential of being integrated in the therapy of numerous cancer types and stages. The wide spectrum of vaccine platforms and vaccine targets is reviewed along with the potential for development of vaccines to target cancer cell "stemness," the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype, and drug-resistant ...

Nanoparticles and Antiviral Vaccines
Viruses have threatened human lives for decades, causing both chronic and acute infections accompanied by mild to severe symptoms. During the long journey of confrontation, humans have developed intricate immune systems to combat viral infections.

Targeting purinergic pathway to enhance radiotherapy-induced immunogenic cancer cell death
Emerging evidence has demonstrated that radiotherapy (RT) can not only cause direct damage to cancer cells but also lead to immunogenic cell death (ICD), which involves the activation of host antitumor immune response in tumor immune microenvironment ...

Therapeutic vaccines in autoimmunity [PDF]
Similarly to prophylactic vaccines whose purpose is to prevent infectious diseases, therapeutic vaccines against autoimmune diseases are based on their similarity to the putative causes of the disease. We shall describe here two such examples: a copolymer of amino acids related to myelin basic protein, in the case of multiple ...

Vaccination against Cancer or Infectious Agents during Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy
The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has substantially increased the overall survival of cancer patients and has revolutionized the therapeutic situation in oncology. However, not all patients and cancer types respond to ICI, or become resistant

Chikungunya: vaccines and therapeutics [PDF]
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has come to prominence as a global, re-emerging pathogen over the last two decades, progressing from sporadic, remote outbreaks to worldwide explosive epidemics. From contained, though considerable, outbreaks in the southern Indian Ocean, parts of South America and the Caribbean, CHIKV continues to be a significant pathogen in

Effectiveness and efficiency of imperfect therapeutic HSV-2 vaccines
Efforts are currently underway to develop therapeutic vaccines for Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2). We use a mathematical model to predict the potential public health impact of imperfect, therapeutic HSV-2 vaccines.

HIV-specific T cells are necessary for control of HIV-1 replication but are largely insufficient for viral clearance. This is due in part to these cells’ recognition of immunodominant but variable regions of the virus, which facilitates viral escape via ...

Rhabdoviruses as vectors for vaccines and therapeutics [PDF]
Appropriate choice of vaccine vector is crucial for effective vaccine development. Rhabdoviral vectors, such as rabies virus and vesicular stomatitis virus, have been used in a variety of vaccine strategies. These viruses have small, easily manipulated genomes that can stably express foreign glycoproteins due to a well-established reverse genetics ...
