Host genetic determinants of T cell responses to the MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag/pol/nef vaccine in the step trial

Jacques Fellay

Understanding how human genetic variation impacts individual response to immunogens is fundamental for rational vaccine development. To explore host mechanisms involved in cellular immune responses to the MRKAd5 human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) ...

PPS nanoparticles as versatile delivery system to induce systemic and broad mucosal immunity after intranasal administration

Eleonora Simeoni, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Mikaël Martino, Armando Stano

Degradable polymer nanoparticles (NPs, 50nm) based on polypropylene sulfide (PPS) were conjugated to thiolated antigen and adjuvant proteins by reversible disulfide bonds and evaluated in mucosal vaccination. Ovalbumin was used as a model antigen, and anti ...

Exploiting immunofunctional nanoparticles as vaccines and synthetic pathogens

Sai Reddy

The emergence of recombinant DNA technology has shifted research towards developing subunit vaccines, which use protein or peptide antigens instead of live/attenuated pathogens. Recent research has also shown that the best way to get sustained immunity is ...

Polyclonal and specific antibodies mediate protective immunity against enteric helminth infection

Nicola Harris, Andrew J. Macpherson

Anti-helminth immunity involves CD4+ T cells, yet the precise effector mechanisms responsible for parasite killing or expulsion remain elusive. We now report an essential role for antibodies in mediating immunity against the enteric helminth Heligmosomoide ...

Nanoparticle based Tuberculosis vaccine

Bastien Schyrr

Despite the widespread use of Bacille de Calmette et Guérin (BCG) for over50 years, tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major global health problem, especially in developing countries. Indeed BCG as been shown to reduce infant mortality, but demonstrated v ...

Towards an immunodiagnostic test for leprosy

Stewart Cole

In addition to multidrug therapy, elimination of leprosy requires improved diagnostic methods. Using a comparative genomics approach, 17 potential protein antigens (MLP) that are restricted to Mycobacterium leprae, or of limited distribution, were produced ...

High epitope expression levels increase competition between T cells

Marcel Salathé

Both theoretical predictions and experimental findings suggest that T cell populations can compete with each other. There is some debate on whether T cells compete for aspecific stimuli, such as access to the surface on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) or f ...

Medicinal properties of organometallic compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Claire Samantha Allardyce

Although organometallic compds. are ubiquitous in nature, synthetic organometallic compds. are generally considered to be toxic or non-compatible with biol. systems. Despite this perception the medicinal properties of organometallic compds., in particular ...

Selections for enzymatic catalysts

Christian Heinis, Dario Neri

A review on various methods for the selection of catalysts using phage display. The different approaches (selection of catalysts by binding and direct selections for catalytic activity) are presented. Metallo-beta -lactamase BCII from Bacillus cereus was u ...

The Laboratory in a Droplet

Kai Johnsson

In this issue of Chem. & Biol., the groups of Tawfik and Griffiths present fluorescence-activated cell sorting of double emulsions as a generally applicable screen for enzyme activity. This novel methodol. increases the throughput of a typical enzyme scree ...
