Carbohydrate moieties as vaccine candidates: targeting the sweet spot in the immune response.

Vaccine
Christopher E TaylorJohn R Schreiber

Abstract

Advances in the use of carbohydrates as vaccine candidates for the prevention of infectious and malignant diseases was the topic for a meeting in Rockville, MD, sponsored by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases involving a diverse group of scientists. Participants included research scientists and clinicians from academia and industry, and representatives from the National Institutes of Health and US Food and Drug Administration. This workshop was the third in a series of meetings designed to address issues relating to the immune response to carbohydrate antigens and how this information is used in the development of vaccines. Participants also identified roadblocks, research opportunities and resource needs. The meeting was organized into sessions that focused on recent advances in the immune response to microbial and cancer carbohydrate antigens, glycomics, novel vaccine approaches, novel adjuvants and delivery systems.

Avian Influenza: Innate Immune Adjuvant

Adjuvants systems that are added to vaccines against avian influenza have be explored to enhance the innate immune system response against the virus. Here is the latest research on avian influenza and the innate immune adjuvant.

Cancer Vaccines

Cancer vaccines are vaccines that either treat existing cancer or prevent development of a cancer.

Avian Influenza: Innate Immune Adjuvant (ASM)

Adjuvants systems that are added to vaccines against avian influenza have be explored to enhance the innate immune system response against the virus. Here is the latest research on avian influenza and the innate immune adjuvant.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
