Objective
This study was undertaken to identify blood markers of juvenile dermatomyositis (DM) disease activity (DA), which are needed to improve disease management.
Methods
The study comprised a total of 123 juvenile DM patients and 53 healthy controls. Results of laboratory tests (aldolase, creatinine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase [LDH], aspartate aminotransferase) and clinical measures of DA...
Given the limited success of clinical HIV vaccine trials, new vaccine strategies are needed for the HIV pipeline. The present study explored the novel concept that a live enteric virus, with limited disease potential, is a suitable vaccine vector to elicit HIV-specific immune responses in the gut mucosa of immunized mice. Two coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) vaccine vectors were designed to induce HIV-specific...
The recent outbreaks of H5N1 avian and H1N1 swine-origin influenza viruses highlight the urgent need for vaccine strategies able to confer broad host immunity against both seasonal and pandemic strains of influenza. As the lung mucosa is the first barrier against pulmonary influenza infection, an effective influenza vaccine strategy should elicit anti-viral immune responses in the respiratory tract...
