Despite the reduction in adult invasive pneumococcal disease through ‘herd protection’ consequent to the introduction of childhood pneumococcal conjugate vaccination (PCV), a significant proportion of adults continue to develop pneumococcal pneumonia caused by one of the seven serotypes included in the seven-valent conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (PCV7). The clinical features and outcomes of these...
Vaccines are needed to reduce the zoonotic reservoir of Schistosoma japonicum infection in bovines in China. We have developed two experimental DNA vaccines and have already shown these to be capable of inducing partial protection in water buffalo naturally exposed to the risk of S. japonicum infection in the field. We now report a similar field trial in cattle, the other major bovine reservoir host...
Vaccines are needed to control zoonotic Schistosoma japonicum infection and several vaccine candidates have now been identified. Two of these (Sj28GST and Sj23) have shown particular promise in sheep when injected with Freund’s adjuvants. The objective of the present work was to find a vaccine formulation which may have potential for widespread use in the field. DNA vaccine formulations of these antigens...
The objectives of this work were to clone and express Chinese strain Schistosoma japonicum antigens and evaluate their immunogenicity and protective efficacy in the natural ovine host in China. Recombinant antigens selected for testing were: isoforms of glutathione S-transferase Sj28GST and Sj26GST; the large hydrophilic domain of Sj23, the homologue of the protective S. mansoni membrane antigen...
