Vaccination to prevent human papillomavirus (HPV)-related infection leading to cancer, particularly cervical cancer, is a major public health breakthrough. There are currently two licensed HPV vaccines, both of which contain recombinant virus-like particles of HPV types 16 and 18 (which account for approximately 70 % of cervical cancer). One vaccine also protects against HPV types 6 and 11, which...
Female-only vaccination programmes for human papillomavirus (HPV) have been introduced in many countries aimed at the prevention of cervical cancer in women. One HPV vaccine is registered for male vaccination, but boys, men, or both, are not yet included in nationally funded HPV vaccination programmes. In this Review we discuss the different considerations relevant to the introduction of population-wide...
Concerns of immune cross-reactivity, between epitopes of the group A streptococcal (GAS) M-proteins and host proteins have hindered the progress of an effective GAS vaccine. An ideal M-protein based subunit vaccine should not elicit heart tissue cross-reactive antibody responses and should not activate M-protein specific CD4 + T-cells. In the current study we used a bioinformatic and immunoinformatic...
