Sentences with phrase «vaccine antigens more»

Not exact matches

In fact, even though they get more vaccines now and are protected against more vaccine - preventable diseases, kids actually get far fewer antigens with each vaccine than ever before.

Recombinant vaccines rely on one or more antigens — proteins associated with the target bacterium — that boost an immune response; in this case Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which causes TB.

The Cancer Vaccine Collaborative is working on treatments that target multiple cancer antigens, which should trigger a more aggressive immune response and increase the odds of defeating tumors.

Compared to a bolus injection containing the same drugs and antigens (but no scaffold), the 3D vaccine was more effective at preventing tumor growth, with 90 % of mice receiving the 3D vaccine still alive at 30 days compared with only 60 % of mice given the bolus injection.

They could potentially play a role in the event of a pandemic, in this case by «antigen sparing», allowing efficacy with lower doses of the influenza antigen — thereby allowing faster production of more doses of the vaccine as early as possible in the pandemic.

These are more specific therapies such as monoclonal antibodies and cancer vaccines, which target specific tumor antigens.

The department has developed and produced 15 different formulations for early clinical trials (e.g. vaccine antigens produced by heterologous expression) and has conducted more than 20 clinical trials as sponsor.

Overall, this study both identifies specific antigen combinations for high - priority clinical testing and establishes a generalizable approach that is more likely to produce effective vaccines.

There is no evidence in Marek's disease that vaccine breakthrough by more virulent strains has anything to do with overcoming strain - specific immunity (e.g., epitope evolution); genetic and immunological comparisons of strains varying in virulence suggest that candidate virulence determinants are associated with host — cell interactions and viral replication, not antigens [19].

So vaccines contain either small amounts of inactivated antigen or, more recently, subunit antigen particles that look like a virus to the body but can't really stimulate much of an immune response on their own.

Although young puppies and kittens exposed this frequently to vaccine antigens may not demonstrate overt adverse effects, their relatively immature immune systems may be temporarily or more permanently harmed.
