­GENERATION OF ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC T AND B CELLS USING ENGINEERED COMMENSALS
­GENERATION OF ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC T AND B CELLS USING ENGINEERED COMMENSALS Researchers at Stanford have developed methods to link antigenic or immunomodulatory molecules to bacterial surface proteins of commensal bacteria that result in a high immune response when applied to an epithelial surface of a mammal. Commensal microbiota reside primarily...

Anti-Arthropod Vector Vaccines, Methods of Selecting, and Uses Thereof
Leishmania parasites are transmitted to their vertebrate hosts by infected phlebotomine sand fly bites. Sand fly saliva is known to enhance Leishmania infection, while immunity to the saliva protects against infection. This invention claims nine major salivary proteins from the sand fly vector of Leishmania major, Phlebotomus papatasi, nucleic acids...
