Induction of Neutralizing Antibodies against Diphtheria Toxin by Priming with Recombinant Mycobacterium bovis BCG Expressing CRM197, a Mutant Diphtheria Toxin

Miyaji, Eliane N., Mazzantini, Rogerio P., Dias, Waldely O., Marcovistz, Rugimar, Matos, Denise S., ...

BCG, the attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis, has been widely used as a vaccine against tuberculosis and is thus an important candidate as a live carrier for multiple antigens. With the aim of...

Recombinant Mycobacterium bovis BCG Expressing Pertussis Toxin Subunit S1 Induces Protection against an Intracerebral Challenge with Live Bordetella pertussis in Mice

Nascimento, Ivan P., Dias, Waldely O., Mazzantini, Rogerio P., Miyaji, Eliane N., Gamberini, Marcia, Quintilio, Wagner, ...

The recent development of acellular pertussis vaccines has been a significant improvement in the conventional whole-cell diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus toxoid vaccines, but high production costs will...

Analysis of Serum Cross-Reactivity and Cross-Protection Elicited by Immunization with DNA Vaccines against Streptococcus pneumoniae Expressing PspA Fragments from Different Clades

Miyaji, Eliane N., Ferreira, Daniela M., Lopes, Alexandre P. Y., Brandileone, M. Cristina C., Dias, Waldely O., Leite, Luciana C. C.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of disease, especially in developing countries, and cost-effective alternatives to the currently licensed vaccines are needed. We constructed DNA vaccines...

Genetic Diversity of PspA Types among Nasopharyngeal Isolates Collected during an Ongoing Surveillance Study of Children in Brazil

Pimenta, Fabiana Cristina, Ribeiro-Dias, Fátima, Brandileone, Maria Cristina C., Miyaji, Eliane N., Leite, Luciana C. C.

Pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) has been considered a potential candidate for human vaccines because of its serotype-independent protective immunity. Nasopharyngeal (NP) pneumococcal...
