Active immunization by a dengue virus-induced cytokine

A new Approach to active Immunization of Sheep by a combined Sheep pox and Anthrax Vaccine

Protection of mice against dengue 2 virus encephalitis by immunization with the dengue 2 virus non-structural glycoprotein NS1.

Immunization of mice with the dengue 2 virus (DEN 2)-specified non-structural protein NS1 provided significant protection against intracerebral challenge with the virus in the absence of detectable neutralizing or other anti-virion antibody. NS1, purified from lysates of infected Vero cells by immunoaffinity chromatography, expressed an antigenic site(s) common to each of the four DEN serotypes...

Release of Dengue Virus Genome Induced by a Peptide Inhibitor

Dengue virus infects approximately 100 million people annually, but there is no available therapeutic treatment. The mimetic peptide, DN59, consists of residues corresponding to the membrane interacting, amphipathic stem region of the dengue virus envelope (E) glycoprotein. This peptide is inhibitory to all four serotypes of dengue virus, as well as other flaviviruses. Cryo-electron microscopy ...

Immunization of mice with recombinant vaccinia virus expressing authentic dengue virus nonstructural protein NS1 protects against lethal dengue virus encephalitis.

The protective immunity conferred by a set of recombinant vaccinia viruses containing the entire coding sequence of dengue virus type 4 nonstructural glycoprotein NS1 plus various flanking sequences was evaluated by using a mouse encephalitis model. Mice immunized with recombinant vNS1-NS2a, which expresses authentic NS1, were solidly protected against intracerebral dengue virus challenge. Howe...
