Development of Dengue Vaccine
The dengue viruses are estimated to cause several hundred thousand cases of dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome annually. Attempts to prevent the infection focus on the development of a vaccine that would protect against all four serotypes of the dengue virus. Various biotechnological approaches are being explored, including the use of live attenuated or inactivate...
متن کاملDengue vaccine development and dengue viral neutralization and enhancement assays.
Dengue fever is a major tropical infectious disease that affects 50-100 million people each year. Its complications, namely dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, disproportionately afflict children and young adults. The primary goal of several vaccines now in development is to elicit protective neutralizing antibody responses; however, the exact definition of such responses remai...
متن کاملIssues Related to Recent Dengue Vaccine Development
Dengue fever (DF) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) are mosquito-transmitted diseases of global importance. Despite significant research efforts, no approved vaccines or antiviral drugs against these diseases are currently available. This brief article reviews the status of dengue vaccine development, with particular emphasis on the vaccine strategies in more advanced stages of evaluation; the...
متن کاملDevelopment of Sanofi Pasteur tetravalent dengue vaccine.
The Sanofi Pasteur tetravalent dengue vaccine candidate is composed of 4 recombinant live attenuated vaccines based on a yellow fever vaccine 17D (YFV 17D) backbone, each expressing the prM and envelope genes of one of the four dengue virus serotypes. Pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that the TV dengue vaccine is genetically and phenotypically stable, non-hepatotropic, less neurovirulent ...
متن کاملImmune correlates for dengue vaccine development.
Dengue virus is the leading cause of vector-borne viral disease with four serotypes in circulation. Vaccine development has been complicated by the potential for both protection and disease enhancement during heterologous infection. Secondary infection triggers cross-reactive immune memory responses that have varying functional and epitope specificities that determine protection or risk. Strong...
