Nasal administration is emerging as a new route of DNA vaccine delivery. We aimed to study the extent of absorption and biodistribution of intranasally administered plasmid DNA. After intranasal administration, the level of plasmid DNA in the serum peaked at 1.5 h. The ratio of the area under the concentration (AUC) after intranasal administration of DNA over the AUC after intravenous administration was 0.14. At 15 min post inoculation, the highest organ distribution was observed in the liver and the cervical lymph nodes showed the highest level among the lymph nodes. At 24 h a higher localization of plasmids to the brain than to the lung and spleen was notable. A significant level of mRNA expression was observed in the lymph nodes. These results suggest that plasmid DNA can be substantially absorbed and distributed to the lymph nodes after intranasal administration, partly explaining the systemic immunogenicity of intranasally administered plasmid DNA vaccines. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The virulence of rubella virus for the fetus was fully defined between 1963 and 1965 when an epidemic of rubella occurred in Europe and the US, followed by a wave of damaged babies. Attenuated live virus vaccines were developed in our and other laboratories and their use has already considerably changed the epidemiology of rubella. Nevertheless, only about half of the world’s countries vaccinat...

At the beginning of the new millenium (Jan 10, 2000) possibilities for preventing human papillomavirus (HPV) related cancer morbidity and mortality, particularly among women, were evaluated in a one day workshop in Helsinki, Finland. The workshop comprised an introductary keynote address and four sessions: 1. Epidemiology of life-threatening sexually transmitted infections, 2. Prerequisites for...

The use of biodegradable polymer matrices as a single-dose vaccine delivery system was investigated using tetanus toxoid (TT) and diphtheria toxoid (DT). BALB/c mice were immunized with TT or DT in different formulations including individual, in minipellet and aluminum hydroxide (alum), and the antibody responses were monitored for 48 weeks. Antigens entrapped in minipellet elicited higher anti...
