An individual's CD8(+)-cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte (CTL) response to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent cycle antigens focuses on a small number of immunodominant epitopes often presented by just one of the available HLA class I alleles; for example, HLA-A11-positive Caucasians frequently respond to two immunodominant HLA A11 epitopes, IVTDFSVIK (IVT) and AVFDRKSDAK (AVF), within the nuclear antigen EB...
Development of a prophylactic vaccine against hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been hampered by the extraordinary viral diversity and the poor host immune response. Scaffolding, by grafting an epitope onto a heterologous protein scaffold, offers a possible solution to epitope vaccine design. In this study, we designed and characterized epitope vaccine antigens for the antigenic sites of HCV envelope...
Both theoretical predictions and experimental findings suggest that T cell populations can compete with each other. There is some debate on whether T cells compete for aspecific stimuli, such as access to the surface on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) or for specific stimuli, such as their cognate epitope ligand. We have developed an individual-based computer simulation model to study T cell co...
From 2003 to 2013, Indonesia had the highest number of avian influenza A cases in humans, with 192 cases and 160 fatalities. Avian influenza is caused by influenza virus type A, such as subtype H5N1. This virus has two glycoproteins: hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, which will become the primary target to be neutralized by vaccine. Vaccine is the most effective immunologic intervention. In this...
Previous studies suggested that both the frequency and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of cytokine secreting T cells could be of great value for immunogenicity evaluation of a vaccine. In this study, by constructing epitope-based DNA vaccines encoding a previously identified CD8(+) T cell epitope, we investigated the influence of multiplying epitope copies on both the frequency and the MF...
Accurate measurement of B and T cell responses is a valuable tool to study autoimmunity, allergies, immunity to pathogens, and host-pathogen interactions and assist in the design and evaluation of T cell vaccines and immunotherapies. In this context, it is desirable to elucidate a method to select validated reference sets of epitopes to allow detection of T and B cells. However, the ever-growin...

Safaei Department of medical laboratory sciences, Faculty of paraMedicine, Ahvaz jundishapour University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, Iran Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran * Presenter & Corresponding author Abstract: Introduction: T cell responses are stimulated by the presence of short peptides b...
Abstract Vaccination with tumor epitopes associated MHC-I is an attractive approach directed at inducing tumor-specific CTLs. However, challenges remain in improving the therapeutic efficacy of peptide epitope vaccines, including low immunogenicity and insufficient stimulation innate immune components vivo. Herein, we report innovative strategy to overcome limitations. The essential feature thi...
Background: The newly emerged coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19 disease, appeared in Wuhan, China December 2019 and led to death millions people. pandemic has increased demand for effective vaccines treatments worldwide. Due changes virus genome caused by mutation, variants with higher transmission ability pathogenicity have raised excessive concerns about efficiency deve...
Extensive antigenic diversity within the GII.4 genotype of human norovirus is a major driver of pandemic emergence and a significant obstacle to development of cross-protective immunity after natural infection and vaccination. However, human and mouse monoclonal antibody studies indicate that, although rare, antibodies to conserved GII.4 blockade epitopes are generated. The mechanisms by which ...
