摘要:
Contemplated compositions, devices, and methods are drawn to various antigens from the pathogen T. gondii and their use in various diagnostic tests, vaccines, and therapeutic agents. In particularly preferred aspects, the antigens are immunodominant and have quantified and known relative reactivities with respect to sera of a population infected with the pathogen, and/or have a known association with a disease parameter.
摘要:
Contemplated compositions, devices, and methods comprise immunodominant antigens from selected human pathogens (Burkholderia pseudomallei, Borrelia burgdorferi, Brucella melitensis, Chlamydia muridarum, Coxiella burnetii, Francisella tularensis, human Herpes virus 1 and 2, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Plasmodium falciparum, and Vaccinia virus) can be used as a vaccine, as diagnostic markers, and as therapeutic agents. In particularly preferred aspects, the antigens have quantified and known relative reactivities with respect to sera of a population infected with the pathogen, and have a known association with a disease parameter.
摘要:
Novel immunodominant antigenic proteins and peptides associated with associated with leptospirosis were identified using a proteome array based on expression of ORFs from a Leptospira genome. Compositions, methods, and uses of such antigenic proteins and peptides in the diagnosis and staging of leptospirosis infection and in compositions, methods, and uses of such antigenic is proteins and peptides in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines are disclosed.
摘要:
Contemplated compositions, devices, and methods are drawn to various antigens from Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) and Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2) and their use in vaccines, therapeutic agents, and various diagnostic tests. In particularly preferred aspects, the antigens are immunodominant and have quantified and known relative reactivities with respect to sera of a population infected with the pathogen, and/or have a known association with a disease parameter.
