Abstract:
Disclosed herein are immunogenic compositions comprising one or more inactivated dengue viruses and one or more inactivated non-dengue flaviviruses and methods of making and using thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to attenuated, immunogenic West Nile virus chimeras built on a dengue virus backbone for the production of immunogenic, live, attenuated West Nile virus vaccines.
Abstract:
The present invention provides vaccine compositions of attenuated dengue-2 virus. More specifically, the attenuated virus is produced by serial passage in PDK cells. The invention also provides methods for stimulating the immune system of an individual to induce protection against dengue-2 virus by administration of attenuated dengue-2 virus.
Abstract:
The present invention provides vaccine compositions of attenuated dengue virus. More specifically, the attenuated virus is produced by serial passage in PDK cells. The invention also provides methods for stimulating the immune system of an individual to induce protection against all four dengue virus serotypes by administration of attenuated dengue-1, dengue-2, dengue-3, and dengue-4 virus.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for replicating virus to high titer in cultured mammalian cells by infecting the mammalian cells with the high titer virus strain to obtain infected cells, specifically, attenuated dengue virus strains of serotype 1, 2, 3, and 4. The resulting replicated virus is suitable for use in vaccines and vaccination methods which are also provided by the invention.
Abstract:
The present invention provides vaccine compositions of attenuated dengue-4 virus. More specifically, the attenuated virus is produced by serial passage in PDK cells. The invention also provides methods for stimulating the immune system of an individual to induce protection against dengue-4 virus by administration of attenuated dengue-4 virus.
Abstract:
The present invention provides immunogenic compositions of attenuated dengue-1 virus. More specifically, the attenuated virus is produced by serial passage in PDK cells. The invention also provides methods for stimulating the immune system of an individual to induce protection against dengue-1 virus by administration of attenuated dengue-1 virus.
