摘要:
The invention relates to a microorganism with a nucleotide sequence coding for a cell antigen in which the following components are inserted and are expressible: I) a nucleotide sequence coding for at least one epitope of an antigen of a tumor cell and/or a nucleotide sequence for at least one epitope of an antigen that is specific for a tissue cell from which the tumor originates; II) an optional nucleotide sequence coding for a protein that stimulates cells of the immune system; IIIA) a nucleotide sequence for a transport system which makes it possible to express the expression product of components I) and, optionally, II) on the outer surface of the bacterium and/or secrete the expression product of component I) and, optionally, of component II); and/or IIIB) a nucleotide sequence for a protein used for lysing the microorganisms in the cytosol of mammalian cells and for intracellularly releasing plasmids which are contained in the lysed microorganisms; and IV) an activation sequence for expressing one or several of components I) to IIIB), said activation sequence being selected among the group consisting of an activation sequence which is capable of being activated in the microorganism, is tissue-cell-specific but not cell-specific. Each of components I) to IV) can be identically or differently arranged in an individual or multiple manner. Also disclosed are uses of such a microorganism for the production of a medicament.
摘要:
The invention relates to the use of a cell, which is charged with a micro-organism that contains foreign DNA, in particular a bacterial micro-organism, to produce a pharmaceutical composition. Preferably, the foreign DNA codes for a defined active agent and the pharmaceutical composition is designed for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of a disease that can be treated with said active agent.

Also disclosed are a process of manufacturing thereof, corresponding plasmids or expression vectors and uses of the microorganism as a medicament.
摘要:
A diagnosis device having an illumination system configured to produce white light along an illumination path, an observation system for observing the target region in a white-light and fluorescence mode, the observation system having an observation path having at least one first image sensor for receiving a white-light image and at least one second image sensor for receiving a fluorescence image, an observation spectral filter in the observation path are configured such that light in the spectral range of the fluorescence can be fed to the second image sensor while light in the spectral ranges outside of the fluorescence is blocked. An illumination spectral filter is arranged in the illumination path and having a characteristic of the observation spectral filter such that the target region is illuminated with the whole spectral range of the white light with the exception of the spectral range of the fluorescence to be observed.
