Measles Virus as a Vector for the HPV Vaccine Development
Author(s): Narayana Penta*, Gaurav Gupta and Reinhard Glueck
The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine prevents infection with certain species of human papillomavirus
associated with the development of cervical cancer, genital warts and some less common cancers. But, the
development of vaccine that prevents HPV infection represents an important opportunity to prevent cervical cancer
whilst a therapeutic immunization would be valuable in treating premalignant and malignant disease. Attenuated
MV strains are highly efficient and safe vaccines, typically preventing recipients from Measles for their entire life.
To benefit from these extraordinary vaccination properties in the present study MV cDNA plasmids have been
constructed to produce precisely initiated and terminated MV anti-genome related to the Edmonston B vaccine
strains. These transgenes were expressed at different levels, according to their genomic position and were s.. View More»
