This book is essential for anyone interested in vaccine development, as it highlights the unique advantages of viral vector vaccines in inducing strong, long-lasting immunity and provides an in-depth exploration of the technology and advances that are shaping the future of healthcare.
Viral vector vaccines have unique advantages over other vaccine platforms. These potent vaccines are able to induce long-lasting cellular responses, such as cytotoxic T lymphocytes that eradicate virus-infected cells. Viral vector-based vaccines use a harmless virus to deliver instructions for making antigens from the disease-causing virus into cells, inducing protective immunity against them. Unlike conventional antigen-containing vaccines, these vaccines harness the body’s natural defenses to produce antigens by using a virus modified to deliver the genetic code for an antigen. Viral Vectors for Vaccine Delivery provides a comprehensive overview of viral vectors and their applications in vaccine delivery. Its chapters explore various aspects of viral vector technology, from the basics of viral vector construction to the latest advances in gene editing and production.
