  • the particles that carry their genetic code as either DNA or RNA (meaning ribonucleic acid, similar to DNA but a long, single-stranded chain of cells that processes protein and carries genetic information) are inert until they infect a living cell. (oup.com)
  • Viruses contain a core of genes made up of DNA or RNA wrapped in a layer of protein. (twournal.com)
  • Some traditional vaccines use a weakened virus, while others only use a critical part of the virus's protein coat. (twournal.com)
  • The search specifically identifies the DNA of the gene that produces the ricin protein. (cdc.gov)
  • The data from clinical trials also shows that the vaccine is effective in older populations who made up 34% of study subjects in stage 3 clinical trials. (who.int)
  • In the last few years, mRNA used as a vaccine with rapid, scalable, and cost-effective production during the corona pandemic [2]. (researchgate.net)
  • The Ebola virus is among the deadliest viruses on the planet, killing up to 90% of those infected, and there are no approved vaccines or effective therapies. (eurekalert.org)
  • In addition, the vaccine has been shown to be safe in simian HIV-infected rhesus macaques ( 6 ) and was not neurovirulent after intrathalamic inoculation into macaques ( 7 ). (cdc.gov)
  • For instance, through commitment with the Ebola reaction structure in Liberia, research proposition were confirmed that included local area and logical contribution as well as the improvement of framework to lead that exploration. (alliedacademies.org)
  • Since September, Liberia's Montserrado County, home to about 1.5 million people, has seen a 73 percent decline in admissions to Ebola treatment units, a 58 percent decline in blood samples testing positive for Ebola and a 53 percent decline in the number of bodies collected, the CDC found.

  • WHO publishes Interim recommendations for the use of the Janssen COVID-19) vaccine, see link. (who.int)
  • The World Health Organization listed the vaccine developed by Janssen (the vaccine making subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson) for emergency use in all countries and for COVAX roll-out. (who.int)
  • Previous scientific research has shown the amount of aluminum exposure in people who follow the recommended vaccine schedule is low and is not readily absorbed by the body. (cdc.gov)
  • And no…the individuals whose tumors were found to contain SV40 DNA had no possible exposure to SV40 other than the polio vaccine. (truthsnitch.com)
  • The results showed that INO-4201 can elicit strong humoral and cellular responses, restoring antibody titers to protect against Ebola. (clinicaltrialsarena.com)
  • INOVIO has partnered with Beijing Advaccine and the International Vaccine Institute to advance clinical trials of INO-4800 in China and South Korea, respectively. (ivi.int)
  • Last month, Inovio also announced early data from another DNA vaccine targeting the Ebola virus. (clinicaltrialsarena.com)
  • Advantages of DNA vaccines include the ability to rapidly test multiple candidate antigen designs," they said. (cosmosmagazine.com)
  • Once taken up by the host cells, the cells use the DNA to synthesise the pathogenic proteins, recognising it as foreign and triggering a protective immune response. (cosmosmagazine.com)
  • Some vaccines that are made from weakened or killed germs contain naturally occurring adjuvants and help the body produce a strong protective immune response. (cdc.gov)
  • There are currently no approved drugs or protective vaccines for the virus, but early care can improve survival. (medlineplus.gov)
  • A nasal vaccine against Ebola has been shown to protect monkeys against the virus for over a year after administering it. (ibtimes.co.uk)
  • While many vaccines are created using the tissue of various animals (cows, monkeys, chickens to name a few) and animal products (such as eggs), the use of tissue from aborted babies is superior for a number of reasons. (truthsnitch.com)
  • Another Ebola vaccine, developed by NewLink Genetics, is also being tested in a human clinical trial. (livescience.com)
  • This is the 2nd study of INO-4700 (GLS-5300) in a clinical trial, the first being a 75-person study (MERS-001) of vaccine administered intramuscularly and followed by electroporation at either 0.67, 2 or 6 mg. (ivi.int)
