Recent Mechanistic Insights on Glycoconjugate Vaccines and Future Perspectives
10 Jul 2013
Abstract excerpt
Vaccination is a key strategy for the control of various infectious diseases. Many pathogens, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae , Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), and Neisseria meningitidis produce on their surfaces dense and complex glycan structures, which represent an optimal target for eliciting carbohydrate specific antibodies able to confer protection against those bacteria.
