A novel concept for treatment and vaccination against Covid‐19 with an inhaled chitosan‐coated DNA vaccine encoding a secreted spike protein portion
8 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
A novel concept in DNA vaccine design is the creation of an inhaled DNA plasmid construct containing a portion of the coronavirus spike protein for treatment and vaccination. The secretion of a spike protein portion will function as a competitive antagonist by interfering with the binding of coronavirus to the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. The secreted protein binding to the ACE2 receptor...
