Vaccination against the digestive enzyme Cathepsin B using a YS1646 <i>Salmonella enterica</i> Typhimurium vector provides almost complete protection against <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> challenge in a mouse model

2019-05-29

Abstract excerpt

Schistosoma mansoni threatens hundreds of millions of people in >50 countries. Schistosomulae migrate through the lung and adult worms reside adjacent to the intestinal mucosa. None of the candidate vaccines in current development is designed to elicit a mucosal response. We have repurposed an attenuated Salmonella enterica Typhimurium strain (YS1646) to produce such a vaccine targeting Cathepsin B (CatB), a dige...
