Development of multi-epitope chimeric antigens for scrub typhus diagnostics and vaccines: An in-silico investigation
2022-03-31
Abstract excerpt
Scrub typhus is a zoonotic bacterial disease caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi and accounts for up to 20% of common febrile illnesses and hospitalizations. The main obstacle to vaccine development is the lack of identification of relevant immunodominant antigens that stimulate broad-spectrum immune responses, including antibody, CD4 + T cells, and CD8 + T cells production. We examined the 56-kDa type-specific cell...
