Using Protozoan Surface Proteins for Effective Oral Vaccination

Lucía Lara Rupil et al. Trends Parasitol. 2020 Jan.

Abstract

The Global Vaccine Action Plan of the World Health Organization (WHO) calls for nonsyringe delivery mechanisms, thermostable vaccines, and new bioprocessing technologies as priority research areas. Here we discuss the use of protozoan surface proteins to develop a safe, stable, and efficient versatile oral vaccine platform.

Keywords: antimicrobial resistance; antitumor therapy; infectious diseases; oral vaccines; protozoan proteins; virus-like particles.
