About this ebook
Vaccination has been established as an efficient procedure to prevent infections. Over the past few years, a new method of subunit vaccination has attracted the attention of immunologists. Despite its popularity, it is only recently that the basic mechanisms that drive the immune response to the encoded antigen have begun to unfold. The multidisciplinary approach of this book outlines the basic characteristics of gene (DNA) vaccination, the role of APCs or bone marrow derived cells in the induction of the immune response. It points out the potential applications for various infectious and allergic diseases and describes the multifaceted properties of DNA in initiating and determining the subsequent immune responses to the encoded antigen.
