Vaccine Vector Name |
Streptococcus gordonii vaccine vector |
Vector VO ID |
VO_0001036
|
Function |
The M6 protein from Streptococcus pyogenes is surface-localized with specific antigens on the surface of S. gordonii, which then expresses the antigen (Wang et al., 2013). |
Advantage |
As a regular resident of the oral cavity, a live,attenuated. gordonii strain is a good candidate for oral vaccine administration (Wang et al., 2013). Also, S. gordonii has been shown to activate antigen-presenting cells and induce their maturation (Mayer et al., 2009). Compared to Lactococcus lactis, S. gordonii is a superior vaccine vector for intestinal immunization (Lee et al., 2009). |
Disadvantage |
In order to elicit a necessary amount of cytokines, cytokines must be delivered externally because S. gordonii has been shown to be unable to elicit cytokines needed to suppress mucosal tolerance (Mayer et al., 2009) |
Description |
The S. gordonii M6 protein can be used to localize antigens, such as Sj-F1 of Schistosoma japonicum, on the surface of the bacterium, which induces an immune response against that antigen in the host (Wang et al., 2013). |
