Fauci, M.D., National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health n 1981 the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) recognized the critical role vaccines Ihave played in preserving human life and human health by initiating the Program for the Accelerated Development of Vaccines. The goal of this program was to build on 20th century vaccine triumphs against such important infectious diseases as diphtheria, measles, pertussis, poliomyelitis, tetanus, yellow fever, and others. Conceived of by NIAID scientist John R. Seal (1912–1984), the new program was ably directed for 6 critical early years by William S. (Bill) Jordan (1917–2008). After retirement in 1987, Dr. Jordan stayed involved with NIAID, and particularly in vaccine research, for another 20 years, time enough to teach and influence a new generation of NIAID scientists who today continue the tradi- tion in support of the vaccine goals first articulated in 1981. Progress in vaccine development is periodically reviewed and published by NIAID scientists in what has come to be called, with the affection and admiration of his colleagues, The Jordan Report. Drs. Seal and Jordan are sadly no longer with us, but after an eventful 30 years the initiative they started remains healthy and vigorous. As discussed in greater depth in this report, progress in vaccine development has moved continuously forward, sometimes leaping ahead while at other times seeming to crawl. Looking back at the challenges of 30 years ago, however, it is undeniable that there have been remarkable achievements. We now have licensed vaccines against Haemophilus influenzae type B and pneumococcal types that cause high childhood morbidity and mortality, against hepatitis A and B, against rotaviruses, and against varicella. We also have improved vaccines against such diseases as influenza and pertussis, and passive immunotherapy against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in newborns. In addition to technological advances in making vaccines, including protein conjugation of bacterial polysaccharides, Top: A grade school boy, held by a young woman wearing a safety patrol belt, DNA vaccines, viral chimeras, viral vectors, and other novel is about to receive an immunization from a nurse (circa 1940).

  • Pichia Pastoris (Komagataella Phaffii) As a Cost-Effective Tool for Vaccine
    bioengineering Review Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii) as a Cost-Effective Tool for Vaccine Production for Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) Salomé de Sá Magalhães and Eli Keshavarz-Moore * Department of Biochemical Engineering, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Vaccination is of paramount importance to global health. With the advent of the more recent pandemics, the urgency to expand the range has become even more evident. However, the potential limited availability and affordability of vaccines to resource low- and middle-income countries has created a need for solutions that will ensure cost-effective vaccine production methods for these countries. Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) (also known as Komagataella phaffii) is one of the most promising candidates for expression of heterologous proteins in vaccines development. It combines the speed and ease of highly efficient prokaryotic platforms with some key capabilities of mammalian systems, potentially reducing manufacturing costs. This review will examine the latest developments in P. pastoris from cell engineering and design to industrial production systems with focus on vaccine development and with reference to specific key case studies.

  • The Search for a Schistosomiasis Vaccine: Australia’S Contribution
    Review The Search for a Schistosomiasis Vaccine: Australia’s Contribution Donald P. McManus Molecular Parasitology Laboratory, Infectious Diseases Division, QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, Brisbane 4006, Australia; [email protected]; Tel.: +61-418-744-006 Abstract: Schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma, results in considerable human morbidity in sub-Saharan Africa, in particular, but also parts of the Middle East, South America, and Southeast Asia. The anti-schistosome drug praziquantel is efficacious and safe against the adult parasites of all Schistosoma species infecting humans; however, it does not prevent reinfection and the development of drug resistance is a constant concern. The need to develop an effective vaccine is of great importance if the health of many in the developing world is to be improved. Indeed, vaccination, in combination with other public health measures, can provide an invaluable tool to achieve lasting control, leading to schistosomiasis elimination. Australia has played a leading role in schistosomiasis vaccine research over many years and this review presents an overview of some of the significant contributions made by Australian scientists in this important area.

Received: 29 October 2013; in revised form: 29 October 2013 / Accepted: 9 December 2013 / Published: 27 December 2013 Abstract: Interrogating immune correlates of infection risk for efficacious and non-efficacious HIV-1 vaccine clinical trials have provided hypotheses regarding the mechanisms of induction of protective immunity to HIV-1. To date, there have been six HIV-1 vaccine efficacy trials (VAX003, Vaxgen, Inc., San Francisco, CA, USA), VAX004 (Vaxgen, Inc.), HIV-1 Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN) 502 (Step), HVTN 503 (Phambili), RV144 (sponsored by the U.S. Military HIV Research Program, MHRP) and HVTN 505). Cellular, humoral, host genetic and virus sieve analyses of these human clinical trials each can provide information that may point to potentially protective mechanisms for vaccine-induced immunity. Critical to staying on the path toward development of an efficacious vaccine is utilizing information from previous human and non-human primate studies in concert with new discoveries of basic HIV-1 host-virus interactions. One way that past discoveries from correlate analyses can lead to novel inventions or new pathways toward vaccine efficacy is to examine the intersections where different components of the correlate analyses overlap (e.g., virus sieve analysis combined with humoral correlates) that can point to mechanistic hypotheses.
