At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, VITT emerged as a new disease following adenovirus vector-based vaccines—notably the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine. VITT was found to be caused by an ...

One avenue for new vaccine development is mucosal vaccines. In theory, dosing the vaccine directly into the respiratory tract allows for robust antibody and T-cell responses where SARS-CoV-2 generally ...

An upside of using vectored vaccines is that they are easy and relatively cheap to make. The adenovirus vector, for example, can be grown up in cells and used for various vaccines. Once you make a ...

Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS) is a rare yet serious condition linked to certain COVID-19 vaccines, notably adenovirus vector vaccines like AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson's ...

An inhalable version of a single-shot, adenovirus-based viral vector vaccine might provide a new option for COVID-19 vaccination. In October 2021, the World Health Organization set a target for ...

How it works Convidencia is a viral vector vaccine using adenovirus five. With a viral vector, there is essentially a viral particle, which is programmed not to replicate. So, what is administered ...

In 2012, researchers at the University of Oxford created ChAdOx1, a virus vector vaccine based on a modified simian adenovirus. The researchers chose a simian adenovirus because “if you use a ...

This cassette is then transferred to the adenovirus vector plasmid (pAdeno X, Clontech Laboratories or pAd5F35, The Journal of Gene Medicine Volume 6, Issue 6 , Pages 631 - 641). The adenovirus vector ...

The recombinant adenovirus vector (ChAdOx1) was chosen to generate ... so cannot cause an ongoing infection in the vaccinated individual. Vaccines made from the ChAdOx1 virus have been given ...

The Gene Vector Core was founded in 1997 as the Adenovirus Vector Production Core. Over the years, we have extended our expertise to other popular viral vector systems. Our core has been one of BCM ...
