Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are associated with upper and lower respiratory illnesses, including severe infections causing hospitalization in both children...
To date there have been relatively few studies on genetic determinants of susceptibility to neonatal infection and many of these have methodological...
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) M protein is an important virulence factor and potential vaccine antigen, and constitutes the basis for strain typing (emm-typing).
Vaccine prevention of GAS infections and their immunological complications has been a goal of researchers for decades.
Bacillus cereus can cause serious infections in immunosuppressed patients. This population may be susceptible to B. cereus pneumonia, bacteremia, cellulitis,...
No currently licensed and available vaccine has been shown to provide broad protection against endemic MnB disease.
The desire for an effective vaccine arises from the large burden of disease caused by the bacterium, particularly rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease.
