Targeted Antigen Delivery: Bridging Innate and Adaptive Immunity

The most efficient way to mount a sustained immune response is to target antigens to antigen presenting cells that trigger both innate and adaptive immune responses. A comprehensive view of the current approaches to the design of new antigenic formulations will enhance our understanding and perspective of targeted immunotherapy. The aim of this Research Topic is to provide an overview of the currently adopted targeting strategies by a collection of articles on: 1.Novel approaches of antigen targeting for immunotherapeutic strategies against cancer and/or infectious diseases. 2. Diversity and biology of dendritic cell subsets in human and mouse. 3. Combined strategies for the delivery of antigens and adjuvant molecules that stimulate innate immune responses and their influence on the quality of immune responses. 4. Impact of the receptor mediate intracellular trafficking on antigen presentation.

Filamentous Bacteriophage in Bio/Nano/Technology, Bacterial Pathogenesis and Ecology

Filamentous phage (genus Inovirus) infect almost invariably Gram-negative bacteria. They are distinguished from all other bacteriophage not only by morphology, but also by the mode of their assembly, a secretion-like process that does not kill the host. “Classic” Escherichia colifilamentous phage Ff (f1, fd and M13) are used in display technology and bio/nano/technology, whereas filamentous phage in general have been put to use by their bacterial hosts for adaptation to environment, pathogenesis, biofilm formation, horizontal gene transfer and modulating genome stability. Many filamentous phage have a “symbiotic” life style that is often manifested by inability to form plaques, preve...

Life in Science

This book is a collection of stories, reflections and advice written by proficient scientists. They address the question of what doing science means to them, and describe attitudes and working practices that have proved effective and rewarding. The book is aimed in particular at young people who are attracted by science or already undertaking undergraduate studies, and who are considering making science their long-term profession. It will also be helpful and revealing to early-career scientists who are searching for their own best route to success. The book serves as a platform for experienced scientists to describe their original inclination, how that subjective disposition found its expres...

Nanotechnology Applications in Medicinal Plants and their Bionanocomposites

This book focuses on advances in nanomaterials and bionanocomposites for their applications in medicinal plants. Nanotechnology applications in medicinal plants is a recent addition to Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medical system. Nanotechnology offers immense opportunities for the improvement of quality of life through applications in nanomedicine and food systems. This book provides basic knowledge about the role of nanotechnology in developing a sustainable form of Ayurveda utilising bionanocomposites. It will be useful to students of nanosciences, Ayurvedic medicines, biological sciences, medical sciences, physics, chemistry, biotechnology and engineering sciences. The book is the first of its kind, and is based on interdisciplinary research from a variety of experts in their fields.

Innovation in Vaccinology

Prevention of infectious diseases by vaccination is one of the most significant achievements of modern medicine. During the 20th century, the average human life span in the developed world was about 70 years and it is expected to increase, with a significant portion of this increase directly attributed to vaccination. Since the first empiric vaccination trials, knowledge and technology have enormously evolved and new vaccination strategies are emerging on the market. Indeed, in spite of the great success, conventional vaccination strategies sometimes may result ineffective and, above all, may raise safety concerns. The aim of this book is to provide an overview of some of the technology plat...
