Journal ArticleDOI

Expression patterns of NKG2A, KIR, and CD57 define a process of CD56dim NK-cell differentiation uncoupled from NK-cell education

TL;DR: It is shown that CD56(dim) NK cells continue to differentiate, and the associated functional imprint, occurs independently of NK-cell education by interactions with self-human leukocyte antigen class I ligands and is an essential part of the formation of human NK- cell repertoires.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oral Somatic Transgene Vaccination Using Attenuated S. typhimurium

TL;DR: A highly versatile system for antigen delivery, identification of protective antigens for vaccination, and efficient generation of antibodies against the product of open reading frames present on virtually any DNA segment is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Establishment of a Real-Time PCR-Based Approach for Accurate Quantification of Bacterial RNA Targets in Water, Using Salmonella as a Model Organism

TL;DR: It is the first time that RNA standards have been successfully used for a precise quantification of the number of RNA molecules in prokaryotes and demonstrates the potential of this approach for determining the presence and metabolic activity of pathogenic bacteria in environmental samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Humanized mice for modeling human infectious disease: challenges, progress, and outlook.

TL;DR: The potential and challenges of humanized mouse models for developing effective and affordable therapies and vaccines, which are desperately needed to combat these diseases, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene transfer in dendritic cells, induced by oral DNA vaccination with Salmonella typhimurium, results in protective immunity against a murine fibrosarcoma

TL;DR: It is shown here, for the first time, that DCs can be directly and specifically transduced in vivo such to induce DNA vaccination against tumors.
