1,076 words (approx. 4.3 pages) | 8 sources | MLA | 2006 United States


Paper Summary:

The paper examines recent developments in the field of DNA vaccines. It discusses progress in vaccines against rabies, cancer and HIV / AIDS, as well as the role of the United Nations' Joint Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) in current medical studies.

From the Paper:

"Areas where the development of the DNA vaccine is concentrated are rabies, cancer and HIV. A DNA vaccine has been developed that protects monkeys from becoming infected with rabies. "DNA encodes for the surface glycoprotein of the rabies virus that induces high level of neutralizing antibodies." This is promising, since the DNA vaccine is less expensive, easy to use, and does not require refrigeration. As a result, the vaccine could be supplied worldwide, especially in areas where rabies is an epidemic."
