Vaccine value profile for Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi A
Vaccine. 2023 Nov 3;41 Suppl 2:S114-S133. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.01.054. Epub 2023 Oct 6.ABSTRACTIn Asia, there are an estimated 12 million annual cases of enteric fever, a potentially fatal systemic bacterial infection caused by Salmonella enterica serovars Typhi (STy) and Paratyphi A (SPA). The recent availability of typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCV), an increasing incidence of disease caused by SPA and growing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) across the genus Salmonella makes a bivalent STy/SPA vaccine a useful public health proposition. The uptake of a stand-alone paratyphoid vaccine is likely low thus, there is a pi...

Trends in antimicrobial resistance amongst < i > Salmonella < /i > Paratyphi A isolates in Bangladesh: 1999 –2021
ConclusionsSalmonella Paratyphi A has remained susceptible to most antibiotics, unlikeSalmonella Typhi, despite widespread usage of many antibiotics in Bangladesh. The data can guide evidence-based policy decisions for empirical treatment of paratyphoid fever, especially in the post typhoid vaccine era, and with the availability of new paratyphoid diagnostics.

Salmonella delivers H9N2 influenza virus antigens via a prokaryotic and eukaryotic dual-expression vector and elicits bivalent protection against avian influenza and fowl typhoid
Dev Comp Immunol. 2023 Sep 13:105058. doi: 10.1016/j.dci.2023.105058. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe H9N2 avian influenza virus significantly affects the health of poultry and humans. We identified a prokaryotic and eukaryotic dual-expression vector system, pJHL270, that can provide simultaneous MHC class I and II stimulation of the host immune system, and we designed vaccine antigens by selecting the consensus HA1 sequence and M2e antigens from H9N2 virus circulating in South Korea from 2000 to 2021. The genes were cloned into the pJHL270 vector, and the cloned plasmid was delivered by a live-attenuated Salmonella Gall...
