Francisella tularensis is a Category A select agent for which vaccine and countermeasure development are a priority. In the past eight years, renewed interest in this pathogen has led to the generation of an enormous amount of new data on both the pathogen itself and its interaction with host cells. This information has fostered the development of various vaccine candidates including acellular subunit, killed whole cell and live attenuated. This review summarizes the progress and promise of these various candidates.
土拉弗朗西斯菌是一种A类生物制剂,疫苗和应对措施的研发是其首要任务。在过去八年里,对这种病原体重新燃起的兴趣催生了大量关于病原体本身及其与宿主细胞相互作用的新数据。这些信息推动了多种候选疫苗的开发,包括无细胞亚单位疫苗、灭活全细胞疫苗和减毒活疫苗。本综述总结了这些不同候选疫苗的进展和前景。
