Abstract: An immunogenic composition comprising: a) one or more Plasmodium-derived ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or immunogenic fragment thereof which has a sequence which is at least about 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99% or 100% identical to a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or an immunogenic fragment of a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein recited in FIG. 1; or a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or peptide or immunogenic fragment thereof as recited in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3; and/or b) a polynucleotide encoding one or more protein, peptide or immunogenic fragment of a); wherein the immunogenic composition is for use in eliciting an immune response in a subject to treat or prevent malaria. Also provided are Plasmodium-derived ETRAMPs and/or histones, or immunogenic fragments thereof, for use in eliciting an immune response in a subject, preferably to treat or prevent malaria.

Abstract: The present invention concerns to recombinant influenza viruses and modified Vaccinia Ankara viruses (MVA), and to a process for construction of recombinant influenza viruses and modified vaccinia Ankara viruses (MVA) with genes that encode for the T. gondii parasite SAGI (MVA) and SAG2 (MVA and influenza) proteins, by means of a homologous recombination technique between two transfer vectors (for construction of MVA virus) and reverse genetics (for construction of influenza virus). Additionally, the present invention describes a vaccine composition using recombinant influenza viruses and modified vaccinia Ankara viruses (MVA), or recombinant adenoviruses and modified vaccinia Ankara viruses (MVA), for immunization against infections caused by the T. gondii parasite.

Abstract: The present invention refers to the recombinant vaccine against canine visceral leishmaniasis containing the recombinant A2 protein and saponin, monophosphoryl lipid A, or aluminum hydroxide plus CpG as an adjuvant, allowing the distinction between vaccinated and infected animals through conventional ELISA or immunofluorescence tests that employ antigens of promastigote forms of Leishmania.

Abstract: Recombinant, attenuated parasites are transformed or transfected with nucleic acid molecules which provoke an immunostimulatory and protective response in subjects. Preferably, the parasite is Trypanosoma cruzi, especially strain CL-14, and the transforming nucleic acid molecule encodes for a cancer testis antigen, such as NY-ESO-1.

Abstract: This invention refers to the construction of recombinant adenovirus with genes that codify for T. gondii SAG1, SAG2 and SAG3, through a homologue recombination technique between two vectors. A first vector that serves as transference vector of genes and a second vector that bears the adenoviral receptor genome of these genes. The invention is also related to the use of recombinant adenovirus in a vaccine composition to obtain the immunization against infections caused by T. gondii parasite.
