Currently, there is a focus on both the development of a novel concept in vaccine designing and the parallel study of the associated immune mechanisms. To further our understanding of the healthcare field, a variety of promising designs have been introduced for in-depth study. The designs were developed to include the mKRAS-specific amphiphile vaccine, which targets a specific mutation in the KRAS gene in addition to the multi-antigen targeted DNA vaccine, which aims to stimulate an immune response against multiple cancer antigens. Furthermore, later designs of vaccines were introduced based on the development of peptide-based cancer vaccines, mRNA-based vaccines, cell-based vaccines, and engineered bacterial vectors using an oral Salmonella-based vaccine. The study presents the concept on which the new vaccine is based and discusses the up-to-date immunological manifestations of these designed vaccines.","PeriodicalId":495766,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Pancreatic Disorders and Treatment","volume":"28 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140734648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
