Universal vaccine to treat colds, flu and COVID developed – and a new study suggests it just might work
Pixel-Shot/Shutterstock.comVaccines have traditionally worked by teaching the immune system to recognise a specific virus or bacterium – in effect, showing it a wanted poster for a single suspect. But what if one vaccine could protect against dozens of different infections at once? Researchers have now developed a potential candidate for such a vaccine, and a new study in mice, published in the journal Science, has given promising results. What …
A team of US scientists managed to create a universal vaccine that protected vaccinated mice against several respiratory infections.
What if a simple nasal spray could immunize us against almost all winter infections? Flu, Covid, cold, bacteria and even allergies... U.S. researchers have developed an experimental vaccine capable of triggering a broad and lasting lung defense in the...
Researchers at Stanford University develop a formula that breaks with two centuries of vaccination by training the innate immune system to combat any respiratory threat Since Edward Jenner used cow pox to inoculate humans in 1790, vaccination has been based on an unmovable principle: specificity. Each vaccine is designed as a "robot portrait" of a particular pathogen—like the SARS-CoV-2 protein—for the body to learn to recognize it. However, as …
A nasal spray instead of many vaccinations? Professionals at Stanford University report on a novel vaccine that protects mice from viruses, bacteria and allergens at the same time – for months.
Tested in mice, this experimental spray triggers broad immunity against viruses, bacteria and allergens, without targeting any specific pathogens.
