Journal Article
Karyal, C., Palazi, P., Hughes, J., Griffiths, R. C., Persaud, R. R., Tighe, P. J., …Griffin, R. (2021). Mimicking native display of cd0873 on liposomes augments its potency as an oral vaccine against clostridioides difficile. Vaccines, 9(12), Article 1453. https://doi.org/10.3390/vaccines9121453

Mucosal vaccination aims to prevent infection mainly by inducing secretory IgA (sIgA) antibody, which neutralises pathogens and enterotoxins by blocking their attachment to epithelial cells. We previously demonstrated that encapsulated protein antige...

Colonisation factor cd0873, an attractive oral vaccine candidate against clostridioides difficile (2021)
Journal Article
Karyal, C., Hughes, J., Kelly, M. L., Cockayne, A., Luckett, J. C., Kaye, P. V., …Griffin, R. (2021). Colonisation factor cd0873, an attractive oral vaccine candidate against clostridioides difficile. Microorganisms, 9(2), Article 306. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms9020306

Clostridioides difficile is the main cause of health-care-associated infectious diarrhoea. Toxins, TcdA and TcdB, secreted by this bacterium damage colonic epithelial cells and in severe cases this culminates in pseudomembranous colitis, toxic megaco...
