Neglected tropical diseases typically affect low- to middle income patients; drug and vaccine development by vaccine industries is impaired due to the lack of prospects for financial gain. Streptococcus pyogenes, also termed Group A Streptococcus (GAS), is a human restricted pathogen responsible for a large variety of diseases, such as Acute Rheumatic Fever (ARF) and Rheumatic Heart Disea…
The emerging SARS-CoV-2 virus appeared in China and easily spread around the world with a tremendous lethality. In less than three months of its identification, it has already caused more than 30,000 deaths worldwide with an increasing number of fatalities. As it is a new virus introduced into the human population, therefore there is no prior immunity; it has easy spread and lethality var…
Dengue is a disease of viral etiology, triggered by the Dengue virus (DENV) of the genus Flavivirus, of the Flaviviridae family. Regarding variability and pathogenicity, four antigenically distinct serotypes are known, DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4. The disease presents symptoms that can be considered classic with severe headache and muscle and joint pain, for example, lasting 5 to 7 …
Vaccines are one of the most efficient tools used for public health in Brazil and around the world. The same can be said about monoclonal antibodies, even though they are less known by the population. Considering the growing wave of misinformation, communicating science becomes even more important, especially on social networks, which can and should be used to disseminate reliable data. I…

At the end of December 2019, the WHO (World Health Organization) was alerted about several cases of pneumonia in the city of Wuhan, China, caused by a new coronavirus that had never been identified in humans. Approximately one month later, on January 30, 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus infection as a public health emergency and on March 11, 2020, Covid-19 (disease…

Vaccines have revolutionized modern medicine by protecting individuals through immune responses. However, differences in immune mechanisms across species, particularly between humans and animal models, pose challenges in translating preclinical findings to human applications. Using RNAseq and microarray data from different studies, this project aims to analyze the bridge in vaccine-induce…
The Zika virus (ZIKV), a reemerging flavivirus, poses a significant public health threat primarily due to the high morbidity associated with congenital infection. Despite its severity, there are currently no licensed vaccines or specific therapies, complicating disease control efforts, especially in regions where other arboviruses are prevalent. While ZIKV symptoms are often mild and rese…
