Recent Research on Adenovirus-Vectored Vaccines

Dear Colleagues,

As we move forward from the COVID-19 pandemic and focus on both emerging and previously recognized pathogens, we invite you to contribute to a Special Issue on ‘Recent Research on Adenovirus-Vectored Vaccines’. The pandemic has provided valuable insights into the development of vaccines against coronaviruses and other viruses. Replication-deficient viral vaccines have been shown to effectively induce neutralizing antibodies and cellular immune responses, thereby providing adequate immune protection. This Special Issue is an opportunity to address these experiences. We are interested in studies that examine the persistence of immune responses after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2, other pathogens, or cancers, especially in comparison to other vaccine platforms. We also welcome comparisons among different types of adenovirus vaccines, including replicating, single-cycle, replication-defective, and helper-dependent variants and different serotypes.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
