  2. Viral vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_vector

    Viral vector. A 2021 U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention poster on the COVID-19 viral vector vaccines. Viral vectors are modified viruses designed to deliver genetic material into cells. This process can be performed inside an organism or in cell culture.

  3. Viral vector vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_vector_vaccine

    A viral vector vaccine is a vaccine that uses a viral vector to deliver genetic material ( DNA) that can be transcribed by the recipient's host cells as mRNA coding for a desired protein, or antigen, to elicit an immune response. [1] As of April 2021, six viral vector vaccines, four COVID-19 vaccines and two Ebola vaccines, have been authorized ...

  4. Disease vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disease_vector

    Disease vector. A mosquito shortly after obtaining blood from a human (note the droplet of blood plasma being expelled as the mosquito squeezes out excess water). Mosquitos are a vector for several diseases, including malaria. In epidemiology, a disease vector is any living [1] agent that carries and transmits an infectious pathogen such as a ...

  5. Arbovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbovirus

    Infectious disease. Arbovirus is an informal name for any virus that is transmitted by arthropod vectors. The term arbovirus is a portmanteau word ( ar thropod- bo rne virus ). [1] Tibovirus ( ti ck- bo rne virus) is sometimes used to more specifically describe viruses transmitted by ticks, a superorder within the arthropods. [2]

  6. Transmission of COVID-19 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_of_COVID-19

    The transmission of COVID-19 is the passing of coronavirus disease 2019 from person to person. COVID-19 is mainly transmitted when people breathe in air contaminated by droplets / aerosols and small airborne particles containing the virus. Infected people exhale those particles as they breathe, talk, cough, sneeze, or sing.

  7. Pathogen transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogen_transmission

    Pathogen transmission. In medicine, public health, and biology, transmission is the passing of a pathogen causing communicable disease from an infected host individual or group to a particular individual or group, regardless of whether the other individual was previously infected. [1] The term strictly refers to the transmission of ...

  8. Adeno-associated virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adeno-associated_virus

    Replication of the virus can also vary in one cell type, depending on the cell's current cell cycle phase. [101] The characteristic feature of the adeno-associated virus is a deficiency in replication and thus its inability to multiply in unaffected cells. Adeno-associated virus spreads by co-infecting a cell with a helper virus.

  9. Transduction (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transduction_(genetics)

    Transduction is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a cell by a virus or viral vector. [1] An example is the viral transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another and hence an example of horizontal gene transfer. [2] Transduction does not require physical contact between the cell donating the DNA and the cell receiving the DNA ...
