Edible Vaccines for Autoimmune Disease | Genetics

Transgenic plants expressing vaccine antigens can be used to tackle autoimmune disĀ­ease like diabetes. Insulin dependent diabetes melites is an autoimmune disease resulted in the destruction of insulin producing pancreatic cells. Disease is triggered by involvement of both humoral and cell mediated immunity. The type I diabetes by autoimmunity is due to the inadvert attack on insulin producing cells by [...]
