The recent successful immunization of experimental animals using nucle ic acids has provided a revolutionary new approach in vaccinology, in this article, Gory Waine and Don McManus examine the potential of nucl eic acid vaccines for their effectiveness not only against infectious and parasitic organisms exhibiting on intracellular Phase during their life cycle, but also against parasitic helminths, whose life cycle st ages are either predominantly or completely extracellular.
