Noninvasive vaccination: from the perspective of sonoporation

Vaccine. 2008 Aug 5;26(33):4109-10. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2008.04.049. Epub 2008 May 9.

Abstract

Previous noninvasive vaccine submission approaches including respiratory tract-based methods are limited to specific pathogens. Recent developments on ultrasound biology suggest that ultrasound-mediated molecule submission (sonoporation) could be an effective noninvasive approach for gene therapy as well as drug submission. Here we discuss the potential application on sonoporation on vaccine submission.
