Scope note: Vectores de ADN recombinante que codifican antígenos y se administran para la prevención o el tratamiento de enfermedades. Las células anfitrionas toman el ADN, expresan al antígeno y lo presentan al sistema inmunitario de forma similar a lo que ocurriría durante una infección natural. Esto induce una respuesta inmunitaria, de tipo humoral y celular, contra los antígenos codificados. Al vector se lo denomina "ADN desnudo" ya que no son necesarias formulaciones complejas o agentes para suministrarlo; el plásmido se inyecta con solución salina u otros tampones.

Scope note: Recombinant DNA vectors encoding antigens administered for the prevention or treatment of disease. The host cells take up the DNA, express the antigen, and present it to the immune system in a manner similar to that which would occur during natural infection. This induces humoral and cellular immune responses against the encoded antigens. The vector is called naked DNA because there is no need for complex formulations or delivery agents; the plasmid is injected in saline or other buffers.
