- Abstract
- Tuberculosis (TB) is a re-emerging disease that is considered a major human health
priority aswell as an important disease of livestock. TB is also a zoonosis, and Mycobacterium
tuberculosis and M. bovis, the human and bovine causative agents, respectively,
are very closely related. Protection against TB is essentially achieved through vaccination
with the Bacille Calmetle-Guerin (BCG) strain of M. bovis. Protection is, however,
incomplete, and novel improved vaccines are currently under investigation. Production
of protective antigens in transgenic plants, or \"pharming,\" is a promising emerging
approach, and a zoonosis-like TB is a good model for investigating the potential of
this approach. Pharma-Planta, a European Commission-funded project and consortium,
was set up to address this topic, within which a component is aimed at assessing
the production efficacy and stability of the TB antigens in different compartments of
the plant cell. This article ismeant to introduce this promising approach for veterinary
medicine by describing the ongoing project and its specific genetic engineering strategy. (literal)
