}The spread of dengue virus (DV) via its Aedes mosquito vector throughout most of the tropics has led to a worldwide resurgence of epidemic dengue, including dengue hemorrhagic fever. For the first time in 60 years, the pipeline of dengue vaccines looks promising. Strains of each of the 4 DV serotypes, attenuated by passage in tissue culture or by recombinant DNA technology, have been formulated into tetravalent vaccines and have entered successful phase 1 and 2 clinical trials in the United…

VSV is a promising platform to test as a DENV vaccine and perhaps against others Flaviviridae, as VSV has been successfully used as vaccine vectors for several viruses to induce strong humoral and cellular immune responses.
