HPV vaccine. Human papillomavirus ( HPV) vaccines are vaccines that prevent infection by certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV). [19] Available HPV vaccines protect against either two, four, or nine types of HPV. [19] [20] All HPV vaccines protect against at least HPV types 16 and 18, which cause the greatest risk of cervical cancer. [19]

The HPV strains that Gardasil protects against are sexually transmitted, [14] specifically HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18. [15] [16] HPV types 16 and 18 cause an estimated 70% of cervical cancers, [17] [18] and are responsible for most HPV-induced anal, [19] vulvar, vaginal, [20] and penile cancer cases. [19]

The making of a DNA vaccine A DNA vaccine is a type of vaccine that transfects a specific antigen-coding DNA sequence into the cells of an organism as a mechanism to induce an immune response. DNA vaccines work by injecting genetically engineered plasmid containing the DNA sequence encoding the antigen(s) against which an immune response is sought, so the cells directly produce the antigen ...
Traditional vaccines against those viruses, such as the HPV vaccine and the hepatitis B vaccine, prevent those types of cancer. Other cancers are to some extent caused by bacterial infections (e.g. stomach cancer and Helicobacter pylori).
All known papillomavirus types infect a particular body surface, [2] typically the skin or mucosal epithelium of the genitals, anus, mouth, or airways. [8] For example, human papillomavirus (HPV) type 1 tends to infect the soles of the feet, and HPV type 2 the palms of the hands, where they may cause warts.
