Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to methods of treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease or symptoms of Alzheimer's disease in a subject by administering to the subject an active agent that includes an adenovirus-36 E4orf1 protein, a nucleic acid encoding an adenovirus-36 E4orfl protein, or combinations thereof. Additional embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to the active agents of the present disclosure for use in the treatment or prevention of Alzheimer's disease or symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.

The invention relates to a biomolecule agent for inducing specific immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome virus SARS-CoV-2, in liquid form, which contains a single active component, comprising the expression vector including either: the genome of the recombinant strain of human adenovirus serotype 26 or 5, wherein the E1 and E3 regions are deleted, the vector with an integrated expression cassette is selected from SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, or SEQ ID NO:3; or the recombinant strain of simian adenovirus serotype 25, wherein the E1 and E3 regions are deleted, the vector with an integrated expression cassette selected from SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:2, or SEQ ID NO:3. The recombinant strain of human adenovirus serotype 26 may include the ORF6-Ad26 region replaced by ORF6-Ad5.

A buffer solution of the agent in liquid form contains the following, by mass %: tris from 0.1831 to 0.3432; sodium chloride from 0.3313-0.6212; sucrose from 3.7821-7.0915; magnesium chloride hexahydrate from 0.0154-0.0289; EDTA from 0.0029-0.0054; polysorbate-80 from 0.0378-0.0709; ethanol 95% from 0.0004-0.0007; and water to fill.

The agent can be administered via intranasal and/or intramuscular routes. The invention promotes humoral and cell-mediated immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 virus among broad strata of the population.

Methods for generating immune responses using adenovirus vectors that allow multiple vaccinations with the same adenovirus vector and vaccinations in individuals with preexisting immunity to adenovirus are provided.

Methods for generating immune responses using adenovirus vectors that allow multiple vaccinations with the same adenovirus vector and vaccinations in individuals with preexisting immunity to adenovirus are provided.

Methods for generating immune responses using adenovirus vectors that allow multiple vaccinations with the same adenovirus vector and vaccinations in individuals with preexisting immunity to adenovirus are provided.

There is provided inter alia an isolated polynucleotide, wherein the polynucleotide encodes a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of: (a) a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 1, (b) a functional derivative of a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the functional derivative has an amino acid sequence which is at least 80% identical over its entire length to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and (c) a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 3.

Disclosed herein a unique cell line system to generate a novel bovine adenovirus vector that provides more gene insertion capabilities and better immunogenicity for inserted antigens. The unique cell line is used for generating and growing of the new adenovirus vectors for gene delivery or recombinant vaccine production.

Immunogenic compositions comprising viral vectors and surfactants are provided. Methods for administration and preparation of such compositions are also provided.

Disclosed herein are compositions that include modified adenoviruses. Also disclosed are nucleotides, cells, and methods associated with the compositions including their use as vaccines. Also disclosed herein are viral vectors using TET promoter system and methods of producing viruses having the same.

The invention relates to an adenoviral-based biological delivery and expression system for use in the treatment or prevention of osteoathritis in human or mammalian joints by long-term inducible gene expression of human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (II-1 Ra) in synovial cells, comprising a helper-dependent adenoviral vector containing a nucleic acid sequence encoding for human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (II-1 Ra), left and right inverted terminal repeats (L ITR and R ITR), the adenoviral packaging signal and non-viral, non-coding stuffer nucleic acid sequences, wherein the expression of the human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (II-1 Ra) gene within synovial cells is regulated by an inflammation-inducible promoter.
