VIRUS-LIKE PARTICLES WHICH CAN BE USED IN THE TREATMENT OF ALLERGIES
The invention relates to a virus-like particle comprising an allergen and an immunoregulatory molecule exposed on its surface. The invention also relates to the use of said particle in the treatment of an allergy.
VLP-based bivalent Ebola vaccines and methods of making and using same
Disclosed herein are virus-like particle (VLP)-based bivalent vaccine compositions. The compositions may comprise a spherical retroviral Group—specific Antigen (“Gag”) protein core and at least two Ebola glycoproteins. The at least two Ebola glycoproteins may be located at the exterior surface of the spherical Gag protein core, such that the VLP-based vaccine presents at least two Ebola glycoprotein antigens. In one aspect, the at least two Ebola glycoproteins are a Zaire (EBOV) glycoprotein, and a Sudan (SUDV) glycoprotein.
Methods and products for genetic engineering
The present invention relates to a virus-derived particle comprising one or more Cas protein(s), as well as to kits and methods using the same for altering a target nucleic acid.
IMMUNOTHERAPEUTIC COMPOSITIONS
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods useful for treating Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) which comprise virus-like particles (VLPs) comprising murine leukemia virus (MLV) core proteins and the human cytomegalovirus epitopes, gB and pp65, formulated with an adjuvant comprising a saponin and a TLR4 agonist.
IMMUNOTHERAPEUTIC COMPOSITIONS FOR TREATMENT OF GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods useful for treating Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), e.g., compositions comprising virus-like particles (VLPs) comprising Moloney Murine leukemia virus (MMLV) core proteins and the human cytomegalovirus epitopes, gB and pp65, formulated with GM-CSF, which, at dose of at least 10 g gB/pp65Gag, reverse dysregulation of anti-HCMV immunity in GBM patients.
VIRUS-LIKE PARTICLES WHICH CAN BE USED IN THE TREATMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES
The invention relates to a virus-like particle comprising an autoantigen and an immunoregulatory molecule exposed on its surface. The invention also relates to the use of said particle in the treatment of an autoimmune disease.
PSGL-1 (P-SELECTIN GLYCOPROTEIN LIGAND-1) TO INACTIVATE ALL ENVELOPED VIRUSES FOR PRODUCING LIVE-ATTENUATED VACCINES
Embodiments relate to a method comprising (a) expressing a vector comprising a PSGL-1 (P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1) or a mutant thereof in a VPC (virus producing cell); and blocking a virus infection by inactivating an infectivity of a released virions from the VPC; or (b) expressing a glycoprotein or a mutant thereof in the VPC; blocking the virus infection by preventing binding of the released virions to a target cell; inactivating infectivity of the released virions; and targeting a viral infection. Other embodiments relate to (1) a broad-spectrum anti-viral product comprising: a vector expressing a glycoprotein or a mutant thereof in a VPC; and blocking a virus infection by inactivating infectivity of a released virion from the VPC; and (2) a vaccine comprising a viral particle is configured to a live attenuated or an inactivated or a non-infectious, wherein the viral particle are produced in a VPC.

Disclosed herein are virus-like particle (VLP)-based bivalent vaccine compositions. The compositions may comprise a spherical retroviral Groupspecific Antigen (Gag) protein core and at least two Ebola glycoproteins. The at least two Ebola glycoproteins may be located at the exterior surface of the spherical Gag protein core, such that the VLP-based vaccine presents at least two Ebola glycoprotein antigens. In one aspect, the at least two Ebola glycoproteins are a Zaire (EBOV) glycoprotein, and a Sudan (SUDV) glycoprotein.
VLP-BASED MONOVALENT EBOLA VACCINES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME
Disclosed herein are virus-like particle (VLP)-based monovalent vaccine compositions. The compositions may comprise a spherical retroviral Group-specific Antigen (Gag) protein core and a single Ebola glycoprotein selected from either a Zaire (EBOV) glycoprotein or a Sudan (SUDV) glycoprotein. The Ebola glycoprotein may be incorporated into the surface of the spherical Gag core, wherein said VLP-based vaccine presents a single Ebola glycoprotein antigen.
