Disclosed herein are nanostructures and their use, where the nanostructures include (a) a plurality of first assemblies, each first assembly comprising a plurality of identical first polypeptides; (b) a plurality of second assemblies, each second assembly comprising a plurality of identical second polypeptides, wherein the second polypeptide differs from the first polypeptide; wherein the plurality of first assemblies non-covalently interact with the plurality of second assemblies to form a nanostructures; and wherein the nanostructure displays multiple copies of one or more paramyxovirus and/or pneumovirus F proteins or antigenic fragments thereof, on an exterior of the nanostructure.

Provided herein, in some embodiments, are vaccines (and vaccination methods) that include a ribonucleic acid (RNA) polynucleotide encoding a human metapneumovirus (hMPV) F protein and a RNA polynucleotide encoding a human parainfluenza virus 3 (hPIV3) F protein.

The present invention relates to modified metapneumovirus (hMPV) F proteins, stabilized in the pre-fusion conformation. It also relates to immunogenic compositions (vaccines) comprising these proteins for preventing and/or treating human subjects against respiratory tract infections.

Poultry vaccines against infectious bronchitis and Turkey Rhinotracheitis are provided. The vaccines are adjuvanted with oil emulsion containing an immunostimulatory oligonucleotide. The methods of using the vaccines are also provided.

Provided herein are vaccine composition comprising a chemically-modified messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) encoding a hMPV fusion (F) glycoprotein and a chemically-modified mRNA encoding a hPIV3 F glycoprotein formulated in a cationic lipid nanoparticle formulation, and related method for inducing an antigen-specific immune response.

Disclosed herein are nanostructures and their use, where the nanostructures include (a) a plurality of first assemblies, each first assembly comprising a plurality of identical first polypeptides; (b) a plurality of second assemblies, each second assembly comprising a plurality of identical second polypeptides, wherein the second polypeptide differs from the first polypeptide; wherein the plurality of first assemblies non-covalently interact with the plurality of second assemblies to form a nanostructures; and wherein the nanostructure displays multiple copies of one or more paramyxovirus and/or pneumovirus F proteins or antigenic fragments thereof, on an exterior of the nanostructure.

Embodiments of the disclosure concern multi-respiratory vims specific T cell lines and methods of using the same to treat and prevent viral infections.

Disclosed herein are nanostructures and their use, where the nanostructures include (a) a plurality of first assemblies, each first assembly comprising a plurality of identical first polypeptides; (b) a plurality of second assemblies, each second assembly comprising a plurality of identical second polypeptides, wherein the second polypeptide differs from the first polypeptide; wherein the plurality of first assemblies non-covalently interact with the plurality of second assemblies to form a nanostructures; and wherein the nanostructure displays multiple copies of one or more paramyxovirus and/or pneumovirus F proteins or antigenic fragments thereof, on an exterior of the nanostructure.

Described herein are virus-like particles (VLPs) that display on their surfaces antigenic paramyxovirus (e.g., RSV and/or MPV) proteins. Also described are methods of making and using these VLPs.

This disclosure relates to a chimeric respiratory syncytial vims encoding a chimeric RSV and hMPV F protein and uses of the chimeric virus or components therein in a vaccine. In certain embodiments, this disclosure relates to a live attenuated vaccine comprising an RSV backbone substituting the F proteins of RSV, for a chimeric RSV and hMPV F protein.
