VACCINES FORMED BY VIRUS AND ANTIGEN CONJUGATION
Disclosed herein are methods of forming compounds and exemplary stable compounds in the nature of a conjugated compound at refrigerated or room temperature, which in some embodiments comprises an antigen and virus particle mixed in a conjugation reaction to form a conjugate mixture, such that the conditions and steps of forming these products allow for use of the conjugate mixture as a vaccine, including but not limited to use as a vaccine against various pathogens including for treatment of diseases caused by novel coronaviruses (including SARS-COV 2).
AUTOLOGOUS AND ALLOGENIC HIV-1 PROTEINS FOR THE TREATMENT OF LATENT HIV-1 INFECTION
A method of reducing a latent HIV-specific memory-CD4+ T cell pool in a subject includes administering to the subject at least one HIV-1 protein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the at least one HIV-1 protein is derived from an allogenic infecting HIV-1 virus, and wherein the HIV-1 protein stimulates latent HIV-specific memory CD4+ T cells to induce latent HIV-1 replication resulting in HIV-specific memory-CD4+ T cell death in the subject.
TETRAVALENT DENGUE VACCINE
The invention provides a recombinant polypeptide comprising the EDIII domain of each of Dengue virus serotype DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4 linked to the N-terminal of HBsAg.
MULTIEPITOPE FUSION ANTIGENS FOR VACCINATION AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SUCH ANTIGENS
The present disclosure provides vaccines or immunogenic compositions against clinical signs, symptoms, and losses attributable to or caused by infection with PEDV and/or ETEC. Antigenic epitopes from PEDV and ETEC are used to construct an immunogenic composition, preferably in the form of a multi-epitope fusion antigen or as a live strain through E. coli.
RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS VACCINE
Described is a vaccine against Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). More specifically, described is a recombinant subunit vaccine comprising the ectodomain of the RSV-encoded Small Hydrophobic (SH) protein. The ectodomain of SH is referred to as SHe. The ectodomain is typically presented as an oligomer, or pentamer. Further described are antibodies, raised against the ectodomain or specific for the ectodomain, and their use for protecting a subject against RSV infection and/or for treatment of an infected subject.
COMPOSITIONS AGAINST CAT ALLERGY
The present invention relates to the use of a composition in a method of reducing the allergenicity of a cat. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of a composition in a method of reducing the allergenicity of a cat for a human exposed to the cat. Furthermore, the present invention relates to compositions comprising a virus-like particle (VLP) and at least one Fel d1 protein. The compositions of the invention induce efficient immune responses, in particular antibody responses, in cats and are useful for the treatment and/or prevention of cat allergy.
PREPARATION OF FLAGELLIN VACCINE ADJUVANT-BASED VACCINE TO INDUCE PRODUCTION OF ANTIBODY RECOGNIZING CONFORMATION OF ANTIGENS, AND APPLICATION THEREOF
The present invention provides a vaccine composition for use in neurodegenerative diseases and an infectious virus vaccine composition for inducing an antibody recognizing the conformation of antigens. The vaccine composition of the present invention induces the production of an antibody recognizing the conformation of antigens. The antibody recognizing the conformation of antigens has high specificity for an antigen, and thus can be useful for ameliorating, preventing or treating diseases.
TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF HOUSE DUST MITE ALLERGIES
The present invention relates to a fusion protein having formula (I)
X.sub.1−Y−X.sub.2 (I),
wherein X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 comprise each four to six allergen fragments or variants thereof fused to each other, wherein said allergen fragments are derived from at least two allergens of the genus Dermatophagoides, and wherein Y is a carrier protein.
TAU PEPTIDE IMMUNOGEN CONSTRUCTS
The present disclosure is directed to individual peptide immunogen constructs targeting portions of the Tau protein for the treatment and/or prevention of tauopathies. The present disclosure is also directed to compositions containing the peptide immunogen constructs, methods of making and using the peptide immunogen constructs, and antibodies produced by the peptide immunogen constructs.
Anti-HERV-K envelope protein antibodies and methods for detecting HERV-K envelope protein in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
The present invention relates to a novel antibody against HERV-K envelope that targets a conserved region not affected by glycosylation or by native conformation, and its use in diagnostics and/or is therapy.
