Method for immunizing an avian species
The present invention relates to a method for generating a plurality of different IgY antibodies, by immunizing each of a plurality of avian organisms of the same or different species with a composition comprising a plurality of different antigens, thereby generating a plurality of different IgY antibodies.
DOSE SELECTION OF ADJUVANTED SYNTHETIC NANOCARRIERS
Disclosed are synthetic nanocarrier compositions with coupled adjuvant compositions as well as related methods.
Methods and compositions for inhibiting diseases of the central nervous system
Methods and compositions for treating central nervous system diseases and disorders are disclosed. In a particular embodiment, compositions comprising a nitrated alpha synuclein peptide are provided. The composition may further comprise an adjuvant that stimulates regulatory T cells and/or at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
COMPOSITIONS AND USES
The present invention relates to immunogenic compositions and methods for producing them, and in particular, immunogenic compositions comprising a protein antigen cross linked to an oxoadenine adjuvant.
Pneumoccal polysacchride conjugate vaccine
The present invention is in the field of pneumococcal capsular saccharide conjugate vaccines. Specifically, a multivalent Streptococcus pneumoniae immunogenic composition is provided with various conjugated capsular saccharides from different S. pneumoniae serotypes conjugated to 2 or more different carrier proteins, where the composition comprises serotype 19F capsular saccharide conjugated to diphtheria toxoid (DT) or CRM197, optionally wherein 19F is the only saccharide in the composition conjugated to diphtheria toxoid (DT) or CRM197.
Process for stabilizing an adjuvant containing vaccine composition
The present invention relates to a process for stabilizing an adjuvant containing vaccine composition, an adjuvanted vaccine composition in dry form and in particular a process for stabilizing an influenza vaccine composition, particularly an adjuvanted influenza vaccine composition in dry form.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS AND CANCER
Aspects of the invention are drawn to compositions and methods for modulating CD8 Treg mobilization in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, rejection of transplanted organs and cancer.
LIVE ATTENUATED ZIKA VIRUS WITH 3'UTR DELETION, VACCINE CONTAINING AND USE THEREOF
The present invention discloses a live attenuated strain of Zika virus (ZIKV) having a deletion in the 3 untranslated region (3UTR) of the viral genome, which may affect viral RNA synthesis and sensitivity to type I interferon inhibition, but may not affect viral RNA translation. The present invention also discloses the use of these live attenuated ZIKV strains in the preparation of ZIKV vaccines and for providing immunoprotection against ZIKV infection and congenital ZIKV syndrome, particularly in pregnant females.
Swine dysentery vaccine
The present invention relates to a composition comprising Brachyspira hyodysenteriae bacteria, particularly in the field of immunization against swine dysentery. The composition of the invention comprises bacteria from at least two genetically diverse strains of B. hyodysenteriae. The invention relates also to the composition of the invention for use as a vaccine, preferably a universal vaccine against swine dysentery caused by B. hyodysenteriae.
METHODS FOR PROVIDING ADJUVANTED VIROSOMES AND ADJUVANTED VIROSOMES OBTAINABLE THEREBY
The invention relates to the fields of immunology and vaccinology. Provided is a method for preparing adjuvanted virosomes, comprising the steps of: (i) providing an aqueous composition of non-adjuvanted virosomes comprising a membrane fusion protein; (ii) dissolving an amphiphilic adjuvant in a pharmaceutically acceptable non-aqueous solvent which can form a homogeneous mixture with water; and (iii) diluting said adjuvant solution in said aqueous virosome composition to induce insertion of adjuvant in the outer leaflet of the virosomal membrane while preserving membrane fusion activity of the virosomes. Also provided are adjuvanted virosomes obtainable by said method, and vaccines comprising the virosomes.
