TARGETED EXPANSION OF QA-1-PEPTIDE-SPECIFIC REGULATORY CD8 T CELLS TO AMELIORATE ARTHRITIS

Nanoparticles to treat autoimmune diseases and HIV infection are provided. The nanoparticles comprise a biocompatible polymer and a complex, wherein the complex is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen E (HLA-E) linked to a peptide, and wherein the HLA-E-peptide complex is linked to the surface of the nanoparticle. The present invention also relates to methods for treating autoimmune diseases and HIV infection.

RAPID AND PROLONGED IMMUNOLOGIC-THERAPEUTIC
20210260183 · 2021-08-26 · ·

The present invention shows that intranasal administration of E1/E3-defective adenovirus particles may confer rapid and broad protection against viral and bacterial pathogens in a variety of disease settings. Protective responses lasted for many weeks in a single-dose regimen in animal models. When a pathogen-derived antigen gene was inserted into the E1/E3-defective adenovirus genome, the antigen-induced protective immunity against the specific pathogen was elicited before the adenovirus-mediated protective response declined away, thus conferring rapid, prolonged, and seamless protection against pathogens. In addition to E1/E3-defective adenovirus, other bioengineered non-replicating vectors encoding pathogen-derived antigens may also be developed into a new generation of rapid and prolonged immunologic-therapeutic (RAPIT).

Vaccine

The invention provides a vaccine composition comprising a Yellow Fever Virus vaccine, for use in vaccinating an individual against infection by a Flavivirus; wherein the Flavivirus is not Yellow Fever Virus. The invention also provides a vaccine composition comprising a Yellow Fever Virus vaccine and one or more additional vaccine against a Flavivirus, for use in vaccinating an individual against infection by the Flavivirus; wherein the Flavivirus is not Yellow Fever Virus.

Vaccine for protection against <i>Streptococcus suis</i>
11103569 · 2021-08-31 · ·

The present invention pertains to a vaccine comprising an IgM protease antigen of Streptococcus suis, for use in a method for protecting pigs against an infection with Streptococcus suis of serotype 2 and against an infection with Streptococcus suis of serotype 9.

COMPOSITIONS, METHODS AND USES FOR THERMALLY STABLE BROAD-SPECTRUM HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS FORMULATIONS

Embodiments of the present invention provide for novel compositions and methods for making and using a thermally stable broad spectrum human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine or immunogenic formulation. Certain embodiments concern lyophilizing HPV formulations in the presence or absence of adjuvants. Other embodiments concern lyophilizing HPV capsomere vaccines and other immunogenic agents to increase stability or reduce degradation of HPV peptides to prolong storage, delivery and use. In yet other embodiments, a single immunogenic formulation can include a thermally stable composition of a broad-spectrum HPV immunogenic composition against multiple HPV types. In some embodiments, a stabilizing formulation can include RG1 HPV16VLP antigens in a hypertonic mixture of a disaccharide and a volatile buffer.

METHODS FOR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF TYPE 1 DIABETES

Methods for preventing, treating or diagnosing Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) are described. Amyloid-producing bacteria within microbiota are inactivated. Amyloid-producing bacteria are inactivated in microbiota, gastrointestinal tract, bodily fluids or tissues. Type-1 Diabetes associated microbial product production or release by microbiota is prevented. Also described is inactivation of bacteria-derived T1DAMP present in microbiota, bodily fluids or tissues of a mammal. Release of bacteria-derived T1DAMP from biofilm or bacteria to gastrointestinal tract is inhibited. Entry of bacteria-derived T1DAMP to microbiota, gastrointestinal tract, bodily fluids or tissues of a mammal is inhibited.

Nanoparticles for treatment of allergy
11071776 · 2021-07-27 · ·

The present invention encompasses the surprising finding that nanoparticle compositions can have beneficial effects on allergy even when prepared without a known specific allergy therapeutic. The present invention provides such nanoparticle compositions. In some embodiments, provided nanoparticles are associated with functional elements that cause the nanoparticles to mimic bacterial cells. The present invention encompasses the surprising finding that provided nanoparticles may be useful for treatment and/or prevention of multiple different allergies in a single patient. The present invention encompasses the recognition that provided empty nanoparticles may be useful as a “pan-allergy” therapeutic and/or vaccine.
