Provided, inter alia, are methods and compositions for treating cancer.

Glycotargeting therapeutics are useful in the treatment of transplant rejection, autoimmune disease, food allergy, and immune response against a therapeutic agent.

The present invention relates to an anti-infection and anti-tumor mucosal immune preparation. The mucosal immune preparation includes mucosal immune substances that are mainly formed by organically bonding polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, non-antibiotic amino compounds and metal cations through chemical bonds. The present invention provides a slow release effect on a local part or the whole body, prevents the degradation of serum ribonucleases of human beings and primates, prolong the half-life period of the mucosal immune preparation, increases the availability and effectiveness of drugs. The mucosal immune preparation can facilitate the mucosal immunity of the body by mucosal immunity and thus facilitate the activation and proliferation of various immune cells, rather than merely acting on diseased local parts, so that the purposes of anti-infection and anti-tumor prevention and treatment with almost no side effects are realized. Mucosal immunity also avoids the pain of repeated injection so that good compliance is achieved.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a nanoparticle based platform, and nanoallergens for identifying, evaluating and studying allergen mimotopes as multiple copies of a single mimotope or various combinations on the same particle. The nanoparticle is extremely versatile and allows multivalent binding to IgEs specific to a variety of mimotopes, simulating allergen proteins. Nanoparticles can include various molecular ratios of components. For example, the nanoallergens can include about 0.1-40% mimotope-lipid conjugate and about 60-99.9% lipid. The mimotope-lipid conjugate includes a mimotope, a first linker, and lipid molecule. Nanoallergens can be used in in vitro and in vivo applications to identify a specific patient's sensitivity to a set of epitopes and predict a symptomatic clinical response, identify allergen epitopes through blind screening peptide sequences from allergen protein, and in a clinical application similar to a scratch test.

The invention provides an aqueous acidic formulation suitable for use as in the preparation of a pharmaceutically acceptable fluorocarbon-linked peptide formulation, which aqueous formulation comprises a first fluorocarbon-linked peptide, wherein: the peptide linked to the fluorocarbon is at least 20 amino acid residues long, comprises at least 50% hydrophobic amino acid residues and has an isoelectric point greater than or equal to 7; and the fluorocarbon-linked peptide is present in micelles.

This invention relates, at least in part, to osmotic mediated release barrier-free synthetic nanocarriers and methods of production and use.

The provided technology is in the field of conjugating native, non-detergent extracted, outer membrane vesicles (nOMV) to antigens to form nOMV-antigen conjugates, which are particularly useful for immunogenic compositions and immunisation; processes for the preparation and use of such conjugates is also provided.

Polynucleotides, scaffolds, and cassettes are presently disclosed and described. In particular, these polynucleotides may have a formula comprising Signal/Leader-payload-PRM, wherein the Signal/Leader encodes a signal sequence, a leader sequence, or a sorting sequence, in frame with and upstream of a payload; the payload is an antigenic payload region, a detectable agent, and a therapeutic agent; and the PRM encodes all or a portion of at least one parental receptor molecule region from one or more isoforms or proteins selected from the group consisting of CD1d, CD1e, LDLR, LDLRP, and LRP1 proteins.

Gas-filled microvesicles comprising an antigen bound thereto and to aqueous suspensions containing said microvesicles, for use in immunomodulating formulations, in particular as a vaccine. The antigen is covalently bound to a component of the microvesicles envelope. The microvesicles of the invention, comprising a molar excess of fatty acids in the stabilizing envelope, are particularly effective in the uptake by antigen-presenting cells, in particular dendritic cells.

The present disclosure relates to immunostimulatory compositions that are effective in eliciting immune responses in avian species. More specifically, these immunostimulatory compositions comprise an immunomodulator composition and an immunostimulatory oligonucleotide that when administered
