Stable Production of Lentiviral Vectors
The present invention provides new stable packaging cell lines and producer cell lines as well as methods to obtain them, and a new method to produce lentiviral vectors using such cell lines. New methods and packaging cell lines of the invention are generated using a baculo-AAV hybrid system for stable expression of structural and regulatory lentiviral proteins, such system comprising a baculoviral backbone containing an integration cassette flanked by AAV ITR, in combination with a plasmid encoding rep protein. This system allows to obtain a stable integration of the structural and regulatory HIV-1 proteins gag/pol and rev. The system allows to obtain a first intermediate including only the structural and regulatory HIV proteins gag/pol and rev, to be used as starting point to obtain stable packaging cell lines as well as producer cell lines.

Mucosal adjuvant
A mucosal adjuvant may have high mucosal immunogenicity and high safety and be useful in the preparation of mucosal vaccines, and a mucosal vaccine composition may include the same. Such mucosal adjuvant may include TGDK. A method for preparing the mucosal vaccine composition may include mixing TGDK with an immunogen.
Immunogenic Antigens
The invention relates to immunogenic compositions comprising an antigen obtained or derived from an antigenic epitope of one or more pathogens that induces an immune response in a mammal, an antigen obtained or derived from bacterial cell wall or viral material that induces an immune response in a mammal such as LTA, PNG or LPS, and a T cell stimulating antigen such as CRM. Preferably the immunogenic composition is a vaccine that is effective against a pathogenic infection or can generate antibodies that can be collected that are protective against infection by the pathogen. In addition, the invention relates to vaccines comprising antigens and to method for treating and preventing an infection.
NOVEL VERO CELL LINE THAT CAN BE SUSPENSION-CULTURED IN SERUM-FREE MEDIUM, PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR, AND METHOD FOR PREPARING VIRUSES FOR VACCINES BY USING NOVEL CELL LINE
The present disclosure relates to sVERO 7C2, which is a Vero cell line derived from Vero cells (African Green Monkey Kidney Cell Line) distributed from the WHO and capable of suspension culture without serum components. Further, the present disclosure relates to a culture method for growing the Vero cells and a method for producing a vaccine virus using the Vero cells.
Virus and antigen purification and conjugation
Disclosed herein are methods of forming compounds and exemplary compounds in the nature of a conjugated compound demonstrating enhanced stability, which in some embodiments comprises a protein 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 unrefrigerated storage for longer time periods than previous approaches, thus making feasible access to such products over a global supply chain.
Methods of vaccine administration
This invention relates to a method of treating a dog for canine diseases comprising administering to the dog therapeutically effective amounts of a vaccine, wherein the vaccine comprises viral antigens, a bacterin, or both, and wherein the vaccine is administered subcutaneously or orally according to the schedules provided herein.
Human cytomegalovirus immunogenic composition
The invention relates to an immunogenic composition comprising an HCMV gB antigen, an HCMV gH/gL/UL128/UL130/UL131 pentameric complex antigen and a Th1-inducing adjuvant. If further relates to the immunogenic composition for use as an HCMV vaccine.
