The present invention relates i. a. to an immunogenic composition comprising: a) one or more antigens of avibacterium paragallinarum and one or more antigens of avian encephalomyelitis virus and one or more antigens of fowl pox virus; and b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Furthermore, the present invention relates to methods for immunizing a subject comprising administering to such subject the immunogenic composition of the present invention. Moreover, the present invention relates to methods of treating or preventing clinical signs caused by avibacterium paragallinarum, avian encephalomyelitis virus and fowl pox virus in a subject of need, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an immunogenic composition according to the present invention.

Disclosed herein are recombinant polypeptides derived from FBP1 and FBP2. Also disclosed herein are recombinant expression vectors and recombinant host cells for producing the aforesaid recombinant polypeptides. The recombinant polypeptides are proven to be useful and effective in producing a picornavirus with a type I internal ribosome entry site (IRES), so as to facilitate the preparation of a viral vaccine.

The present invention relates to killed/inactivated and/or recombinant Senecavirus A immunogenic compositions and vaccines, and methods of preventing or treating animals in need of with such an immunogenic compositions and vaccines.

A method of treating cancer in a subject that includes administering in situ to the cancer a therapeutically effective amount of a plant virus or virus-like particle to the subject.

Provided are a series of polypeptides with antiviral activity. The present invention provides a new strategy for preventing and controlling Enterovirus such as EV71, CVA16, CVA6, CVB3, and CVB5 viruses and provides a new theoretical basis for accelerating the research and development of a polypeptide small molecule drug against Enterovirus such as EV71, CVA16, CVA6, CVB3, and CVB5 viruses.

A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof includes administering in situ to the cancer a therapeutically effective amount of a virus or virus-like particle.

The disclosure provides a recombinant nucleic acid of Seneca valley virus, a recombinant vaccine strain and preparation method and use thereof, and relates to the technical field of genetic engineering. The disclosure provides the recombinant nucleic acid of Seneca valley virus, recombinant Seneca valley virus comprising the recombinant nucleic acid, recombinant Seneca valley virus encoded by the recombinant nucleic acid, recombinant Seneca valley virus vaccine strain comprising the recombinant Seneca valley virus and preparation method and use thereof. According to the disclosure, a vaccine strain characterized by high antigen production capacity, remarkably reduced pathogenicity (even having no pathogenicity to pigs), strong antibody induction activity, high immune protection rate is prepared. The vaccine strain remarkably improves the biological safety and can be used for preventing and controlling Seneca valley virus in China and the neighboring countries.

The present disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a nucleic acid molecule of an adjuvant, a metal complex stabilizing the nucleic acid molecule, and optionally an immunogen that may be a peptide or a protein, or a composition of stabilizing the nucleic acid molecule of the adjuvant comprising the metal complex. The metal complex interacts with the nucleic acid molecule of the adjuvant and/or the immunogen so as to stabilize such pharmaceutically active ingredients, and induces continuous effectiveness of the active ingredients without degradation.

The disclosure is directed to an isolated polynucleotide encoding a modified picornavirus 3C protease, wherein the modified picornavirus 3C protease includes an altered secondary structure and one or more amino acid substitution(s) located at one or more amino acid position(s) corresponding to positions 16-25, 99-100 and 115-130 of a wild-type Fool-and-Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) 3C protease, wherein the isolated polynucleotide encoding the modified picornavirus 3C protease, when transformed into and co-expressed in a host cell, enhances transgene expression of a P1 precursor polypeptide in comparison to an amount of P1 precursor polypeptide transgene expression exhibited in a host cell transformed and co-expressed with a control picornavirus 3C protease, wherein the one or more corresponding amino acid position(s) is/are identified by an alignment of the modified picornavirus 3C protease with the one or more of the wild type FMDV 3C protease(s). Methods for processing a picornavirus P1 precursor polypeptide into picornavirus viral proteins and/or virus-like particles using the isolated polynucleotides are also provided.

A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof includes administering in situ to the cancer a therapeutically effective amount of a virus or virus-like particle.
