A prophylactic and/or therapeutic food composition for control of deformed wing vims (DWV) in bees and/or bee larvae, and methods of using and making the same. Bee feed compositions comprising anti-DWV antibodies dispersed in an edible base composition. Use of recombinant VP1, VP2, VP3, and/or VP4 capsid proteins, or VLPs of deformed wing vims (DWV) to passively generate anti-DWV antibodies in chicken egg yolks, and use of such anti-DWV antibodies for prophylaxis or treatment of deformed wing virus in the bees and/or larvae.

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.

Novel compositions useful as human rhinovirus immunogens are provided. The compositions enable a host response to sites normally not recognized by a host.

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 present invention is directed to novel nucleotide sequences of Senecavirus A (“SVA”), including novel genotypes thereof, which are useful as live attenuated and other vaccine compositions for treating and preventing diseases in swine and other animals. Vaccines provided according to the practice of the invention are effective against multiple swine SVA genotypes and isolates. Diagnostic and therapeutic sequences are also a feature of the present invention, as are infectious clones useful in the propagation of the virus and in the preparation of vaccines. Particularly important aspects of the invention include polynucleotide constructs that replicate in tissue culture and in host swine. The invention also provides for novel full length SVA genomes that can replicate efficiently in host animals and tissue culture.

Compositions for prevention of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) are provided, comprising an antigen component in the amount equivalent to 0.5-20 μg FMD virus and an adjuvant component comprising oil, an immunostimulatory oligonucleotide, and a polycationic carrier. Methods of using the composition, as well as the methods of reducing FMD persistence are also provided.

The present invention is directed to novel nucleotide and amino acid sequences of Porcine Sapelovirus (“PSV”), including novel genotypes thereof, all of which are useful in the preparation of vaccines for treating and preventing diseases in swine and other animals. Vaccines provided according to the practice of the invention are effective against multiple swine PSV genotypes and isolates. Diagnostic and therapeutic polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies are also a feature of the present invention, as are infectious clones useful in the propagation of the virus and in the preparation of vaccines. Particularly important aspects of the invention include polynucleotide constructs that replicate in tissue culture and in host swine. The invention also provides for novel full-length PSV genomes that can replicate efficiently in host animals and tissue culture.

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.

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.

Novel compositions useful as human rhinovirus immunogens are provided. The compositions enable a host response to sites normally not recognized by a host.
