摘要:
There are provided antigens, vectors encoding the antigens, and antibodies and other binding compounds to the antigens and uses thereof in the prevention or treatment of malaria. In particular, compositions are provided comprising fragments of Reticulocyte-binding protein Homologue 5 (PfRH5). In particular, the invention provides fragments of PfRH5 rationally designed on the basis of the PfRH5 crystal structure, wherein said fragments which lack disordered regions, particularly the flexible N-terminal region and/or flexible central linker.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a vaccine composition comprising:(i) a peptide hydrogel that is a liquid at room temperature and a gel at physiological pH, physiological salt concentrations and/or physiological temperatures; and (ii) one or more antigens; wherein the peptide hydrogel comprises a self-assembling peptide selected from the group consisting of RAD16-I ((RADA)(4); (SEQ ID NO:2)), RAD16-II ((RARADADA)(2); (SEQ ID NO:3)), KFE-8 ((FKFE)(2); (SEQ ID NO:4)), and KLD-12 ((KLDL)(3)); (SEQ ID NO:5)).

摘要:
This invention relates to the identification of peptide binding to ligands, and in particular to identification of epitopes expressed by microorganisms and by mammalian cells. The present invention provides polypeptides comprising the epitopes, and vaccines, antibodies and diagnostic products that utilize or are developed using the epitopes.
摘要:
The invention relates to the field of molecular medicine. In particular, it relates to compositions and methods to enhance the clearance of aberrant cells, e.g. cancer cells or virus-infected cells, by the host's immune system. Provided is a composition comprising (i) a therapeutic compound that can trigger a host's immune effector cells against an aberrant cell, such as a therapeutic antibody, and (ii) at least one agent capable of reducing or preventing inhibitory signal transduction initiated via SIRPalpha.
摘要:
The present invention encompasses engineered Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) vaccines or compositions. The vaccine or composition may be a recombinant vaccine. The invention also encompasses recombinant vectors encoding and expressing avian pathogen antigens, more specifically avian influenza proteins, epitopes or immunogens. Such vaccines or compositions can be used to protect animals, in particular avian, against disease.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel recombinant swinepox viruses and their use in vaccine compositions. The recombinant swinepox viruses of the invention are doubly defective for IL18bp and TK genes, and comprise at least one foreign gene cloned into defective TK gene sequence. The invention is particularly suited to produce swine vaccines, particularly for vaccinating swine against PCV2 infection.
摘要:
The invention relates to an antigenic composition or vaccine comprising a viral vector, the viral vector comprising nucleic acid encoding Plasmodium protein PfLSA1, or a part or variant of Plasmodium protein PfLSA1; PfLSAP2, or a part or variant of Plasmodium protein PfLSAP2; PfUIS3, or a part or variant of Plasmodium protein PfUIS3; PfI0580c, or a part or variant of Plasmodium protein PfI0580c; and PfSPECT-1, or a part or variant of Plasmodium protein PfSPECT-1.
摘要:
Provided herein are immunogenic compositions comprising a recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a CD40 ligand (CD40L) and a nucleic acid sequence encoding a heterologous disease-associated antigen, wherein the immunogenic composition induces increases T-cell immune responses specific for the heterologous disease-associated antigen when administered to a human host, and related methods and uses.
