摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and fusion proteins containing at least two Mycobacterium sp. antigens, and polynucleotides encoding such compositions and fusion proteins. The invention also relates to methods for their use in the treatment, prevention and/or diagnosis of tuberculosis infections.
摘要:
Compositions and methods, including vaccines and pharmaceutical compositions for inducing or enhancing an immune response are disclosed based on the discovery of useful immunological adjuvant properties in a synthetic, glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant (GLA) that is provided in substantially homogeneous form. Chemically defined, synthetic GLA offers a consistent vaccine component from lot to lot without the fluctuations in contaminants or activity that compromise natural-product adjuvants. Also provided are vaccines and pharmaceutical compositions that include GLA and one or more of an antigen, a Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist, a co-adjuvant and a carrier such as a pharmaceutical carrier.
摘要:
Compounds, particularly, glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant (GLA) compounds, having the following structure (I) are provided: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6, L7, L8, L9, L10, Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, are as defined herein. Pharmaceutical compositions, vaccine compositions, and related methods for inducing or enhancing immune responses, are also provided.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for preventing, treating and detecting leishmaniasis are disclosed. The compositions generally comprise fusion polypeptides comprising multiple Leishmania antigens, in particular, KMP11, SMT, A2 and/or CBP, or immunogenic portions or variants thereof, as well as polynucleotides encoding such fusion polypeptides.

摘要:
Compounds and methods are provided for diagnosing, preventing, treating and detecting leishmaniasis infection and stimulating immune responses in patients are disclosed. The compounds disclosed are include polypeptides and fusion proteins that contain at least one immunogenic portion of one or more Leishmania antigens, or a variant thereof. Additionally, methods of screening a screening library for tandem repeat proteins that have immunogenic properties are disclosed. Vaccines and pharmaceutical compositions comprising polynucleotides, polypeptides, fusion proteins and variants thereof that may be used for the prevention and therapy of leishmaniasis, as well as for the detection of Leishmaniasis infection are described.
摘要:
Provided herein are nanoalum particles comprising an aluminum salt and a sizing agent, wherein the size of the particle ranges from about 1 nm to 450 nm. Such a nanoalum particles are stable and are amenable to a terminal sterilization step prior to vialing. Compositions comprising the nanoalum particles, and the making and using of the nanoalum particles are also provided.
摘要:
A West Nile virus (WNV) vaccine for human use is described that contains a recombinantly produced form of truncated WNV envelope glycoprotein and a combination of a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) and saponin adjuvants. A pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle may also be included in the vaccine.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a herpes zoster vaccine composition, which comprises glycoprotein E of Varicella zoster virus, a glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant, and a metabolic oil, and selectively increases a cell-mediated immune reaction without having disadvantages of attenuated live vaccines, thereby exhibit high safety and a high preventive effect against herpes zoster.
