摘要:
Embodiments herein relate to compositions of and methods for live viruses. In certain embodiments, a live, attenuated virus composition includes, but is not limited to, one or more live, attenuated viruses and compositions to reduce inactivation and/or degradation of the live, attenuated virus. In other embodiments, the live, attenuated virus composition may be a vaccine composition. In yet other compositions, a live, attenuated virus composition may include at least one carbohydrate, at least one protein and at least one high molecular weight surfactants for reducing inactivation and/or degradation of the live, attenuated virus.
摘要:
Means and methods for producing mammalian viruses, the method comprising infecting a culture of immortalized human cells with a virus, incubating the culture infected with virus to propagate the virus under conditions that permit growth of the virus, and to form a virus-containing medium, and removing the virus-containing medium. The viruses can be harvested and be used for the production of vaccines. Advantages include that human cells of the present invention can be cultured under defined serum-free conditions and the cells show improved capability for propagating virus. Methods are provided for producing, in cultured human cells, influenza virus and vaccines derived thereof. This method eliminates the necessity of using whole chicken embryos for the production of Influenza vaccines. The method also provides for the continuous or batch-wise removal of culture media. As such, the present invention allows the large-scale continuous production of viruses to a high titer.

摘要:
An improved method of inducing whole-body hyperthermia and enhanced anti-tumor immune response through inoculation of a fever virus with nil mortality and subsequent injection of irradiated tumor cells derived from the patient. This therapy will safely reduce the tumor burden by 90-99.9% by physical means (fever), before raising interferon levels to over 250 times baseline. The Activated Lymphokine Killer cells produced by these high interferon levels are capable of killing any cell expressing viral or tumor antigens, even those which had previously escaped immune surveillance. As a final step in the process, a specific class of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes programmed to destroy the patient's own cancer cells will be produced by repeated inoculation of irradiated cancer cells harvested from the patient. Through a combination of three methods of therapy never previously integrated into a single regimen, it is logical to state that this therapy has a high probability of completely eradicating cancer cells from the patient. In addition, this therapy provides for life-long immunity to the reoccurrence of the disease.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for industrially producing a Japanese encephalitis vaccine, wherein (a) cells from a cell line are cultured, (b) the resulting cell culture is inoculated with a Japanese encephalitis virus in the presence of a viral growth medium, (c) the virus is propagated and multiplied on the cells, (d) the viral growth medium is recovered in the form of a suspension of viruses produced by the cells, (e) the virus suspension is purified in at least one ion exchange chromatography step and a gel permeation step, and (f) the virus suspension is formulated and converted into a pharmaceutical form to preserve it until the moment of use. A Japanese encephalitis vaccine characterised in that it comprises a Japanese encephalitis virus produced by culturing cells from a cell line, and in that the cellular DNA content is less than 100 pg/dose, is also disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to Zika virus vaccines and immunogenic compositions having one or more antigens from a Zika virus (e.g., a Zika virus clonal isolate, a non-human cell adapted Zika virus, etc.), and methods of treatments and uses thereof.
摘要:
Arbovirus carries an altered furin cleavage site that results in enhanced cleavage of a precursor polyprotein, such as, prE2 or prM. Dengue virus particles can have an amino acid alteration within amino acids 80-130 of prM. Zika virus particles can have alterations at amino residues at and/or about the furin cleavage site. The virus can be produced in insect cells. The virus does not form progeny virus in mammal cells.
