Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to immunogenic compositions comprising at least one Yersinia pestis (Y. pestis) antigen, an aluminum salt adjuvant, and an oligonucleotide comprising an unmethylated cytidine-phospho-guanosine (CpG) motif. The immunogenic compositions are suitable for stimulating an immune response against Y. pestis in a subject in need thereof. The present disclosure also relates to kits and methods using the immunogenic compositions, or two separate compositions which together comprise the antigen, the aluminum salt adjuvant, and the oligonucleotide.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an immunogenic composition against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), especially to an immunogenic composition having a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 S protein and adjuvant.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to branched and linear chimeric compounds containing both nucleic acid and non-nucleic acid moieties, as well as to polynucleotides. The present disclosure also relates to uses thereof for stimulating an immune response, and to methods for preparation of the branched chimeric compounds.
Abstract:
Disclosed are alkyl chain modified 1H-imidazoquinoline compounds, derivatives and analogs thereof, as Toll-like receptor-7 and -8 agonists for enhancing immune responses. Also provided are methods of making pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds. The present disclosure also describes methods of use for the alkyl chain modified 1H-imidazoquinoline compounds, derivatives and analogs thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds for the treatment of disease in a subject.
Abstract:
Provided herein are human Toll-like receptor (TLR)-inhibitors and methods for use in individuals having an autoimmune disease or an inflammatory disorder. The TLR inhibitors of the present disclosure are polynucleotides comprising an inhibitory motif for one or more of TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9.
Abstract:
In one aspect, provided herein are immunogenic compositions comprising CpG oligonucleotide adjuvant, and a recombinant neuraminidase, wherein the recombinant neuraminidase comprises a globular head domain of influenza virus neuraminidase and a tetramerization domain, and wherein the recombinant neuraminidase lacks influenza virus neuraminidase stalk, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. In another aspect, provided herein are methods of immunizing a subject against influenza virus using such immunogenic compositions. In another aspect, provided herein are methods of immunizing a subject against influenza virus using such immunogenic compositions.
Abstract:
The invention relates to compounds of formula (I):
or a salt or solvate thereof, wherein the variables are as described herein. Compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutical compositions thereof are antagonists of toll-like receptors such as TLR7, TLR8 and/or TLR9 that are useful for inhibiting immune response and treating diseases associated with undesirable immune response.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to immunogenic compositions comprising a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antigen, and a toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist, such as an oligonucleotide comprising an unmethylated cytidine-phospho-guano sine (CpG) motif. The immunogenic compositions are suitable for stimulating an immune response against a SARS-CoV-2 in an individual in need thereof.
