    摘要: Immunogenic T cell receptor γ alternate reading frame protein (TARP) peptide compositions that include multiple epitopes of the TARP protein are described. The disclosed compositions can be used for the treatment of TARP-expressing cancers, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer and mesothelioma. In some embodiments, the TARP peptide compositions disclosed herein include sets of overlapping TARP peptides that each have a length of about 15 to about 25 amino acids, and comprise about 5 to about 15 amino acids that are identical to at least another overlapping peptide in the set. In particular examples, the combination of the overlapping TARP peptides in the set encompasses the complete amino acid sequence of human TARP. The multi-epitope peptide compositions described herein include both CD4 and CD8 epitopes, a feature that is important for eliciting CD4+ T cell and CD8+ T cell, as well as humoral, immune responses.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are isolated rubella viral vector constructs that include a rubella non-structural protein open reading frame (ORF) without an in-frame deletion, a rubella structural protein ORF, and a heterologous antigenic insert. In one example, the heterologous antigenic insert is positioned within the rubella structural protein ORF. In some examples, the heterologous antigenic insert is positioned in the rubella structural protein ORF in between a gene encoding structural protein E2 and a gene encoding structural protein E1. Exemplary antigenic inserts include HIV, SIV, RSV or hepatitis B surface antigens. In some examples, the HIV antigenic insert is a Gag antigenic insert, a gp41 antigenic insert or a gp120 antigenic insert. Also disclosed are uses of the isolated rubella viral vector, such as to induce an immune response to a particular virus, such as HIV-1, testing sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies, or screening antiviral drugs (such as protease inhibitors).
