    摘要: A system and methods are disclosed for providing integrated software development environment for the design, verification and validation of advanced automotive safety systems. The system allows automotive software to be developed on a host computer using a collection of computer programs running simultaneously as processes and synchronized by a central process. The software disclosed uses separate synchronized processes, permitting signals from disparate sources to be generated by a simulation running on the host computer or from actual sensors and data bus signals coming from and going to actual vehicle hardware which is connected to their bus counterparts in the host computer on a real-time basis. The methods provide a data model that first extends the capabilities of the physical data model and then translates, gates, optimizes, fuses, filters and manages the physical representation of the logical model into a state estimation of the situation around the vehicle.

    摘要: We identified regions of the HIV-1 proteome with high conservation, and low variant incidence. Such highly conserved sequences have direct relevance to the development of new-generation vaccines and diagnostic applications. The immune relevance of these sequences was assessed by their correlation to previously reported human T-cell epitopes and to recently identified human HIV-1 T-cell epitopes (identified using HLA transgenic mice). We identified (a) sequences specific to HIV-1 with no shared identity to other viruses and organisms, and (b) sequences that are specific to primate lentivirus group, with multiclade HIV-1 conservation.

    摘要: The inventors have discovered a targeting signal that will direct proteins to the endosomal/lysosomal compartment, and they have demonstrated that chimeric proteins containing a luminal antigenic domain and a cytoplasmic endosomal/lysosomal targeting signal will effectively target antigens to that compartment, where the antigenic domain is processed and peptides from it are presented on the cell surface in association with major histocompatibility (MHC) class II molecules. Chimeric DNA encoding the antigen of interest, linked to an endosomal/lysosomal targeting sequence, inserted in an immunization vector, can introduce the chimeric genes into cells, where the recombinant antigens are expressed and targeted to the endosomal/lysosomal compartment. As a result, the antigens associate more efficiently with MHC class II molecules, providing enhanced in vivo stimulation of CD4.sup.+ T cells specific for the recombinant antigen. Delivering antigens to an endosomal/lysosomal compartment by means of chimeric constructs containing such lysosomal targeting signals will be of value in any vaccination or immunization strategy that seeks to stimulate CD4.sup.+ MHC class II restricted immune responses.

    摘要: The invention provides chimeric proteins and nucleic acids encoding these which can be used to generate vaccines against selected antigens. In one aspect, a chimeric protein comprises an antigen sequence and a domain for trafficking the protein to an endosomal compartment, irrespective of whether the antigen is derived from a membrane or non-membrane protein. In one preferred aspect, the trafficking domain comprises a lumenal domain of a LAMP polypeptide. Alternatively, or additionally, the chimeric protein comprises a trafficking domain of an endocytic receptor (e.g., such as DEC-205 or gp200-MR6). The vaccines (DNA, RNA or protein) can be used to modulate or enhance an immune response against any kind of antigen. In one preferred aspect, the invention provides a method for treating a patient with cancer by providing a chimeric protein comprising a cancer-specific antigen or a nucleic acid encoding the protein to the patient.

    摘要: Pandemic A(H1N1) continues its global spread, and vaccine production is a serious problem. Protection by current vaccines is limited by the mutational differences that rapidly accumulate in the circulating strains, especially in the virus surface proteins. New vaccine strategies are focusing at conserved regions of the viral internal proteins to produce T cell epitope-based vaccines. T cell responses have been shown to reduce morbidity and promote recovery in mouse models of influenza challenge. We previously reported 54 highly conserved sequences of NP, M1 and the polymerases of all human H1N1, H3N2, H1N2, and H5N1, and avian subtypes over the past 30 years. Sixty-three T cell epitopes elicited responses in HLA transgenic mice (A2, A24, B7, DR2, DR3 and DR4). These epitopes were compared to the 2007-2009 human H1N1 sequences to identify conserved and variant residues. Seventeen T cell epitopes of PB1, PB2, and M1 were selected as vaccine targets by analysis of sequence conservation and variability, functional avidity, non-identity to human peptides, clustered localization, and promiscuity to multiple HLA alleles. The vaccines composed of these epitopes, being highly conserved and temporally stable, would be useful for any avian or human influenza A virus.

    摘要: Flaviviruses represent an increasing global public health issue, with no prophylactic and therapeutic formulations currently available for many of them. The combination of factors such as evolutionary change, global warming and wide range of animal hosts suggest the possible occurrence of Flavivirus strains with greater distribution and human pathogenicity. There is, thus, a need for greater understanding of viral protein sequences that function in the human immune responses. The evolutionary diversity of the reported sequences of major flaviviruses, such as dengue virus, yellow fever virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, and West Nile virus were analyzed with a combination of experimental and bioinformatics methodologies. The analysis of all reported sequences revealed that these species-specific peptide tags are highly conserved and are potential T-cell epitopes due to correspondence to known or predicted epitopes. These peptide tags have direct relevance to the development of new-generation vaccines and diagnostic applications.
