    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods useful for preventing and treating Zika virus infection. As described herein, the compositions and methods are based on development of immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles (VLPs) which comprise one or more Moloney Murine leukemia virus (MMLV) core proteins and include one or more Zika epitopes, such as, for example, from Zika envelope glycoprotein E and the Zika structural protein NS1 including variants thereof.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods useful for determining levels of HCMV infection in host cells and, by extension, determining levels of neutralizing antibodies present in a sample. The present disclosure encompasses the recognition that HCMV viruses that have a fluorescent moiety permit detection of viral infection (e.g., by assessing fluorescence in cells after contacting the host cell with the virus). In some embodiments, levels of HCMV infection are determined by fluorescence detection where the virus has been preincubated with a test sample (e.g., a serum sample) from a subject. In some embodiments, the subject has been administered a candidate HCMV vaccine.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods useful for treating viral infections. As described herein, the compositions and methods are based on the development of immunogenic compositions that include an inactivated virus in combination with a non-ionic surfactant vesicle (NISV). In certain embodiments at least a portion of the antigen present in the composition is physically associated with the NISV. In certain embodiments the compositions are lyophilized and subsequently rehydrated after a period of storage. In certain embodiments the rehydrated compositions exhibit greater potency as compared to otherwise equivalent compositions that lack the NISV. In certain embodiments the lyophilized compositions are stored at temperatures in excess of 8° C. prior to rehydration. In certain embodiments, the rehydrated compositions exhibit greater potency as compared to otherwise equivalent compositions that lack the NISV and that were also stored at temperatures in excess of 8° C. prior to rehydration. In certain embodiments the antigen is taken from a licensed vaccine and the administered dose of antigen is less than the standard human dose for the licensed vaccine.

    Abstract translation: 本公开提供了可用于治疗病毒感染的组合物和方法。 如本文所述,组合物和方法基于包括与非离子表面活性剂囊泡(NISV)组合的灭活病毒的免疫原性组合物的开发。 在某些实施方案中,组合物中存在的至少一部分抗原与NISV物理相关。 在某些实施方案中,将组合物冻干并随后在储存一段时间后再水化。 在某些实施方案中,与缺乏NISV的其它等同组合物相比,再水化组合物表现出更大的效力。 在某些实施方案中,冻干组合物在再水化之前储存在超过8℃的温度下。 在某些实施方案中,与缺乏NISV的其它等同组合物相比,再水合组合物显示出更大的效力,并且在再水合之前也在超过8℃的温度下储存。 在某些实施方案中,抗原是从经许可的疫苗获得的,并且所给予的抗原剂量小于许可疫苗的标准人剂量。

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods useful for treating HCMV infection. As described herein, the compositions and methods are based on development of immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles (VLPs) which comprise one or more Moloney Murine leukemia virus (MMLV) core proteins and include one or more HCMV epitopes, such as, for example, from HCMV envelope glycoproteins gB and/or gH and/or tegument protein pp65. Among other things, the present invention encompasses the recognition that a combination of antigens (e.g., envelope glycoproteins and structural proteins) can lead to beneficial immune responses, for example that include both a humoral response (e.g., production of neutralizing antibodies) and a cellular response (e.g., T-cell activation).
