Expanding beyond the natural protein repertoire to engineer targeted vaccines and diagnostics

Fabian Sesterhenn

Proteins have evolved over millions of years to carry out the vast majority of biological functions that are fundamental to life. Their three-dimensional structures and functions have been in the focus of biomedical research for many decades, and substanti ...

Carboplatin/paclitaxel, E7-vaccination and intravaginal CpG as tri-therapy towards efficient regression of genital HPV16 tumors

Douglas Hanahan, Gabriele Galliverti

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for genital and oral cancers associated with the expression of the E6/E7 HPV oncogenes. Therapeutic vaccines targeting those oncogenes can only partially control tumor progression, highlighting the neces ...

A Cationic Micelle Complex Improves CD8+T Cell Responses in Vaccination Against Unmodified Protein Antigen

Davide Demurtas, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Carrie Ellen Brubaker, Daniel Kenneth Bonner, Vasiliki Panagiotou

Nanoscale carrier platforms promote immune responses to vaccination by facilitating delivery of vaccine components to immunologically relevant sites. The technique is particularly valuable for subunit vaccination, in which coadministration of immunostimula ...

Use of VacA as a Vaccine Antigen

Dominique Velin, Mati André Marie Moyat

One of the major toxins secreted by H. pylori is the Vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) named after its ability to induce the formation of "vacuole"-like membrane vesicles in the cytoplasm of gastric cells. VacA has been associated with the disruption of mitoc ...

Protein engineering approaches for direct antigen targeting in CD8+ T cell inducing vaccines

Vasiliki Panagiotou

Effective vaccine design and public vaccination programs have led to the eradication of several diseases and protected millions of people from deadly infections. However, intracellular infections remain a challenge and their eradication requires the activa ...

Engineering nanoparticle-based vaccines: Implications for the quality of humoral and cellular immunity

Marcela Rincón-Restrepo

Vaccination is undoubtedly a major success in modern medicine. Yet, today there are pathogens for which no licensed or fully protective vaccines have been created. Development of vaccines based on subunit components has proven to be a safe and cost effecti ...
