Modifying non-coding regions of linear DNA vaccines to explore the interplay of expression and inflammation in immunogenicity - PubMed The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for rapidly deployable, flexible vaccine platforms; particularly RNA which is now being explored for several other pathogens. DNA vaccines have potential advantages over RNA, including cost of manufacture, ease of storage and potentially lower reactogenicit …

Manipulating the delivery and immunogenicity of DNA vaccines through the addition of CB[8] to cationic polymers - PubMed Challenges with vaccine reactogenicity, stability, and access have highlighted the need to develop alternative strategies for formulation and delivery. We explored the incorporation of cucurbit[n]urils (CBs), as supramolecular "hosts," into nucleic acid-polymer polyplexes. CBs are small, non-toxic, …

Intranasal delivery of mRNA expressing newly identified Acinetobacter baumannii antigens protects against bacterial lung disease - PubMed Vaccines are central to the strategy to control antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacterial infections; one multidrug resistant pathogen of particular concern is Acinetobacter baumannii. In this study we identified two novel A. baumannii antigens using mass spectrometry and phage expression: Oxa23 and P …

Nanoscale Biodegradable Printing for Designed Tuneability of Vaccine Delivery Kinetics - PubMed Two-photon polymerization (2PP) 3D printing enables top-down biomaterial synthesis with nanoscale spatial resolution for de novo design of monodisperse injectable drug delivery systems. Spatiotemporal Controlled Release Inks of Biocompatible polyEsters (SCRIBE) is a novel poly(lactic-co-glycolic aci …

A sort and sequence approach to dissect heterogeneity of response to a self-amplifying RNA vector in a novel human muscle cell line - PubMed Self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) is an extremely promising platform because it can produce more protein for less RNA. We used a sort and sequence approach to identify host cell factors associated with transgene expression from saRNA; the hypothesis was that cells with different expression levels would ha …

A Transgenic Mouse With a Humanized B-Cell Repertoire Mounts an Antibody Response to Influenza Infection and Vaccination - PubMed The development of a universal influenza vaccine likely requires an understanding of previous exposure to influenza virus (through vaccination or infection) and how that shapes the antibody repertoire to vaccination, sometimes called original antigenic sin or antigenic imprinting. While animal model …
