  • Patent number: 10138279
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for stimulating an immune response. Specifically, the present invention provides methods of inducing an immune response to bacteria of the genus Bacillus (e.g., Bacillus anthracis) in a subject (e.g., a human subject) and compositions useful in such methods (e.g., a nanoemulsion comprising Bacillus anthracis or an immunogenic portion thereof). Compositions and methods of the present invention find use in, among other things, clinical (e.g. therapeutic and preventative medicine (e.g., vaccination) and research applications.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 13, 2007
    Date of Patent: November 27, 2018
    Assignee: Regents of the University of Michigan
    Inventors: James R. Baker, Jr., Anna Bielinska, Andrzej Myc
  • Patent number: 9839685
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses. Specifically, the present invention provides methods of inducing an immune response to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in a subject (e.g., a human subject) and compositions useful in such methods (e.g., a nanoemulsion comprising HIV or antigenic portion thereof).

  • Publication number: 20120141526
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses. Specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions for the use of nanoemulsion compounds as mucosal adjuvants to induce immunity against environmental pathogens. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present invention provides nanoemulsion vaccines comprising a nanoemulsion and an inactivated pathogen or protein derived from the pathogen. The present invention thus provides improved vaccines against a variety of environmental and human-released pathogens.
