  • Patent number: 9957300
    Abstract: Briefly described, virus-like particles, methods of preparing virus-like particles, immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles, and methods of eliciting an immune response using immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles are described herein. A virus-like particle (VLP) can include a viral core protein that can self assemble into the VLP core and at least one viral surface envelope glycoprotein expressed on the surface of the VLP. The VLP can also optionally include at least one adjuvant molecule expressed on the surface of the VLP.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 4, 2015
    Date of Patent: May 1, 2018
    Assignee: Emory University
    Inventors: Richard W. Compans, Chinglai Yang, Qizhi Yao, Sang-moo Kang

  • Publication number: 20060088909
    Abstract: Briefly described, virus-like particles, methods of preparing virus-like particles, immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles, and methods of liciting an immune response using immunogenic compositions that include virus-like particles are described herein. A virus-like particle (VLP) can include a viral core protein that can self assemble into the VLP core and at least one viral surface envelope glycoprotein expressed on the surface of the VLP. The viral protein and the viral surface envelope glycoprotein are from different viruses. Another VLP can include a viral core protein that can self assemble into a VLP core; at least one viral surface envelope glycoprotein expressed on the surface of the VLP; and at least one adjuvant molecule expressed on the surface of the VLP.
