  • Patent number: 11382967
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to methods comprising expressing or overexpressing P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) producing cells; isolating HIV particles from the HIV producing cells; and preparing the isolated HIV particles as a HIV vaccine. Embodiments relate to systems comprising a HIV vaccine comprising live attenuated, inactivated, or non-infectious HIV particles. Embodiments relate to systems capable of performing a method comprising administering a vaccine comprising live attenuated, inactivated, or non-infectious HIV particles to a subject in need of the vaccine; and treating or preventing one or more disease states in the subject resulting from HIV infection.

  • Publication number: 20210093709
    Abstract: Live attenuated viruses are provided. The viruses, when assembled, include one or more SHREK proteins and are thereby rendered non-infective and attenuated, and can be safely used in vaccines, e.g. to treat or prevent infections and to eliminate e.g. latent virus reservoirs.

  • Publication number: 20200316190
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a method comprising (a) expressing a vector comprising a PSGL-1 (P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1) or a mutant thereof in a VPC (virus producing cell); and blocking a virus infection by inactivating an infectivity of a released virions from the VPC; or (b) expressing a glycoprotein or a mutant thereof in the VPC; blocking the virus infection by preventing binding of the released virions to a target cell; inactivating infectivity of the released virions; and targeting a viral infection. Other embodiments relate to (1) a broad-spectrum anti-viral product comprising: a vector expressing a glycoprotein or a mutant thereof in a VPC; and blocking a virus infection by inactivating infectivity of a released virion from the VPC; and (2) a vaccine comprising a viral particle is configured to a live attenuated or an inactivated or a non-infectious, wherein the viral particle are produced in a VPC.
