  • Publication number: 20230355526
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides liposomal compositions comprising lipids, in particular phospholipids and cholesterol, a negatively charged biomolecule, such as a polynucleotide, an ionizable aminoglycoside, such as chitosan, and an oil-based carrier. The compositions can be used for delivery of the biomolecule to targeted cells. The disclosure also provides the use of the composition for the treatment or prevention of cancer or infectious disease or ailment ameliorated by humoral and cellular immune response. The compositions can also be used for expressing polypeptides encoded by the nucleic acid components in the targeted cells.

  • Publication number: 20230044454
    Abstract: A method for synthesizing influenza virus-like particles (VLPs) within a plant or a portion of a plant is provided. The method involves expression of influenza HA in plants and the purification by size exclusion chromatography. The invention is also directed towards a VLP comprising influenza HA protein and plant lipids. The invention is also directed to a nucleic acid encoding influenza HA as well as vectors. The VLPs may be used to formulate influenza vaccines, or may be used to enrich existing vaccines.

  • Publication number: 20220347296
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, uses and compositions and kits for use in inducing an antibody immune response in a human subject. The methods and uses involve administering parenterally a low dose volume of a composition comprising an antigen comprising a B-cell epitope, an amphipathic compound, and a hydrophobic carrier, wherein the low dose volume of the composition is less than 100 ?l and induces an antibody immune response to the B-cell epitope in the human subject.
