  • Patent number: 10072058
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a GM-CSF and IL-4 conjugate fused to a glycolipid (GPI)-anchoring sequence that is incorporated into chimeric virus-like particles (VLPs) enriched with a viral protein, e.g., viral envelope protein or HIV envelope protein. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of immunization with the chimeric VLPs disclosed herein. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of immunization with disclosed HIV antigen containing VLPs through an intramuscular priming-intranasal boosting immunization route.
