  • Publication number: 20230022109
    Abstract: Provided is a novel coronavirus vaccine using replication-deficient human type 5 adenovirus as a vector. The vaccine takes the replication-deficient human type 5 adenovirus that is lack of E1 and E3 in a combined mode as a vector, and HEK293 cells that integrate adenovirus E1 genes serve as a packaging cell line, and protective antigenic genes carried are optimized COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) S protein genes (Ad5-nCoV). The vaccine has good immunogenicity in both mouse and guinea pig models and can induce the body to produce a strong cellular and humoral immune responses in a short time. Research on the protective effect of hACE2 transgenic mice shows that 14 days after a single Ad5-nCoV immunization, the viral load in lung tissues can be significantly reduced. It shows that the vaccine has a good immune protection effect against COVID-19.

  • Publication number: 20220315949
    Abstract: A single plasmid vector system for packaging recombinant human adenovirus type 4. The vector system contains an E3 region-deleted human adenovirus type 4 (HAdV-4 or Ad4) genome, a vector sequence for amplifying plasmids in bacteria, a pBR322 replication origin, a kanamycin resistance gene, and a replication control sequence; and an exogenous gene embedding site is located behind a packaging signal of the human adenovirus type 4 and in front of an E1 region. The present invention further provides a method for packaging the recombinant human adenovirus type 4 by the single plasmid vector system and an application in vaccine and drug preparation. The vector system can be used for rapidly and efficiently preparing a human adenovirus type 4 vector recombinant virus for stably expressing an exogenous gene, and has a good application prospect in the fields of preparation of a diagnostic kit, a vaccine, a gene therapy kit and/or a tumor therapy drug, etc.

  • Patent number: 11363832
    Abstract: A method for preparing Cordyceps militaris nano-composite powder with protein-polysaccharide complex coacervation stability. The method includes sorting, drying, crushing suspending Cordyceps militaris ultrafine powder, emulsifying primarily, re-emulsifying, adjusting pH value and conducting spray drying. The emulsion stability after primary emulsification is not high, so re-emulsification technology is increased, and lactalbumin with higher emulsifying property and higher nutritional value are adopted as enhanced emulsifier, thus enhancing stability of an emulsifying system. The network envelopment stability of polysaccharide colloidal xanthan gum or kudzu powder is used to consolidate the stability of the emulsifying system, and a Pickering emulsifying system with multilayer of solid particle stability is constructed.
