Abstract: The present invention is in the fields of medicine, public health, immunology, molecular biology and virology. The invention provides compositions comprising a virus-like particle (VLP) or a virus particle and at least one antigen, particularly at least one feline antigen, and more particularly at least one feline antigen that is a human allergen. In certain embodiments, the antigen is a Fel d1 antigen or a fragment thereof, covalently linked to the VLP. The invention also provides methods for producing the compositions. The compositions of the invention induce efficient immune responses, in particular antibody responses, in mammals, particularly humans. The compositions and methods of the invention are useful in the production of vaccines, in particular for the treatment and/or prevention of allergies to cat dander and other cat antigens and allergens.

Abstract: The present invention relates to human antibodies, preferably to fully human antibodies, which are specifically binding to influenza M2e antigen. The invention further relates to individual light- and/or heavy chains of such antibodies, to nucleic acids encoding said antibodies or their light- and/or heavy chain, and to expression vectors for the expression of said anti-bodies. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of said antibodies in the treatment and/or prevention of influenza A virus infection, preferably in humans.

Abstract: The present invention is in the fields of medicine, public health, immunology, molecular biology and virology. The invention provides composition comprising a virus-like particle (VLP) linked to at least one antigen of the invention, wherein said antigen of the invention is CCR5 of the invention, gastrin of the invention, CXCR4 of the invention, CETP of the invention or C5a of the invention. The invention also provides a process for producing the composition. The compositions of this invention are useful in the production of vaccines, in particular, for the treatment of diseases in which the antigen of the invention mediates, or contributes to the condition, particularly for the treatment of AIDS, gastrointestinal cancers, coronary heart diseases or inflammatory diseases. Moreover, the compositions of the invention induce efficient immune responses, in particular antibody responses.
