  • Publication number: 20240173390
    Abstract: Embodiments of a novel platform for delivering a peptide antigen to a subject to induce an immune response to the peptide antigen are provided. For example, nanoparticle polyplexes are provided that comprise a polymer linked to a peptide conjugate by an electrostatic interaction. The conjugate comprises a peptide antigen linked to a peptide tag through an optional linker. An adjuvant may be included in the nanoparticle polyplex, linked to either the polymer or the conjugate, or admixed with the nanoparticles.

  • Patent number: 11865168
    Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment of an intracellular bacterial infection in a subject in need thereof, comprising one or more modulating agents, wherein the one or more modulating agents increase expression of IFN?, IL-2, TNF, and/or IL-17 in systemic and/or lung T cells. In some embodiments, the increase of expression of IFN?, IL-2, TNF, and/or IL-17 occurs in lung T cells. The lung T cells can be lung resident T cells or systemic T cells that are recruited to the lung. In some embodiments, the T cells are CD4+ and/or CD8+ T cells. In some embodiments, the intracellular bacterial infection is a Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection.

  • Publication number: 20210023208
    Abstract: Embodiments of a novel system for delivering an expression vector encoding an antigen to a subject that allows for spatiotemporal control over stimulation of the subject's immune response to the antigen are provided. In some embodiments, the expression vector delivery system includes a polymer linked to an adjuvant in prodrug form that can form polymer nanoparticles and enter a cell (such as an immune cell) under physiological conditions. In some embodiments, the adjuvant is linked to the polymer by an enzyme degradable labile bond, the cleavage of which activates the adjuvant to stimulate an immune response.
