Abstract: Provided herein, inter alia, are compositions for the modulation of epithelium function, the compositions comprising EphrinA3 protein or EphrinA2 protein, fusions thereof, fragments thereof, or oligonucleotides encoding the same. Also provided are methods for modulating epithelium function, the methods comprising administration of compositions provided herein, including embodiments thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a Chlamydia-activated B cell (CAB) platform. Also disclosed is a method of enhancing a population of B cells, comprising exposing said B cells to Chlamydia spp. under conditions suitable to enhance the population of B cells, such that expansion and differentiation of said B cells takes place, and said B cells are exposed or crosslinked to an antigen. Also disclosed are methods of producing said CABs, and treating a subject in need thereof with said CABs.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a recombinant Chlamydia-activated B cell (CAB) platform, vaccines, and methods of using the same. Disclosed is a method of enhancing a population of B cells, comprising exposing said B cells to a recombinant polypeptide derived from a Chlamydia spp. under conditions suitable to enhance the population of B cells, such that expansion and differentiation of said B cells takes place, and said B cells are exposed or crosslinked to an antigen. Also disclosed are methods to use a recombinant polypeptide derived from a Chlamydia spp. as an adjuvant for induction of enhanced humoral immunity against an unrelated antigen (e.g., humoral immunity against HIV antigen). Also disclosed are methods of producing said CABs, and treating a subject in need thereof with said CABs.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a vaccine comprising an antigen and a protein, peptide, or carbohydrate of Chlamydia spp., or a fragment thereof, wherein the antigen is not derived from a Chlamydia spp. Also disclosed are methods of treating or preventing diseases comprising administering to a subject a vaccine, wherein the vaccine comprises art antigen and a protein, peptide, or carbohydrate of Chlamydia spp., or a fragment thereof, wherein the antigen is not derived from a Chlamydia spp.
