  • Publication number: 20250009871
    Abstract: Disclosed are an application of a coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 vaccine polypeptide, a polypeptide composition and a nanoemulsion preparation thereof in the prevention of coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 wild and mutant strain infections. Specifically, provided is a coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 vaccine polypeptide having an amino acid sequence derived from an S protein of SARS-CoV-2 wild and mutant strains, the vaccine polypeptide can enable the body to generate high-level and durable humoral immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 and to produce high titers of RBD-binding antibodies and neutralizing antibodies that block the binding of RBD to ACE2. The vaccine polypeptide can be used to prevent infections of SARS-CoV-2 wild strain and B.1.1.7, B.1.351, B.1.617, B.1.1.529 and other mutant strains.

  • Publication number: 20240261391
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel coronavirus vaccine using a TLR7 agonist conjugated peptide as an antigen and an emulsion as an adjuvant. An antigen polypeptide of the conjugated peptide is a polypeptide derived from an S protein of SARS-COV-2, and the adjuvant is an oil-in-water nanoemulsion containing squalene. The conjugated peptide nanoemulsion vaccine preparation of the present invention is thermally stable, and can induce a high level of protective humoral immune response in a cynomolgus monkey, and the neutralizing antibody titer of antiserum after immunization of cynomolgus monkey is high, such that invasion of wild-type strain and mutant novel coronavirus can be blocked. The vaccine of the present invention has a nearly complete protection effect on the upper and lower respiratory tracts of the cynomolgus monkey in a cynomolgus monkey SARS-COV-2 challenge test.

  • Publication number: 20230338510
    Abstract: Provided are a tandem epitope polypeptide vaccine for novel coronavirus and use thereof. Specifically, a vaccine polypeptide for novel coronavirus pneumonia is provided on the basis of analysis and study of the RBD sequence and structural information of the S protein of SARS-CoV-2. Said vaccine polypeptide comprises the following elements connected in series: a generic Th epitope sequence, a B cell epitope sequence and a T cell epitope sequence. The B cell epitope and the T cell epitope have an amino acid sequence from the RBM region of the S protein of SARS-CoV-2. Provided are a vaccine composition containing said vaccine polypeptide and use thereof. Experiments show that the vaccine polypeptide of the present invention can enable cynomolgus monkeys to initiate strong cellular and humoral immunity, and to generate neutralizing antibodies that block the binding of RBD and ACE2, and can be used for preventing and treating novel coronavirus pneumonia.
