Characterization and immunogenicity of nanoparticle vaccines displaying embecovirus spike proteins

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Virus‐like particle vaccines displaying spike proteins from OC43, HKU1 A, and HKU1 B were evaluated in mice for their ability to elicit antibodies against the spike proteins from OC43, HKU1 A, HKU1 B, and HKU1 C. Abstract Endemic human coronaviruses OC43 and HKU1 cause widespread respiratory infections and can be associated with severe illness in ...

MVA-HBVac—A novel vaccine vector that allows pan-genotypic targeting of hepatitis B virus by therapeutic vaccination

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Therapeutic vaccination holds the promise to cure chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. We hypothesize that B cell, CD4, and CD8 T cell responses are necessary to overcome HBV-specific immune tolerance in chronic infection because they accompany the

Engineered molecular diagnostic strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma: Integrating flexible photonic barcodes, liquid biopsies, and AI‐enhanced sensing platforms

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains challenging because conventional serum biomarkers, especially alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP), show limited sensitivity for early‐stage disease. Recent progress in engineered molecular diagnostics provides new opportunities to improve HCC detection through integrated material, molecular, and ...

Evaluation of the accuracy of a multi-infection screening test based on a multiplex immunoassay targeting imported diseases common in migrant populations

Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease
Background: We aimed to evaluate the performance of a novel multiplex serological assay, able to simultaneously detect IgG of six infections, as a screening tool for imported diseases in migrants.

Detection of hepatitis B virus DNA in sera from 18 alcoholic carriers of "anti-HBc alone" and response to a single dose of hepatitis B vaccine Pesquisa de DNA do vírus da hepatite B no soro de 18 alcoolistas portadores de "anti-HBc isolado" e resposta a uma dose da vacina para hepatite B

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2008
To evaluate the possibility of occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in alcoholics carriers of "anti-HBc alone", and to verify the behavior of this serological pattern after a single dose of hepatitis B vaccine, 18 alcoholics who had this serological ...

The association of HBV core promoter double mutations (A1762T and G1764A) with viral load differs between HBeAg positive and anti-HBe positive individuals: A longitudinal analysis [PDF]

, 2009
Background/Aims: Although there have been a few reports regarding the effect of basal core promoter (BCP) double mutations (A1762T and G1764A) on hepatitis B viral loads, the association remains uncertain.
