Developing Universal Influenza Vaccines: Hitting the Nail, Not Just on the Head [PDF]
Influenza viruses have a huge impact on public health. Current influenza vaccines need to be updated annually and protect poorly against antigenic drift variants or novel emerging subtypes.

Cubic Phase‐Inducible Zwitterionic Phospholipids Improve the Functional Delivery of mRNA
In this study, a chemically engineered zwitterionic phospholipids derived from 1,2‐dioleoyl‐3‐sn‐glycero‐phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), DOPE‐Cx, are designed. The DOPE‐Cx lipids induce a cubic phase upon mixing with phosphatidylcholine, facilitate membrane fusion‐mediated endosomal escape, and enhance the functional delivery of mRNA.

Vaccination rates against both influenza and COVID-19 fall short of targets, especially among persons at risk of influenza complications. To gain insights into strategies to boost influenza vaccine coverage, we surveyed 3000 Canadian residents aged ≥ 18 ...

Adenoviral Vector-Based Vaccine Platforms for Developing the Next Generation of Influenza Vaccines
Ever since the discovery of vaccines, many deadly diseases have been contained worldwide, ultimately culminating in the eradication of smallpox and polio, which represented significant medical achievements in human health.

The Vaccinee's Dilemma: Individual-level Decisions, Self- Organization & Influenza Epidemics [PDF]
Inspired by Minority Games, we constructed a novel individual-level game of adaptive decision-making based on the dilemma of deciding whether to participate in voluntary influenza vaccination programs. The proportion of the population vaccinated (i.e., the vaccination coverage) determines epidemic severity.

Immunogenicity and tolerability of an MF59-adjuvanted, egg-derived, A/H1N1 pandemic influenza vaccine in children 6-35 months of age [PDF]
Background: Vaccines against pandemic A/H1N1 influenza should provide protective immunity in children, because they are at greater risk of disease than adults.

Anti‐inflammatory macrophage‐derived exosomes modified with selfantigen peptides are developed to induce antigen‐specific immune tolerance. These exosomes demonstrate prophylactic effects in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Abstract Current treatments for autoimmune diseases often involve broad‐acting immunosuppressants, which carry risks ...

M2e-Based Universal Influenza A Vaccines
The successful isolation of a human influenza virus in 1933 was soon followed by the first attempts to develop an influenza vaccine. Nowadays, vaccination is still the most effective method to prevent human influenza disease.

Influenza-associated mortality for different causes of death during the 2010-2011 through the 2014-2015 influenza seasons in Russia [PDF]
Background: There is limited information on the volume of influenza-associated mortality in Russia. Methods: Using previously developed methodology (Goldstein et al., Epidemiology 2012), we regressed the monthly rates of mortality for respiratory causes, circulatory causes, and for certain infectious and parasitic diseases (available from the Russian

Engineered Lactobacillus acidophilus (LH@LA) is developed via in situ polymerization to co‐load lactate oxidase (LOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). This system preserves LA activity, evades macrophage phagocytosis, and synergizes LA metabolism with enzyme cascades to enhance immunity, reduce tumor ATP, suppress PD‐L1 expression and AKT‐mTOR ...
