Towards the Immunoproteome of Neisseria meningitidis

PLoS ONE, 2009
Despite the introduction of conjugated polysaccharide vaccines for many of the Neisseria meningitidis serogroups, neisserial infections continue to cause septicaemia and meningitis across the world. This is in part due to the difficulties in developing a, cross-protective vaccine that is effective against all serogroups, including serogroup B ...

Virus‐Mediated Self‐Assembly of Functional Cyclodextrins for Antiviral Inhibition

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 38, 14 September 2026.
A sialic acid (SA)‐functionalized cyclodextrin (CD) self‐assembles on SARS‐CoV‐2 through ligand–receptor recognition, nucleating cooperative supramolecular polymer growth that blocks infection. The adaptive assembly requires both ligand binding and host–guest polymerization, remains active across variants, and can be tuned by coassembly, establishing ...

Outbreak of Sexually Transmitted Nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis–Associated Urethritis, Vietnam

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We report on an outbreak of nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis–associated urethritis, primarily among men who have sex with men in southern Vietnam. Nearly 50% of N. meningitidis isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin.

Organism resembling Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
A problem isolate resembling Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis is reported. Growth and biochemical characteristics indicated the organism to be N. meningitidis, whereas serological characteristics indicated it to be N. gonorrhoeae. This vaginal isolate may be a genetically transformed gonococcus with the ability to utilize maltose ...

Purification of Disassembled Capsid Protein by Hydroxyapatite Chromatography Enhances Virus‐Like Particle Recovery

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virus‐like particles (VLPs) are a promising modality with extensive applications in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine design. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines are one such example where VLP vaccine applications have led to the successful reduction in HPV‐associated diseases, such as cervical cancer.

A systematic review of the diagnostic accuracy of Loop-mediated-isothermal AMPlification (LAMP) in the diagnosis of invasive meningococcal disease in children

BMC Pediatrics, 2019
Background The early recognition of meningococcal disease in children is vital. During the prodrome however, meningococcal infection presents similarly to many self-limiting viral infections. This mandates a cautious approach with many children receiving

Programmable three‐state nanoreactor for spatiotemporally controlled tumor therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The OMVs are shielded with a biocompatible Da–Ca shell, which prolongs its circulation period and promotes intratumoral accumulation. Importantly, the biocompatible Da–Ca shell can be controllably disintegrated in tumor microenvironment by using laser irradiation, generating in situ hyperthermia and releasing Ca2+.
