Enhancing Immunogenicity of a Thermostable, Efficacious SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Formulation through Oligomerization and Adjuvant Choice

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Currently deployed SARS-CoV-2 vaccines all require storage at refrigerated or sub-zero temperatures. We demonstrate that after month-long incubation at 37 °C, solubilization, and formulation with squalene-in-water emulsion adjuvant, a stabilized receptor

The intracerebral injection of Aβ1-42 oligomers does not invariably alter seizure susceptibility in mice

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectivesEpileptiform activity and seizures are present in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and genetic animal models of AD. Amyloid beta 1-42 (Aβ1-42) oligomers are thought to be crucial in AD and can cause neuronal hyperexcitability in vitro ...

Pathologic light chain amyloidosis oligomer detection in urinary extracellular vesicles as a diagnostic tool for response and progression of disease

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
Light Chain (AL) Amyloidosis is a plasma cell dyscrasia producing amyloidogenic light chains (LC) that misfold and form amyloid deposits that cause damage in vital organs, primarily the heart and kidneys.
