Cationic and Biocompatible Polymer/Lipid Nanoparticles as Immunoadjuvants
Nanostructures have been of paramount importance for developing immunoadjuvants. They must be cationic and non-cytotoxic, easily assembling with usually oppositely charged antigens such as proteins, haptens or nucleic acids for use in vaccines.

This study aimed to analyze the cryoprotective effect of a ovalbumin (OVA) and β-cyclodextrin (βCD) mixture (3:1, OVA/βCD) on the structure, rheology and gelling properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) during 90 days of frozen storage. A mixture of OVA/

Conformational Changes Involved in the Switch from Ovalbumin to S-Ovalbumin
Abstract For the first time a comparative study on conformational differences between native oval buminand its heat-stable form, called S-ovalbumin. using small angle x-ray scattering, is reported. To detect a different pathway in the folding mechanism of the two proteins, scattering measurements have been performed on ovalbumin and S ...

CD8+ T cell memory is sustained in mice by hepatic stellate cells
HSC role in memory CD8+ T cell maintenance. Abstract Background and Aims Long‐lasting immunological memory is the ultimate goal of vaccination. Homeostatic maintenance of memory CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (MemCD8TCs) is thought to be mediated by IL‐15/IL‐15R heterodimer (15HD)‐expressing myeloid cells.
