The self‐adjuvanting vaccine—comprising a covalent conjugate of antigen and adjuvant—was formulated into cationic lipid nanoparticles smaller than 100 nm to facilitate uptake by immune cells, with supplemental adjuvants incorporated to modulate immune responses.

Why Is MS a More Frequent Complication of EBV Infection in Females?
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a T helper (Th) cell‐mediated disease that targets central nervous system (CNS) white matter. This disease affects three times more females than males. For many years, the etiology of MS was not well understood and the exact nature of the autoimmune reaction was speculative.

Antigen Complexed with a TLR9 Agonist Bolsters c-Myc and mTORC1 Activity in Germinal Center B Lymphocytes. [PDF]
The germinal center (GC) is the anatomical site where humoral immunity evolves. B cells undergo cycles of proliferation and selection to produce high-affinity Abs against Ag. Direct linkage of a TLR9 agonist (CpG) to a T-dependent Ag increases the number

The Brain‐Gut Axis in Parkinson's Disease Pathology
Exposure to environmental toxins induces gut dysbiosis, increases intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, immune activation, and oxidative stress, promoting α‐syn misfolding and propagation. Brainstem DMV neurons exhibit α‐syn pathology, dysregulating neuronal excitability and vagal control of GI functions.

Inhaled pretreatment of mouse lungs with immunomodulatory Pam2ODN results in lung epithelial cell epigenetic reprogramming that is associated with attenuation of house dust mite extract (HDM)‐induced cDC2s and moDCs expansion in the lung, causing tolerance against HDM sensitization and restricting Th2‐cell‐induced airway eosinophilic allergic ...

Leishmania Extracellular Vesicles as a Preventive Vaccine Platform Against Leishmaniasis
The potential of Leishmania‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a vaccine platform was investigated, emphasizing an affordable, GMP‐compliant production and purification method. Immunization with EV vaccines, either unadjuvanted or combined with α‐galactosylceramide (αGC), induced robust humoral and cellular immune responses, conferring protection ...

ABSTRACT Despite the considerable potential of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) vaccines, their clinical efficacy has been hampered by inadequate mucosal immunity and suboptimal Th1/Th17 polarization. To address this, we engineered a novel nano‐adjuvant system using LPS‐modified recombinant outer membrane vesicles (rOMVs) derived from H.

ABSTRACT Covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) represents the central obstacle to achieving a functional cure for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Poly6, a peptide encoded within the HBV genome, was investigated for antiviral efficacy in hepatocyte‐derived cell lines, hydrodynamic injection models, and HBV transgenic mice.

Abstract Cathelicidins are evolutionarily conserved host defence peptides known for their dual antimicrobial and immunomodulatory functions. Among them, LL‐37 in humans and CRAMP in rodents have emerged as crucial regulators of both mucosal immunity and CNS inflammation.
