Applying Unique Molecular Identifiers in Next Generation Sequencing Reveals a Constrained Viral Quasispecies Evolution under Cross-Reactive Antibody Pressure Targeting Long Alpha Helix of Hemagglutinin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To overcome yearly efforts and costs for the production of seasonal influenza vaccines, new approaches for the induction of broadly protective and long-lasting immune responses have been developed in the past decade. To warrant safety and efficacy of the

Influenza and Universal Vaccine Research in China

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Influenza viruses usually cause seasonal influenza epidemics and influenza pandemics, resulting in acute respiratory illness and, in severe cases, multiple organ complications and even death, posing a serious global and human health burden. Compared with other countries, China has a large population base and a large number of influenza cases and deaths.

Self-Assembly M2e-Based Peptide Nanovaccine Confers Broad Protection Against Influenza Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The extracellular domain of influenza M2 protein (M2e) is highly conserved and is a promising target for development of universal influenza vaccines. Here, we synthesized a peptide vaccine consisting of M2e epitope linked to a fibrillizing peptide, which

Virus-like particles as universal influenza vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Vaccines, 2012
Current influenza vaccines are primarily targeted to induce immunity to the influenza virus strain-specific hemagglutinin antigen and are not effective in controlling outbreaks of new pandemic viruses. An approach for developing universal vaccines is to present highly conserved antigenic epitopes in an immunogenic conformation such as virus-like ...

Novel universal influenza virus vaccine approaches [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2016
Seasonal influenza virus vaccines have to be re-formulated and re-administered on an annual basis due to antigenic drift of the influenza virus surface glycoproteins. In addition, seasonal vaccines show limited efficacy against novel pandemic influenza virus strains, and producing tailored vaccines for these strains in a timely manner is challenging ...

Progress on adenovirus-vectored universal influenza vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2015
Influenza virus (IFV) infection causes serious health problems and heavy financial burdens each year worldwide. The classical inactivated influenza virus vaccine (IIVV) and live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) must be updated regularly to match the new strains that evolve due to antigenic drift and antigenic shift.

Protective efficacy of a universal influenza mRNA vaccine against the challenge of H1 and H5 influenza A viruses in mice

open access: yesmLife, 2023
Current influenza vaccines need to be updated annually owing to constant antigenic drift in the globular head of the viral surface hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein. The immunogenic subdominant stem domain of HA is highly conserved and can be recognized by

Influenza and memory T cells : how to awake the force [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Annual influenza vaccination is an effective way to prevent human influenza. Current vaccines are mainly focused on eliciting a strain-matched humoral immune response, requiring yearly updates, and do not provide protection for all vaccinated individuals.

Developing Universal Influenza Vaccines: Hitting the Nail, Not Just on the Head [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.
