Development of Universal Influenza Vaccines Targeting Conserved Viral Proteins

open access: yesVaccines, 2019
Vaccination is still the most efficient way to prevent an infection with influenza viruses. Nevertheless, existing commercial vaccines face serious limitations such as availability during epidemic outbreaks and their efficacy. Existing seasonal influenza

An epitope-optimized human H3N2 influenza vaccine induces broadly protective immunity in mice and ferrets

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2022
There is a crucial need for an improved H3N2 influenza virus vaccine due to low vaccine efficacy rates and increased morbidity and mortality associated with H3N2-dominated influenza seasons.

Progress in the Development of Universal Influenza Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Influenza viruses pose a significant threat to human health. They are responsible for a large number of deaths annually and have a serious impact on the global economy. There are numerous influenza virus subtypes, antigenic variations occur continuously, and epidemic trends are difficult to predict—all of which lead to poor outcomes of routine ...

Preferential amplification of CD8 effector-T cells after transcutaneous application of an inactivated influenza vaccine: a randomized phase I trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Current conventional vaccination approaches do not induce potent CD8 T-cell responses for fighting mostly variable viral diseases such as influenza, avian influenza viruses or HIV.

The prospects and challenges of universal vaccines for influenza [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2013
Vaccination is the most effective way to reduce the impact of epidemic as well as pandemic influenza. However, the licensed inactivated influenza vaccine induces strain-specific immunity and must be updated annually. When novel viruses appear, matched vaccines are not likely to be available in time for the first wave of a pandemic.

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.

An Intranasal Virus-Like Particle Vaccine Broadly Protects Mice from Multiple Subtypes of Influenza A Virus

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Influenza virus infections are a global public health problem, with a significant impact of morbidity and mortality from both annual epidemics and pandemics.

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
