Epitope-Specific Anti-hCG Vaccines on a Virus Like Particle Platform. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The possibility of a contraceptive vaccine targeting human chorionic gonadotropin has long been recognized, but never fully realized. Here we describe an epitope-specific approach based on immunogenic display of hCG-derived peptides on virus-like ...

Hemagglutinin sequence conservation guided stem immunogen design from influenza A H3 subtype [PDF]

, 2015
Seasonal epidemics caused by influenza A (H1 and H3 subtypes) and B viruses are a major global health threat. The traditional, trivalent influenza vaccines have limited efficacy because of rapid antigenic evolution of the circulating viruses.

Versatile virus-like particle carrier for epitope based vaccines. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Recombinant proteins and in particular single domains or peptides are often poorly immunogenic unless conjugated to a carrier protein. Virus-like-particles are a very efficient means to confer high immunogenicity to antigens.
