Nano letters (Print), 2016 Virus-like particles are used to encapsulate drugs, imaging agents, enzymes, and other biologically active molecules in order to enhance their function. However, the size of most virus-like particles is inflexible, precluding the design of appropriately ...

Virus-like particle vaccines against BK and JC polyomaviruses [PDF]
, 2018 Nearly all healthy adults are asymptomatically infected with human polyomaviruses. In immunosuppressed individuals, the infection can reactivate and cause disease.

Immunization of Swine with Virus-like Replicon Particles: Proof of Concept [PDF]
, 2007 Pigs were inoculated with virus-like replicon particle (VRP) vaccines expressing the influenza hemagglutinin (HA) protein. A robust antibody response was present following the inoculation.

Kidney Fibrosis In Vitro and In Vivo Models: Path Toward Physiologically Relevant Humanized Models
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review discusses kidney diseases with a focus on kidney fibrosis and the models currently used. It highlights the limitations of animal and 2D in vitro models in replicating human kidney anatomy and physiology. Consequently, there is a significant need for humanized 3D in vitro models, such as 3D cell aggregates, membranes and hydrogels, on‐chip ...

An Underlying Asymmetry within Particle-size Segregation [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We experimentally study particle scale dynamics during segregation of a bidisperse mixture under oscillatory shear. Large and small particles show an underlying asymmetry that is dependent on the local particle concentration, with small particles segregating faster in regions of many large particles and large particles segregating slower in regions of ...

Virus like particle-based vaccines against emerging infectious disease viruses
Virologica Sinica, 2016 Emerging infectious diseases are major threats to human health. Most severe viral disease outbreaks occur in developing regions where health conditions are poor. With increased international travel and business, the possibility of eventually transmitting

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This research highlights a novel application of protein nanoparticles to effectively modulate the strength, breadth, and bias of an immune response against influenza virus. Nanoparticles precisely co‐delivering antigen (H5) and multiple adjuvants (CpG and FliCc) present a way to improve and direct prophylactic immune responses which can be applicable ...

Electromagnetic Radiation and Motion of Real Particle [PDF]
arXiv, 2000 Relativistically covariant equation of motion for real dust particle under the action of electromagnetic radiation is derived. The particle is neutral in charge. Equation of motion is expressed in terms of particle's optical properties, standardly used in optics for stationary particles.

Influenza virus-like particle vaccines
Expert Review of Vaccines, 2009 Enveloped virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines containing influenza hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) antigens are produced easily in insect or mammalian cells via the simultaneous expression of HA and NA along with a viral core protein, such as influenza matrix (M1) or a retroviral Gag protein.
