The safety of attenuated and recombinant nasal influenza vaccines in terms of the development of secondary bacterial superinfection

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2019
Introduction. Influenza is a severe viral disease. The most common post-influenza complication is pneumonia. Earlier, we developed an experimental mouse model of viralbacterial pneumonia induced by successive infection with influenza virus and St. aureus,

Superior neutralizing antibody response and protection in mice vaccinated with heterologous DNA prime and virus like particle boost against HPAI H5N1 virus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Although DNA plasmid and virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines have been individually tested against highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 viruses, the combination of both vaccines into a heterologous prime-boost strategy against HPAI ...

Dry Formulation of Virus-Like Particles in Electrospun Nanofibers

Vaccines, 2021
Biologics can be combined with liquid polymer materials and electrospun to produce a dry nanofibrous scaffold. Unlike spray-drying and freeze-drying, electrospinning minimizes the physiological stress on sensitive materials, and nanofiber mat properties ...

Impedance-compensated grid synchronisation for extending the stability range of weak grids with voltage source converters [PDF]

, 2016
This paper demonstrates how the range of stable power transfer in weak grids with voltage source converters (VSCs) can be extended by modifying the grid synchronisation mechanism of a conventional synchronous reference frame phase locked loop (PLL).

Enhanced Immunogenicity of an Influenza Ectodomain Matrix-2 Protein Virus-like Particle (M2e VLP) Using Polymeric Microparticles for Vaccine Delivery

Viruses, 2022
In this study, we demonstrate how encapsulating a conserved influenza ectodomain matrix-2 protein virus-like particle (M2e5x VLP) into a pre-crosslinked bovine serum albumin (BSA) polymeric matrix enhances in vitro antigen immunogenicity and in vivo ...

Promotion of Cellular and Humoral Immunity against Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus by Immunization with Virus-Like Particles Encapsulated in Monophosphoryl Lipid A and Liposomes

Vaccines, 2020
Virus-like particles (VLPs) have emerged as promising vaccine candidates against foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). However, such vaccines provide a relatively low level of protection against FMD virus (FMDV) because of their poor immunogenicity.

Alterations of membrane curvature during influenza virus budding [PDF]

, 2014
Influenza A virus belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family. It is an enveloped virus that contains a segmented and negative-sense RNA genome. Influenza A viruses cause annual epidemics and occasional major pandemics, are a major cause of morbidity and ...
