The rotavirus VP5*/VP8* conformational transition permeabilizes membranes to Ca2+

open access: yesPLOS Pathogens
Rotaviruses infect cells by delivering into the cytosol a transcriptionally active inner capsid particle (a "double-layer particle": DLP). Delivery is the function of a third, outer layer, which drives uptake from the cell surface into small vesicles from which the DLPs escape.

Gastrointestinal Permeation Enhancers Beyond Sodium Caprate and SNAC ‐ What is Coming Next?

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 33, September 4, 2024.
This review focuses on the main challenge of oral peptide delivery ‐ overcoming the epithelial barrier. With many peptide drugs in development, there is a huge unmet need for more efficient intestinal permeation enhancers (PEs). Biophysiological fundamentals are explained while highlighting possible new targets.

Revolutionizing disease treatment through bioengineered probiotics and glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP‐1) based strategies: A path towards effective cures

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 280-300, September 2024.
The advancement in technologies has enabled bioengineering of probiotics for targeting particular cells and tissues instead of the entire body. GLP‐1 peptides which are incretin hormones have been shown to be more effective when combined with engineered probiotics.

Safety and immunogenicity of a parenterally administered rotavirus VP8 subunit vaccine in healthy adults

open access: yesVaccine, 2015
The P2-VP8 subunit vaccine for the prevention of rotavirus gastroenteritis is comprised of a truncated VP8 subunit protein from the rotavirus Wa strain (G1[P8]) fused to the tetanus toxin P2 epitope, and adsorbed on aluminum hydroxide for intramuscular administration.Three groups of 16 adults were randomized to receive three injections of P2-VP8 (12 ...

Immunological response to recombinant VP8* subunit protein of bovine rotavirus in pregnant cattle

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 1995
Bovine rotavirus VP8*, N-terminal trypsin cleavage product of VP4, was produced in Escherichia coli. To examine if this antigen could induce neutralizing antibody responses, different species of animals were immunized with the recombinant VP8* protein. The VP8* antigen was found to stimulate a neutralizing immune response in rabbits.
