A Modular Design of a Cholera Toxin B Subunit‐Scaffolded Sub‐Virion Nanoparticle Vaccine Against West Nile Virus

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
A recombinant West Nile virus (WNV) subunit vaccine was developed by displaying ED3 on a CTB scaffold. The fusion protein formed soluble nanoparticles in E. coli, eliciting strong, balanced, and specific neutralizing antibodies without cross‐reactivity, offering a safe, scalable subunit vaccine platform.

Assessing Risk Thresholds in Controlled Human Infection Models (CHIM)

Bioethics, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 519-529, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Controlled Human Infection Models (CHIMs) are a type of clinical trial involving deliberately exposing human volunteers to an infectious agent. Compared to studies of natural infection, CHIMs offers distinctive benefits, from the ability to study presymptomatic infection to a direct assessment of the efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics in a ...

A Next‐Generation ELISA for the Detection of Anti‐(Para)Nodal Antibodies in Autoimmune Nodopathy and COVID‐19 Vaccinated Individuals

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Autoimmune nodopathy (AN) is a subtype of antibody‐mediated inflammatory neuropathy targeting the node of Ranvier (NoR). Diagnosis requires detection of anti‐(para)nodal autoantibodies like contactin‐1 and neurofascin‐155 via ELISA or cell‐based assays, but protocols are inconsistent. Causes of node autoimmunity are unknown,

Unravelling the biochemical aspects of the interaction between ticks and Leishmania using a tick cell line

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 350-359, June 2026.
Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...
