The aim of the research is to increase the applicability of lipopeptides as drugs. To this end, non-ionic triblock copolymers, namely poloxamers, were applied. The physico-chemical properties of poloxamers vary depending on the length of the blocks.

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-G is a nonclassical HLA class I molecule that has an immunosuppressive effect mediated by binding to immune inhibitory leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) B1 and LILRB2. A conventional HLA-G isoform, HLA-G1, forms a heterotrimeric complex composed of a heavy chain (α1-α3 domains), β2-microglobulin (β2m) and a cognate peptide. One of the other isoforms, HLA-G2, lacks a α2 domain or β2m to form a nondisulfide-linked homodimer, and its ectodomain specifically binds to LILRB2 expressed in human monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells.

Background: The adenovirus-vaccine platform has come to prominence with the COVID-19 vaccination campaigns. The objective of this study was to validate a formulation that was suitable for lyophilisation and long-term storage at 5 (2-8) °C.
Methods: Vaccine stability was assessed up to five years at 5 °C using a lyophilised formulation of the chimpanzee-adenovirus vector ChAd155 encoding a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) antigen.

Background: Mycobacterium bovis BCG is the human tuberculosis vaccine and is the oldest vaccine still in use today with over 4 billion people vaccinated since 1921. The BCG vaccine has also been investigated experimentally in cattle and wildlife by various routes including oral and parenteral. Thus far, oral vaccination studies of cattle have involved liquid BCG or liquid BCG incorporated into a lipid matrix.

Herpes zoster is an acute infectious skin disease caused by the reactivation of latent varicella-zoster virus, vaccination, such as subunit vaccine with good safety, can effectively prevent shingles through increasing immunity of the body. However, protein antigens are prone to degradation and inactivation, which alone is generally not sufficient to induce potent immune effect. In this study, the liposomal vaccine platform modified with mPLA (TLR4 agonist) was developed to improve the immunogenicity of glycoprotein E (VZV-gE) derived from herpes zoster virus.
