Cholesteryl Pullulan Encapsulated TNF-α Nanoparticles Are an Effective Mucosal Vaccine Adjuvant against Influenza Virus
We encapsulated tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), a major proinflammatory cytokine, into cholesteryl pullulan (CHP) to prepare TNF/CHP nanoparticles. In this report, we describe the immune-enhancing capability of the nanoparticles to act as a vaccine adjuvant. TNF/CHP nanoparticles showed excellent storage stability and enhanced host immune responses to external immunogens. The nanoparticles wer...
متن کاملRole of imiquimod as adjuvant for vaccination against Leishmania major infection in BALB/c mice
Various adjuvants in combination with different antigens have been utilized as a vaccine candidate against leishmaniasis. However, the search for ideal adjuvants is still pursued due to the inefficiencies of current compounds. In the present study, the effect of imiquimod, as an adjuvant, is studied with soluble Leishmania antigens (SLA) in BALB/c mice. Four groups of mice were immunized with S...
متن کاملComparison of a novel microcrystalline tyrosine adjuvant with aluminium hydroxide for enhancing vaccination against seasonal influenza
BACKGROUND Vaccination against seasonal influenza strains is recommended for "high risk" patient groups such as infants, elderly and those with respiratory or circulatory diseases. However, efficacy of the trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) is poor in many cases and in the event of an influenza pandemic, mono-valent vaccines have been rapidly developed and deployed. One of the main issues with u...
متن کاملMucosal vaccination against tuberculosis using inert bioparticles.
Needle-free, mucosal immunization is a highly desirable strategy for vaccination against many pathogens, especially those entering through the respiratory mucosa, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Unfortunately, mucosal vaccination against tuberculosis (TB) is impeded by a lack of suitable adjuvants and/or delivery platforms that could induce a protective immune response in humans. Here, we r...
