    Wang et al. Molecular Cancer (2021) 20:33 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12943-021-01311-z REVIEW Open Access mRNA vaccine: a potential therapeutic strategy Yang Wang† , Ziqi Zhang† , Jingwen Luo† , Xuejiao Han† , Yuquan Wei and Xiawei Wei* Abstract mRNA vaccines have tremendous potential to fight against cancer and viral diseases due to superiorities in safety, efficacy and industrial production. In recent decades, we have witnessed the development of different kinds of mRNAs by sequence optimization to overcome the disadvantage of excessive mRNA immunogenicity, instability and inefficiency. Based on the immunological study, mRNA vaccines are coupled with immunologic adjuvant and various delivery strategies. Except for sequence optimization, the assistance of mRNA-delivering strategies is another method to stabilize mRNAs and improve their efficacy. The understanding of increasing the antigen reactiveness gains insight into mRNA-induced innate immunity and adaptive immunity without antibody-dependent enhancement activity. Therefore, to address the problem, scientists further exploited carrier-based mRNA vaccines (lipid-based delivery, polymer-based delivery, peptide-based delivery, virus-like replicon particle and cationic nanoemulsion), naked mRNA vaccines and dendritic cells-based mRNA vaccines. The article will discuss the molecular biology of mRNA vaccines and underlying anti-virus and anti-tumor mechanisms, with an introduction of their immunological phenomena, delivery strategies, their importance on Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and related clinical trials against cancer and viral diseases. Finally, we will discuss the challenge of mRNA vaccines against bacterial and parasitic diseases.

  • Polymeric Biomaterial Drug Delivery Systems for Glioblastoma Therapy and Vaccines
    POLYMERIC BIOMATERIAL DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS FOR GLIOBLASTOMA THERAPY AND VACCINES Kathryn Margaret Moore A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the School of Medicine. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Kristy M. Ainslie David Zaharoff Yevgeny Brudno Shawn D. Hingtgen Aaron Anselmo 2020 Kathryn Margaret Moore ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kathryn Margaret Moore: Polymeric Biomaterial Drug Delivery Systems for Glioblastoma Therapy and Vaccines (Under the direction of Kristy M. Ainslie) Polymeric biomaterial drug delivery systems have been explored to improve therapies for a wide range of diseases, including cancer and infectious diseases, by providing control over delivery of therapeutic cargo. Scaffolds composed of polymeric biomaterials have been used to increase efficacy of cell therapies by promoting cell implantation and viability thereafter. Both scaffolds and particles can be loaded with small molecules and biological agents to enhance delivery to target cells. This dissertation aims to explore the use of polymeric biomaterials to improve both glioblastoma therapy and vaccines. In the case of glioblastoma, the most common primary brain tumor, local drug delivery is a beneficial therapeutic strategy because its bypasses the blood brain barrier and allows for direct access to the site of tumor recurrence. Herein, scaffolds were fabricated by the process of electrospinning and characterized for the delivery of tumoricidal agent producing stem cells and chemotherapeutics into the glioblastoma surgical resection cavity. This work places a strong emphasis on the impact of scaffold degradation on the local glioblastoma therapies by utilizing the tunable polymer, acetalated dextran.

    Vaccine containing immunologic adjuvants with a wide range of activity to provide protection against COVID-19 Author: Mulugeta Berhanu, Ethiopian Agricultural Transformation Agency Email: [email protected]; Tel:+251921433836 Abstract COVID-19 is a devastating viral disease which can be prevented by vaccination. Immunologic adjuvants are key to develop an effective vaccines against infectious diseases in human and non- human primates. Vaccines containing an appropriate adjuvants are crucial for the prevention of various infectious diseases which are the biggest threats to human and animal health. This paper proposes a wide spectrum immunologic adjuvant for vaccine development against COVID-19 which is the current global problem. It has been reported that a wide range of immune cells are involved in the body’s response to SARS CoV2 infection. Therefore, vaccine with a wide- spectrum immunologic adjuvant can be used to provide protection against COVID-19. Lack of adjuvants that can induce the required immune responses is a serious impediment to vaccine development against this devastating virus. The approved adjuvants such as aluminum salts and MF59 exhibit a narrow range of activity. In an attempt to solve this problem, it is crucial to develop new adjuvants which can trigger a wide range of immune cells. Key words: Adjuvants for COVID-19 vaccines, Aluminum salts, COVID-19, Immunologic adjuvants, MF-59, SARS CoV2, Vaccine development against COVID-19, Vaccine with a wide- spectrum immunologic adjuvant 1. Introduction Vaccine has played a critical role in protecting the global community from various infectious diseases. Vaccine development against COVID-19 is hindered by lack of approved adjuvants that can induce the desired immune responses.

Both authors contributed equally to this study. y Received: 1 June 2020; Accepted: 16 June 2020; Published: 17 June 2020 Abstract: Despite successful treatments, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections continue to be a significant world health problem. High treatment costs, the high number of undiagnosed individuals, and the difficulty to access to treatment, particularly in marginalized susceptible populations, make it improbable to achieve the global control of the virus in the absence of an effective preventive vaccine. Current vaccine development is mostly focused on weakly immunogenic subunits, such as surface glycoproteins or non-structural proteins, in the case of HCV. Adjuvants are critical components of vaccine formulations that increase immunogenic performance. As we learn more information about how adjuvants work, it is becoming clear that proper stimulation of innate immunity is crucial to achieving a successful immunization. Several hepatic cell types participate in the early innate immune response and the subsequent inflammation and activation of the adaptive response, principally hepatocytes, and antigen-presenting cells (Kupffer cells, and dendritic cells). Innate pattern recognition receptors on these cells, mainly toll-like receptors, are targets for new promising adjuvants. Moreover, complex adjuvants that stimulate different components of the innate immunity are showing encouraging results and are being incorporated in current vaccines.

Received: 8 March 2019; Accepted: 25 April 2019; Published: 30 April 2019 Abstract: DNA vaccines present one of the most cost-effective platforms to develop global vaccines, which have been tested for nearly three decades in preclinical and clinical settings with some success in the clinic. However, one of the major challenges for the development of DNA vaccines is their poor immunogenicity in humans, which has led to refinements in DNA delivery, dosage in prime/boost regimens and the inclusion of adjuvants to enhance their immunogenicity. In this review, we focus on adjuvants that can enhance the immunogenicity of DNA encoded antigens and highlight the development of a novel cytolytic DNA platform encoding a truncated mouse perforin. The application of this innovative DNA technology has considerable potential in the development of effective vaccines.

Abstract A double chimeric peptide vaccine, targeting two peptides (Fba and Met6) expressed on the cell surface of Candida albicans, can induce high degree of protection against disseminated candidiasis in mice. Although immunization with each individual peptide vaccine was effective in protection against the disease, immunization with the double chimeric peptide vaccine, not two- peptide mixture, induced better protective immunity than that induced by each individual peptide vaccine. Passive transfer of immune sera from peptide immunized mice demonstrated that the protection was medicated by peptide-specific antibodies. Furthermore, we combined two protective MAbs, including Fba peptide specific IgM E2-9 and Met6 peptide specific IgG3 M2-4, into one cocktail and evaluated it for protective efficacy, side by side with each protective MAb given alone.

Livingston1 Abstract Purpose: To determine the clinical toxicities and antibody response against sTnand tumor cells expressing sTnfollowing immunization of high-risk breast cancer patients with clustered sTn-KLH [sTn(c)-KLH] conjugate plus QS-21. Experimental Design:Twenty-seven patients with no evidence of disease and with a history of either stage IV no evidence of disease, rising tumor markers, stage II (z4 positive axillary nodes), or stage III disease received a total of five injections each during weeks 1, 2, 3, 7, and 19. Immuni- zations consisted of sTn(c)-KLH conjugate containing 30, 10, 3, or 1 Ag sTn(c) plus 100 Ag QS-21. Induction of IgM and IgG antibodies against synthetic sTn(c) and natural sTn on ovine submaxillary mucin were measured before and after therapy. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analyses assessed reactivity of antibodies to LSC and MCF-7 tumor cells. Results: The most common toxicities were transient local skin reactions at the injection site and mild flu-like symptoms. All patients developed significant IgM and IgG antibody titers against sTn(c). Antibody titers against ovine submaxillary mucin were usually of lower titers. IgM reactiv- ity with LSC tumor cells was observed in 21patients and with MCF-7 cells in 13 patients.
