“Biotechnology company HilleVax on Monday said it will halt development of an experimental norovirus vaccine in infants after the shot proved ineffective in a large trial, sending shares sliding… While development in infants is now discontinued, the Boston company said it is “exploring the potential” to continue testing HIL-214 or another candidate called HIL-216 in adults.”

Many vaccines, including the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine, contain adjuvants that stimulate the immune system to mount a stronger defense against infection. One of the strongest adjuvants, an extract of Chilean soap bark plant, is so difficult to produce that it costs several hundred million dollars per kilogram. 💸 Researchers at University of California, Berkeley and Berkeley Lab have harnessed synthetic biology to produce the active ingredient of soap bark, a molecule called QS-21, in yeast. This feat promises to make one of the most effective vaccine adjuvants available more broadly, and lower the cost of vaccines in general. 👏 Learn more about their findings below ⬇️ #CoESB #SyntheticBiology #SynbioNews #EngineeredBiology Australian Research Council

Great work by James Edgar and the team! Good to see how the small world of #extracellularvesicles is expanding day by day. As a student who works on these small extracellular vesicles, I can imagine the contribution of this in bridging the knowledge gap of EV research and its application. #exosomes #vaccine #bioengineering
Small EVs as a multi-subunit vaccine: Hannah Kate Jackson, PhD, James Edgar and collaborators developed cell lines that were modified to produce small extracellular vesicles containing either the receptor-binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein, an antigenic region from the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid, or a combination of both. Their efficiency was subsequently tested in a murine model, with results indicating the strong potential of engineered EVs as an alternative platform for vaccine development https://lnkd.in/eeuurCem also authored by Heather Long, Juan Carlos Yam-Puc, Roberta Palmulli, Tracey A.

2024 updated World Health Organization Bacterial pathogens of public health importance to guide research, development and strategies to prevent and control antimicrobial resistance. At IMMUNETHEP, we are developing vaccines and monoclonal antibodies that will fight some of the pathogens in this list. We have very promissing preclinical results with our PNV vaccine that will soon enter clinical trials. The bacterial virulence mechanism that we target is shared by multiple bacteria and our approach might be applicable to more species in this list. #immunethep #vaccines #monoclonalantibodies #amr #antibioticresistance

Alhamdulillah Another publication Reverse vaccinology is an innovative approach that involves identifying potential vaccine candidates by analyzing the genome of a pathogen. With the emergence of the Langya Henipavirus, applying this method could help in the development of a peptide-based vaccine. By analyzing the virus's genome, we identified specific glycoprotein G that are crucial for its survival or virulence. These proteins were further examined to predict epitopes and tested for their ability to induce an immune response against the virus. we found epitopes to be remarkably non-toxic, immunogenic, antigenic, and non-allergic. This methodology holds promise for the development of computational vaccines as a potent strategy against pathogenic microbes like the Langya Henipavirus, owing to its capacity to successfully cover a huge population. These results could ultimately help vaccine researchers to create a highly effective peptide-based vaccine.
