Coinfections with porcine circovirus types 2, 3, and 4 (PCV2, PCV3, PCV4) are increasingly being detected in the swine industry. However, there is no commercially available vaccine which prevents coinfection PCV2, PCV4. The development of a expressing capsid (Cap) fusion proteins multiple PCVs represents promising approach for broadly preventing infection PCVs. In this study, we developed PCV subunit candidate (Cap 2-3-4) by predicting, screening, fusing antigenic epitopes Cap Immunoprotection assays showed that prokaryotic expression 2-3-4 could effectively induce high levels PCV4 Cap-specific antibodies successfully neutralize both PCV2 PCV3. Furthermore, demonstrated potent ability to activate cellular immunity thus prevent lung damage mice. This study provides new option broad vaccines against

ABSTRACT Low‐cost and safe vaccines are needed to fill the vaccine inequity gap for future pandemics. Pichia pastoris is an ideal expression system recombinant protein production due its cost‐effective easy‐to‐scale‐up process. Here, we developed a next‐generation SARS‐CoV2 Omicron BA.1‐based candidate expressed in P. . The receptor binding domain of BA.1 spike (RBD‐Omicron) was produced at 0.35 g/L supernatant. With 60% recovery after two‐step purification, RBD‐Omicron showed 99% purity. After vitro characterisation purified via chromatography, mass spectrometry, calorimetry surface plasmon resonance‐based methods, it injected into mice immunization studies. Three different doses Alum CpG adjuvanted were investigated 10 μg gave highest antigenicity. two vaccination, IgG titers serum reached more than 6 These antibodies also recognized earlier (Delta Plus: B.1.617.2) later (Eris: EG.5, Pirola: BA.2.86) variants. long‐term immunological response measured by analyzing antibody T‐cell splenocytes 60 weeks. Interestingly, Th1 significantly high even year. subvariants dominantly circulating world, so sub‐lineage‐based can be used RBD‐Omicron‐based this study suitable technology transfer transition clinic.

Over the past 3 years, SARS-CoV-2 Omicron has been circulating globally with emergence of multiple subvariants, including BA.5, BA.5.2, XBB, XBB.1, EG.5.1, HK.3, BA.2.86, JN.1, and KP.2. To combat these several vaccines based on receptor-binding domain (RBD) dimers have developed; however, RBD dimer require frequent updates to cope new variants. In contrast, development a safe, effective, broad-spectrum vaccine against latest JN.1 KP.2, would be one-size-fits-all solution. Here, we designed BA.4/5 RBD-PC7A conjugate micelles by displaying in PC7A micelles. Remarkably, elicited potent neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) rabbits, effectively XBB.1.18, HK.3 infections. Moreover, alone were able induce NAbs mice BA.5 variant. When cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) adjuvant was added electrostatically adsorbed micelles, there significant increase antibody titers IgG1, IgG2b, IgG2c. This enhancement facilitated broad neutralization various strains, Furthermore, CpG protected golden hamsters from infection BA.5.2 strain. study presents broadly nanovaccine that includes antigen adjuvant.

The Omicron BA.5 variant of SARS-CoV-2 is known for its high transmissibility and capacity to evade immunity provided by vaccine protection against the (original) Wuhan strain. In our prior research, we successfully produced receptor-binding domain (RBD) spike protein in an E. coli expression system. Extensive biophysical characterization indicated that, even without glycosylation, RBD maintained native-like conformational properties. current study explores immunogenicity neutralization coli-expressed using a mouse model. Administration three doses any adjuvant elicited titer antisera up 7.3 × 105 1.6 106 after booster shot. Immunization with notably enhanced population CD44+CD62L+ T cells, indicating generation cell memory. vitro assays demonstrated antisera’s protective efficacy through significant inhibition interaction between human receptor, ACE2, potent pseudovirus. These findings underscore potential as viable candidate SARS-CoV-2.
