Abstract
The present disclosure provides immunogenic compositions, such as vaccines, including DNA vaccines, and uses thereof, e.g., which include an annexin core domain to mediate efficient antigen delivery and antigen presentation in order to induce an antigen-specific immune response and/or to treat or prevent infectious diseases and/or cancer.
Claims2
A method for treating or preventing an infectious disease or cancer in a subject, comprising:
- administering, to said subject, a pharmaceutical composition comprising an effective amount of a fusion protein, and a carrier, wherein the fusion protein comprises
- (i) at least one annexin core domain, wherein the annexin core domain consists of a sequence selected from:
- (a) amino acids 41-344 of SEQ ID NO:
- 1,
- (b) amino acids 14-317 of SEQ ID NO:
- 2,
- (c) amino acids 13-316 of SEQ ID NO:
- 3,
- (d) amino acids 41-344 of SEQ ID NO:
- 6,
- (e) amino acids 12-315 of SEQ ID NO:
- 7, and
- (f) amino acids 14-317 of SEQ ID NO:
- 8,
- or wherein the annexin core domain consists of an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% identical to the sequence selected from (a) to (f), and
- (ii) at least one antigenic peptide that is presented by a major histocompatibility complex (MHC).
