Abstract
Adjuvants, as the essential component of vaccines, are crucial in enhancing the magnitude, breadth and durability of immune responses. Unfortunately, commonly used Alum adjuvants predominantly provoke humoral immune response, but fail to evoke cellular immune response, which is crucial for the prevention of various chronic infectious diseases and cancers. Thus, it is necessary to develop effective adjuvants to simultaneously induce humoral and cellular immune response. In this work, we obtained a water soluble polysaccharide isolated and purified from Poria cocos, named as PCP, and explored the possibility of PCP as a vaccine adjuvant. The PCP, with Mw of 20.112 kDa, primarily consisted of →6)-α-D-Galp-(1→, with a small amount of →3)-β-D-Glcp-(1 → and →4)-β-D-Glcp-(1→. Our results demonstrated that the PCP promoted the activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages in vitro. As the adjuvant to ovalbumin, the PCP facilitated the activation of DCs in lymph nodes, and evoked strong antibody response with a combination of Th1 and Th2 immune responses. Moreover, compared to Alum adjuvant, the PCP markedly induced a potent cellular response, especially the cytotoxic T lymphocytes response. Therefore, we confirmed that the PCP has great potential to be an available adjuvant for simultaneously inducing humoral and cellular immune responses.

Abstract
Chitosan with pH sensitivity and biocompatibility was selected to prepare chitosan nanoparticle-stabilized Pickering emulsion (CSPE). The flexibility of CSPE enables stress deformation when in contact with cell membranes, thereby mimicking the deformability of natural pathogens and facilitating their efficient uptake by cells. In the acidic environment of lysosomes, the amino groups of chitosan molecules are protonated, and the water solubility increases. CSPE transforms from particle-stabilized to polymer chain-stabilized, its subsequent swelling and proton accumulation lead to lysosome rupture. The experimental results evaluating CSPE as an adjuvant shows that CSPE could efficiently load antigens, promote endocytosis and antigen cross-presentation, recruit antigen-presenting cells at the injection site, boost T-cell activation, and enhance both humoral and cellular immune responses. In the prophylactic and therapeutic tumor models of E.G7-OVA lymphoma and B16-MUC1 melanoma, CSPE significantly inhibited tumor growth and prolonged the survival of mice. In summary, antigenic lysosomal escape resulted from the chitosan molecular state transition is the key to the enhancement of cellular immunity by CSPE, and CSPE is a promising vaccine adjuvant.

Abstract
Adjuvants can regulate the immune response triggered by vaccines. Traditional aluminum adjuvants can induce humoral immunity, but they lack the ability to effectively induce Th1 cellular immunity, which is not conducive to the development of vaccines with improved protective effects. Aluminum adjuvants from different sources may have different physicochemical properties, and therefore, completely different immune responses can be triggered. This suggests that adjuvant recognition by the immune system and its responses are closely associated with the physicochemical properties of the adjuvant itself. To test this hypothesis, in this study, we developed a new method for preparing an aluminum adjuvant. This aluminum adjuvant has a pseudoboehmite structure, strong protein adsorption capacity, and excellent suspension stability. The adjuvant was tested using the hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) as a model antigen for immunization; the results showed that this aluminum adjuvant effectively induced not only humoral immunity but also an outstanding cellular immune response. These results provide a reference for improving the efficacy of adjuvants.

Self-assembled flagella protein nanofibers induce enhanced mucosal immunity. Biomaterials 2022; 288:121733.

Abstract
Nanofibers are potential vaccines or adjuvants for vaccination at the mucosal interface. However, how their lengths affect the mucosal immunity is not well understood. Using length-tunable flagella (self-assembled from a protein termed flagellin) as model protein nanofibers, we studied the mechanisms of their interaction with mucosal interface to induce immune responses length-dependently. Briefly, through tuning flagellin assembly, length-controlled protein nanofibers were prepared. The shorter nanofibers exhibited more pronounced toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) and inflammasomes activation accompanied by pyroptosis, as a result of cellular uptake, lysosomal damage, and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation. Accordingly, the shorter nanofibers elevated the IgA level in mucosal secretions and enhanced the serum IgG level in ovalbumin-based intranasal vaccinations. These mucosal and systematic antibody responses were correlated with the mucus penetration capacity of the nanofibers. Intranasal administration of vaccines (human papillomavirus type 16 peptides) adjuvanted with shorter nanofibers significantly elicited cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses, strongly inhibiting tumor growth and improving survival rates in a TC-1 cervical cancer model. This work suggests that length-dependent immune responses of nanofibers can be elucidated for designing nanofibrous vaccines and adjuvants for both infectious diseases and cancer.

Abstract
Protein-based subunit vaccine against tuberculosis (TB) is regarded as safer but with lower immunogenicity. To investigate effective adjuvant to improve the immunogenicity of TB subunit vaccine, we modified ploy(I:C) onto PLGA-PEG copolymer nanoparticle with polydopamine to produce a new nanoparticle adjuvant named "PLGA-PEG-poly(I:C)" (NP). M. tuberculosis fusion proteins Mtb10.4-HspX and ESAT-6-Rv2626c (M4) were encapsulated in the nanoparticles to produce the NP/M4 subunit vaccine. The PLGA-PEG/M4 nanoparticle was 200.21 ± 1.07 nm in diameter, and the polydispersity index (PDI) was 0.127 ± 0.02. Following modification with poly(I:C) by polydopamine, the NP/M4 was administered to C57BL/6 female mice intranasally and the immune responses were evaluated. The NP/M4 significantly induced antigen-specific CD4+ T cells proliferation, IL-2 and IFN-γ production. In addition, the NP/M4 could promote the production of antigen-specific IgG, IgG1, IgG2c in serum, and sIgA in lung washings. Overall, our results indicated that the NP would be a potential TB subunit vaccine adjuvant with the ability to induce strong Th1-type cell-mediated immunity and humoral immune responses.

TRAF6-IRF5 kinetics, TRIF, and biophysical factors drive synergistic innate responses to particle-mediated MPLA-CpG co-presentation. SCIENCE ADVANCES 2021; 7:eabd4235.

Abstract
Innate immune responses to pathogens are driven by co-presentation of multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Combinations of PAMPs can trigger synergistic immune responses, but the underlying molecular mechanisms of synergy are poorly understood. Here, we used synthetic particulate carriers co-loaded with monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) and CpG as pathogen-like particles (PLPs) to dissect the signaling pathways responsible for dual adjuvant immune responses. PLP-based co-delivery of MPLA and CpG to GM-CSF-driven mouse bone marrow-derived antigen-presenting cells (BM-APCs) elicited synergistic interferon-β (IFN-β) and interleukin-12p70 (IL-12p70) responses, which were strongly influenced by the biophysical properties of PLPs. Mechanistically, we found that MyD88 and interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) were necessary for IFN-β and IL-12p70 production, while TRIF signaling was required for the synergistic response. Both the kinetics and magnitude of downstream TRAF6 and IRF5 signaling drove the synergy. These results identify the key mechanisms of synergistic Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-TLR9 co-signaling in mouse BM-APCs and underscore the critical role of signaling kinetics and biophysical properties on the integrated response to combination adjuvants.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has attracted tremendous attention due to the remarkable clinical successes for treating a broad spectrum of tumors. One challenge for cancer immunotherapy is the inability to control localization and sustain concentrations of therapeutics at tumor sites. Local drug delivery systems (LDDSs) like the biomaterial scaffold-based drug delivery systems have emerged as a promising approach for delivering immunotherapeutic agents facilely and intensively in situ with reduced systemic toxicity. In this review, recent advances in biomaterial scaffold-based LDDSs for the administration of immunotherapeutic agents including vaccines, immunomodulators, and immune cells are summarized. Moreover, co-delivery systems are also evaluated for local immunotherapy-involving combination anti-tumor therapy, including chemotherapy-immunotherapy, photothermal-immunotherapy, and other combination therapies. Finally, the current challenges and future perspectives on the development of next-generation LDDSs for cancer immunotherapy are discussed.

Abstract
To study the effect of laser biomimetic treatment on different material compositions, five kinds of steels with different carbon element contents were studied by laser remelting. The characteristics (depth, width), microstructure, hardness, tensile properties, and wear resistance of the samples were compared. The results show that when the laser processing parameters are fixed, the characteristics of the unit increase with an increase of carbon element content. Moreover, the hardness of the unit also increases. Compared with the untreated samples, when the carbon content is 0.15–0.45%, the tensile strength of the laser biomimetic samples is higher than that of the untreated samples. For the biomimetic samples with different carbon content, with an increase of carbon content, the tensile strength increases first and then decreases, while the plasticity of the biomimetic samples decreases continuously. The bionic samples have better wear resistance than that of the untreated samples. For bionic specimens with different carbon elements, wear resistance increases with an increase of carbon element content.
