Cistanche deserticola polysaccharide- functionalized dendritic fibrous nano-silica -based adjuvant for H 9N 2 oral vaccine enhance systemic and mucosal immunity in chickens. Int J Pharm 2024; 660:124318. [PMID: 38852750 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
Avian influenza virus subtype H9N2 has the ability to infect birds and humans, further causing significant losses to the poultry industry and even posing a great threat to human health. Oral vaccine received particular interest for preventing majority infection due to its ability to elicit both mucosal and systemic immune responses, but their development is limited by the bad gastrointestinal (GI) environment, compact epithelium and mucus barrier, and the lack of effective mucosal adjuvants. Herein, we developed the dendritic fibrous nano-silica (DFNS) grafted with Cistanche deserticola polysaccharide (CDP) nanoparticles (CDP-DFNS) as an adjuvant for H9N2 vaccine. Encouragingly, CDP-DFNS facilitated the proliferation of T and B cells, and further induced the activation of T lymphocytes in vitro. Moreover, CDP-DFNS/H9N2 significantly promoted the antigen-specific antibodies levels in serum and intestinal mucosal of chickens, indicating the good ability to elicit both systemic and mucosal immunity. Additional, CDP-DFNS facilitate the activation of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells both in spleen and intestinal mucosal, and the indexes of immune organs. This study suggested that CDP-DFNS may be a new avenue for development of oral vaccine against pathogens that are transmitted via mucosal route.

Abstract
Biodegradable and biocompatible biomaterials have several important applications in drug delivery. The biomaterial family known as poly(ester amide)s (PEAs) has garnered considerable interest because it exhibits the benefits of both polyester and polyamide, as well as production from readily available raw ingredients and sophisticated synthesis techniques. Specifically, α-amino acid-based PEAs (AA-PEAs) are promising carriers because of their structural flexibility, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Herein, we summarize the latest applications of PEAs in drug delivery systems, including antitumor, gene therapy, and protein drugs, and discuss the prospects of drug delivery based on PEAs, which provides a reference for designing safe and efficient drug delivery carriers.

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
Graphene, a two-dimensional material consisting of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, has shown great potential in various fields, including biomedicine. When it comes to vaccine development, graphene can offer several advantages due to its unique properties. Potential applications of graphene in vaccine development include improved vaccine delivery, adjuvant properties, improved vaccine stability, improved immune response, and biosensing capabilities. Although graphene offers many potential benefits in vaccine development, there are also some drawbacks and challenges associated with its use. Although graphene shows promising potential for vaccine development, overcoming the challenges and limitations associated with its use is critical to realizing its full potential in the field of immunization. Further research and development efforts are needed to overcome these drawbacks and take advantage of graphene for improved vaccine formulations.

Abstract
Low immunogenicity of tumors poses a challenge in the development of effective tumor immunotherapy. However, emerging evidence suggests that certain therapeutic approaches, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and phototherapy, can induce varying degrees of immunogenic cell death (ICD). This ICD phenomenon leads to the release of tumor antigens and the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs), thereby enhancing tumor immunogenicity and promoting immune responses. However, the use of a single conventional ICD inducer often fails to achieve in situ tumor ablation and establish long-term anti-tumor immune responses. Furthermore, the induction of ICD induction varies among different approaches, and the distribution of the therapeutic agent within the body influences the level of ICD and the occurrence of toxic side effects. To address these challenges and further boost tumor immunity, researchers have explored nanosystems as inducers of ICD in combination with tumor immunotherapy. This review examines the mechanisms of ICD and different induction methods, with a specific focus on the relationship between ICD and tumor immunity. The aim is to explore the research advancements utilizing various nanomaterials to enhance the body's anti-tumor effects by inducing ICD. This paper aims to contribute to the development and clinical application of nanomaterial-based ICD inducers in the field of cancer immunotherapy by providing important theoretical guidance and practical references.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The dramatic effects caused by viral diseases have prompted the search for effective therapeutic and preventive agents. In this context, 2D graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have shown great potential for antiviral therapy, enabling the functionalization and/or decoration with biomolecules, metals and polymers, able to improve their interaction with viral nanoparticles. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the most recent advances of the antiviral research related to 2D GBNs, based on their antiviral mechanism of action. Their ability to inactivate viruses by inhibiting the entry inside cells, or through drug/gene delivery, or by stimulating the host immune response are here discussed. As reported, biological studies performed in vitro and/or in vivo allowed to demonstrate the antiviral activity of the developed GBNs, at different stages of the virus life cycle and the evaluation of their long-term toxicity. Other mechanisms closely related to the physicochemical properties of GBNs are also reported, demonstrating the potential of these materials for antiviral prophylaxis. EXPERT OPINION GBNs represent valuable tools to fight emerging or reemerging viral infections. However, their translation into the clinic requires standardized scale-up procedures leading to the reliable and reproducible synthesis of these nanomaterials with suitable physicochemical properties, as well as more in-depth pharmacological and toxicological investigations. We believe that multidisciplinary approaches will give valuable solutions to overcome the encountered limitations in the application of GBNs in biomedical and clinical field.

Abstract
Conventional Au nanomaterial synthesis typically necessitates the involvement of extensive surfactants and reducing agents, leading to a certain amount of chemical waste and biological toxicity. In this study, we innovatively employed ultra-small graphene oxide as a reducing agent and surfactant for the in situ generation of small Au nanoparticles under ultraviolet irradiation (UV) at ambient conditions. After ultra-small GO-Au seeds were successfully synthesized, we fabricated small star-like Au nanoparticles on the surface of GO, in which GO effectively prevented Austar from aggregation. To further use GO-Austar for cancer PTT therapy, through the modification of reduced human serum albumin-folic acid conjugate (rHSA-FA) and loading IR780, the final probe GO-Austar@rHSA-FA@IR780 was prepared. The prepared probe showed excellent biocompatibility and superb phototoxicity towards MGC-803 cells in vitro. In vivo, the final probe dramatically increased tumor temperature up to 58.6 °C after 5 minutes of irradiation by an 808 nm laser, significantly inhibiting tumor growth and nearly eradicating subcutaneous tumors in mice. This research provides a novel and simple method for the synthesis of GO-Au nanocomposites, showcasing significant potential in biological applications.

Abstract
Antiviral vaccine is essential for preventing and controlling virus spreading, along with declining morbidity and mortality. A major challenge in effective vaccination lies in the ability to enhance both the humoral and cellular immune responses by adjuvants. Herein, self-assembled nanoparticles based on graphene oxide quantum dots with components of carnosine, resiquimod and Zn2+ ions, namely ZnGC-R, are designed as a new adjuvant for influenza vaccine. With its high capability for antigen-loading, ZnGC-R enhances antigen utilization, improves DC recruitment, and activates antigen-presenting cells. Single cell analysis of lymphocytes after intramuscular vaccination revealed that ZnGC-R generated multifaceted immune responses. ZnGC-R stimulated robust CD4+CCR7loPD-1hi Tfh and durable CD8+CD44hiCD62L- TEM immune responses, and simultaneously promoted the proliferation of CD26+ germinal center B cells. Besides, ZnGC-R elicited 2.53-fold higher hemagglutination-inhibiting antibody than commercial-licensed aluminum salt adjuvant. ZnGC-R based vaccine induced 342% stronger IgG antibody responses compared with vaccines with inactivated virus alone, leading to 100% in vivo protection efficacy against the H1N1 influenza virus challenge.

Abstract
Hydrogel has been proven to have the ability to deliver antigens continuously to achieve slow vaccine delivery, which makes it a promising candidate for an adjuvant delivery platform. Meanwhile, graphene oxide (GO) has garnered significant attention due to its good biosafety, excellent surface area and easy modification. However, GO exists as weak colloidal particles and poses challenges in self-assembling into a hydrogel structure. Here, we propose an innovative strategy involving self-assembling lentinan-functionalized graphene oxide hydrogel ((LNT-GO Gel) by simply mixing lentinan (LNT)-functionalized GO with polyethylene imide (PEI), which can simultaneously encapsulate antigens, achieve long-lasting release of antigens and generate excellent adjuvant activity. The results indicated that the LNT-GO Gel can control the release of OVA at the injection site and confer targeted delivering capacity to lymph nodes. And the date demonstrates that LNT-GO Gel displays favorable safety and biodegradability in vivo. Moreover, LNT-GO Gel can enhance the activation and maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) in lymph node, induce stronger OVA-specific antibody response, and promote spleen T lymphocyte differentiation, which underscores that LNT-GO Gel has ability to generate stronger antigen-specific humoral and cellular immune responses. Collectively, these results demonstrate the adjuvant potential of the lentinan-functionalized graphene oxide hydrogel (LNT-GO Gel) for subunit vaccine.

Abstract
To improve antigen immunogenicity and promote long-lasting immunity, vaccine formulations have been appropriately supplemented with adjuvants. Graphene has been found to enhance the presentation of antigens to CD8+ T cells, as well as stimulating innate immune responses and inflammatory factors. Its properties, such as large surface area, water stability, and high aspect ratio, make it a suitable candidate for delivering biological substances. Graphene-based nanomaterials have recently attracted significant attention as a new type of vaccine adjuvants due to their potential role in the activation of immune responses. Due to the limited functionality of some approved human adjuvants for use, the development of new all-purpose adjuvants is urgently required. Research on the immunological and biomedical use of graphene oxide (GO) indicates that these nanocarriers possess excellent physicochemical properties, acceptable biocompatibility, and a high capacity for drug loading. Graphene-based nanocarriers also could improve the function of some immune cells such as dendritic cells and macrophages through specific signaling pathways. However, GO injection can lead to significant oxidative stress and inflammation. Various surface functionalization protocols have been employed to reduce possible adverse effects of GO, such as aggregation of GO in biological liquids and induce cell death. Furthermore, these modifications enhance the properties of functionalized-GO's qualities, making it an excellent carrier and adjuvant. Shedding light on different physicochemical and structural properties of GO and its derivatives has led to their application in various therapeutic and drug delivery fields. In this review, we have endeavored to elaborate on different aspects of GO.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine hold promise for improving or even restoring the function of damaged organs. Graphene-based materials (GBMs) have become a key player in biomaterials applied to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. A series of cellular and molecular events, which affect the outcome of tissue regeneration, occur after GBMs are implanted into the body. The immunomodulatory function of GBMs is considered to be a key factor influencing tissue regeneration. This review introduces the applications of GBMs in bone, neural, skin, and cardiovascular tissue engineering, emphasizing that the immunomodulatory functions of GBMs significantly improve tissue regeneration. This review focuses on summarizing and discussing the mechanisms by which GBMs mediate the sequential regulation of the innate immune cell inflammatory response. During the process of tissue healing, multiple immune responses, such as the inflammatory response, foreign body reaction, tissue fibrosis, and biodegradation of GBMs, are interrelated and influential. We discuss the regulation of these immune responses by GBMs, as well as the immune cells and related immunomodulatory mechanisms involved. Finally, we summarize the limitations in the immunomodulatory strategies of GBMs and ideas for optimizing GBM applications in tissue engineering. This review demonstrates the significance and related mechanism of the immunomodulatory function of GBM application in tissue engineering; more importantly, it contributes insights into the design of GBMs to enhance wound healing and tissue regeneration in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Background Traditional emulsion adjuvants are limited in clinical application because of their surfactant dependence. Graphene oxide (GO) has unique amphiphilic properties and therefore has potential to be used as a surfactant substitute to stabilize Pickering emulsions. Methods In this study, GO-stabilized Pickering emulsion (GPE) was prepared and used as an adjuvant to facilitate an enhanced immune response to the Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) Pgp3 recombinant vaccine. Firstly, GPE was prepared by optimizing the sonication conditions, pH, salinity, GO concentration, and water/oil ratio. GPE with small-size droplets was characterized and chosen as the candidate. Subsequently, controlled-release antigen delivery by GPE was explored. Cellular uptake behaviors, M1 polarization, and cytokine stimulation by GPE + Pgp3 was considered in terms of the production of macrophages. Finally, GPE's adjuvant effect was evaluated by vaccination with Pgp3 recombinant in BALB/c mouse models. Results GPE with the smallest droplet sizes was prepared by sonication under 163 W for 2 min at 1 mg/mL GO in natural salinity with a pH of 2 when the water/oil ratio was 10:1 (w/w). The optimized average GPE droplet size was 1.8 μm and the zeta potential was -25.0 ± 1.3 mv. GPE delivered antigens by adsorption onto the droplet surface, demonstrating the controlled release of antigens both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, GPE promoted antigen uptake, which stimulated proinflammatory tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), enhancing the M1 polarization of macrophages in vitro. Macrophage recruitment was also significantly promoted by GPE at the injection site. In the GPE + Pgp3 treatment group, higher levels of immunoglobin (IgG), immunoglobin G1 (IgG1), immunoglobin G2a (IgG2a) sera, and immunoglobin A (IgA) were detected in vaginal fluid, and higher levels of IFN-γ and IL-2 secretion were stimulated, than in the Pgp3 group, showing a significant type 1 T helper (Th1)-type cellular immune response. Chlamydia muridarum challenging showed that GPE enhanced Pgp3's immunoprotection through its advanced clearance of bacterial burden and alleviation of chronic pathological damage in the genital tract. Conclusion This study enabled the rational design of small-size GPE, shedding light on antigen adsorption and control release, macrophage uptake, polarization and recruitment, which enhanced augmented humoral and cellular immunity and ameliorated chlamydial-induced tissue damage in the genital tract.

Abstract
Chinese yam polysaccharides (CYPs) have received wide attention for their immunomodulatory activity. Our previous studies had discovered that the Chinese yam polysaccharide PLGA-stabilized Pickering emulsion (CYP-PPAS) can serve as an efficient adjuvant to trigger powerful humoral and cellular immunity. Recently, positively charged nano-adjuvants are easily taken up by antigen-presenting cells, potentially resulting in lysosomal escape, the promotion of antigen cross-presentation, and the induction of CD8 T-cell response. However, reports on the practical application of cationic Pickering emulsions as adjuvants are very limited. Considering the economic damage and public-health risks caused by the H9N2 influenza virus, it is urgent to develop an effective adjuvant for boosting humoral and cellular immunity against influenza virus infection. Here, we applied polyethyleneimine-modified Chinese yam polysaccharide PLGA nanoparticles as particle stabilizers and squalene as the oil core to fabricate a positively charged nanoparticle-stabilized Pickering emulsion adjuvant system (PEI-CYP-PPAS). The cationic Pickering emulsion of PEI-CYP-PPAS was utilized as an adjuvant for the H9N2 Avian influenza vaccine, and the adjuvant activity was compared with the Pickering emulsion of CYP-PPAS and the commercial adjuvant (aluminum adjuvant). The PEI-CYP-PPAS, with a size of about 1164.66 nm and a ζ potential of 33.23 mV, could increase the H9N2 antigen loading efficiency by 83.99%. After vaccination with Pickering emulsions based on H9N2 vaccines, PEI-CYP-PPAS generated higher HI titers and stronger IgG antibodies than CYP-PPAS and Alum and increased the immune organ index of the spleen and bursa of Fabricius without immune organ injury. Moreover, treatment with PEI-CYP-PPAS/H9N2 induced CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell activation, a high lymphocyte proliferation index, and increased cytokine expression of IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ. Thus, compared with the CYP-PPAS and aluminum adjuvant, the cationic nanoparticle-stabilized vaccine delivery system of PEI-CYP-PPAS was an effective adjuvant for H9N2 vaccination to elicit powerful humoral and cellular immune responses.

Abstract
An important aspect of immunotherapy is the ability of dendritic cells (DCs) to prime T cell immunity, an approach that has yielded promising results in some early phase clinical trials. However, novel approaches are required to improve DC therapeutic efficacy by enhancing their uptake of, and activation by, disease relevant antigens. The carbon nano-material graphene oxide (GO) may provide a unique way to deliver antigen to innate immune cells and modify their ability to initiate effective adaptive immune responses. We have assessed whether GO of various lateral sizes affects DC activation and function in vitro and in vivo, including their ability to take up, process and present the well-defined model antigen ovalbumin (OVA). We have found that GO flakes are internalised by DCs, while having minimal effect on their viability, activation phenotype or cytokine production. Although adsorption of OVA protein to either small or large GO flakes promoted its uptake into DCs, large GO interfered with OVA processing. In terms of modulation of DC function, delivery of OVA via small GO flakes significantly enhanced DC ability to induce proliferation of OVA-specific CD4+ T cells, promoting granzyme B secretion in vitro. On the other hand, delivery of OVA via large GO flakes augmented DC ability to induce proliferation of OVA-specific CD8+ T cells, and their production of IFN-γ and granzyme B. Together, these data demonstrate the capacity of GO of different lateral dimensions to act as a promising delivery platform for DC modulation of distinct facets of the adaptive immune response, information that could be exploited for future development of targeted immunotherapies.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion has great potential as a vaccine adjuvant due to its unique advantages such as its high antigen loading efficiency, great stability, etc. Among several adjuvants on the market, aluminum adjuvant (Alum) is the most widely used at present. However, problems such as the inability to effectively induce cellular immunity and the poor effect on subunit vaccines limit the application of Alum. As an immunopotentiator, Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) have been proven to have the ability to regulate humoral and cellular immunity. To overcome the insufficiency of Alum, we explored a new adjuvant delivery system. The Lycium barbarum polysaccharides-loaded Particulate Alum via Pickering emulsion (LBPPE) was prepared by loading Alum on the squalene/water interphase following LBP was adsorbed on the Alum surface (Fig. 10). Similar to squalene, LBPPE possesses a good biosafety profile. LBPPE was spherical with uneven surface, which increased the possibility of efficient antigen adsorption on the surface and crack of LBPPE. And the result shown that the LBPPE had high antigen loading rate at approximately 90 %. In vivo experiments, LBPPE showed an excellent ability to recruit antigen-presenting cells (APCs) at the injection sites, activate dendritic cells in the lymph nodes. Then, in the evaluation of humoral immunity, LBPPE was able to effectively induce the production of IgG, IgG1, and IgG2a. Moreover, LBPPE significantly enhanced the expression and activation of T lymphocytes, and induced a strong immune memory T cells response. All the results above suggested that LBPPE is likely to provide promising insights toward a safe and efficient adjuvant platform for vaccines.

Understanding the Role of the Lateral Dimensional Property of Graphene Oxide on Its Interactions with Renal Cells. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27227956.

Abstract
Renal excretion is expected to be the major route for the elimination of biomedically applied nanoparticles from the body. Hence, understanding the nanomedicine-kidney interaction is crucially required, but it is still far from being understood. Herein, we explored the lateral dimension- (~70 nm and ~300 nm), dose- (1, 5, and 15 mg/kg in vivo and 0.1~250 μg/mL in vitro), and time-dependent (48 h and 7 d in vivo) deposition and injury of PEGylated graphene oxide sheets (GOs) in the kidney after i.v. injection in mice. We specially investigated the cytotoxic effects on three typical kidney cell types with which GO renal excretion is related: human renal glomerular endothelial cells (HRGECs) and human podocytes, and human proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2). By using in vivo fluorescence imaging and in situ Raman imaging and spectroscopic analysis, we revealed that GOs could gradually be eliminated from the kidneys, where the glomeruli and renal tubules are their target deposition sites, but only the high dose of GO injection induced obvious renal histological and ultrastructural changes. We showed that the high-dose GO-induced cytotoxicity included a cell viability decrease and cellular apoptosis increase. GO uptake by renal cells triggered cellular membrane damage (intracellular LDH release) and increased levels of oxidative stress (ROS level elevation and a decrease in the balance of the GSH/GSSG ratio) accompanied by a mitochondrial membrane potential decrease and up-regulation of the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-18, resulting in cellular apoptosis. GO treatments activated Keap1/Nrf2 signaling; however, the antioxidant function of Nrf2 could be inhibited by apoptotic engagement. GO-induced cytotoxicity was demonstrated to be associated with oxidative stress and an inflammation reaction. Generally, the l-GOs presented more pronounced cytotoxicity and more severe cellular injury than s-GOs did, demonstrating lateral size-dependent toxicity to the renal cells. More importantly, GO-induced cytotoxicity was independent of renal cell type. The results suggest that the dosage of GOs in biomedical applications should be considered and that more attention should be paid to the ability of a high dose of GO to cause renal deposition and potential nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapies such as tumor vaccines, chimeric antigen receptor T cells and immune checkpoint blockades, have attracted tremendous attention. Among them, tumor vaccines prime immune response by delivering antigens and adjuvants to the antigen presenting cells (APCs), thus enhancing antitumor immunotherapy. Despite tumor vaccines have made considerable achievements in tumor immunotherapy, it remains challenging to efficiently deliver tumor vaccines to activate the dendritic cells (DCs) in lymph nodes (LNs). Rational design of nanovaccines on the basis of biomedical nanotechnology has emerged as one of the most promising strategies for boosting the outcomes of cancer immunotherapy. In recent years, great efforts have been made in exploiting various nanocarrier-based LNs-targeting tumor nanovaccines. In view of the rapid advances in this field, we here aim to summarize the latest progression in LNs-targeting nanovaccines for cancer immunotherapy, with special attention to various nano-vehicles developed for LNs-targeting delivery of tumor vaccines, including lipid-based nanoparticles, polymeric nanocarriers, inorganic nanocarriers and biomimetic nanosystems. Moreover, the recent trends in nanovaccines-based combination cancer immunotherapy are provided. Finally, the rationality, advantages and challenges of LNs-targeting nanovaccines for clinical translation and application are spotlighted.

Abstract
Vaccines have been one of the most powerful weapons to defend against infectious diseases for a long time now. Subunit vaccines are of increasing importance because of their safety and effectiveness. In this work, a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens spore@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) vaccine platform is constructed. The ovalbumin (OVA) is encapsulated in the ZIF-8 shells as a model antigen to form a spore@OVA@ZIF-8 (SOZ) composite. The assembly of ZIF-8 improves the loading content of OVA on the spores and provides OVA with long-term protection. The SOZ composite enhances the immunization efficacy in multiple ways, such as facilitation of antigen uptake and lysosome escape, stimulation of dendritic cells to mature and secrete cytokines, boosting of antibody production and formation of an antigen depot. This platform shows several advantages including easy preparation, cost-effectiveness, long life, convenience of transportation and storage, and no need for the cold chain. These findings may have promising implications for the rational design of safe and effective spore-based composite vaccine platforms.

Abstract
Virus-like particles (VLPs), a kind of superior subunit vaccine, are assembled from the viral structural proteins with similar capsids to viruses. However, the efficiency of cell uptake is not satisfactory. We prepared flower-like mesoporous silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) with large pore channels and interior cavities to solve the problem. The highly loaded VLPs-SiNPs composites not only enhanced the stability of VLPs, but also delivered antigen to cells and improved the cellular uptake efficiency. Compared with naked VLPs, mice intramuscularly immunized with the VLPs-SiNPs composite induced higher specific antibodies, greater lymphocyte activation and higher level of cytokine secretion. Moreover, the VLPs-SiNPs composite as vaccine also promoted mucosal immune response through intranasal immune pathway. Therefore, the VLPs-SiNPs enable to induce strong cellular, humoral, and slight mucosal immune response through different immunization routes. These results are potentially useful for vaccine formulations and may provide further reference for vaccine design and delivery systems.

Abstract
The boosting exploitation of graphene oxide (GO) increases exposure risk to human beings. However, as primary defender in the first immune line, neutrophils' mechanism of defensive behavior toward GO remains unclear. Herein, we discovered that neutrophils recognize and defensively degrade GO in a lateral dimension dependent manner. The micrometer-sized GO (mGO) induces NETosis by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), while nanometer-sized GO (nGO) elicits neutrophil degranulation. The two neutrophils' defensive behaviors are accompanied with generation of reactive oxygen species and activation of p-ERK and p-Akt kinases. However, mGO-induced NETosis is NADPH oxidase (NOX)-independent while nGO-triggered degranulation is NOX-dependent. Furthermore, myeloperoxidase (MPO) is determinant mediator despite distinct neutrophil phenotypes. Neutrophils release NETs comprising of MPO upon activated with mGO, while MPO is secreted via nGO-induced degranulation. Moreover, the binding energy between MPO and GO is calculated to be 69.8728 kJ mol-1 , indicating that electrostatic interactions mainly cause the spontaneous binding process. Meanwhile, the central enzymatic biodegradation occurs at oxygenic active sites and defects on GO. Mass spectrometry analysis deciphers the degradation products are biocompatible molecules like flavonoids and polyphenols. This study provides fundamental evidence and practical guidance for nanotechnology based on GO, including vaccine adjuvant, implantable devices, and energy storage.

Abstract
Reoccurring seasonal flu epidemics and occasional pandemics are among the most severe threats to public health. Current seasonal influenza vaccines provide limited protection against drifted circulating strains and no protection against influenza pandemics. Next-generation influenza vaccines, designated as universal influenza vaccines, should be safe, affordable, and elicit long-lasting cross-protective influenza immunity. Nanotechnology plays a critical role in the development of such novel vaccines. Engineered nanoparticles can incorporate multiple advantageous properties into the same nanoparticulate platforms to improve vaccine potency and breadth. These immunological properties include virus-like biomimicry, high antigen-load, controlled antigen release, targeted delivery, and induction of innate signaling pathways. Many nanoparticle influenza vaccines have shown promising results in generating potent and broadly protective immune responses. This review will summarize the necessity and characteristics of next-generation influenza vaccines and the immunological correlates of broad influenza immunity and focus on how cutting-edge nanoparticle technology contributes to such vaccine development. The review will give new insights into the rational design of nanoparticle universal vaccines to combat influenza epidemics and pandemics.

Abstract
A favorable outcome of the COVID-19 crisis might be achieved with massive vaccination. The proposed vaccines contain several different vaccine active principles (VAP), such as inactivated virus, antigen, mRNA, and DNA, which are associated with either standard adjuvants or nanomaterials (NM) such as liposomes in Moderna's and BioNTech/Pfizer's vaccines. COVID-19 vaccine adjuvants may be chosen among liposomes or other types of NM composed for example of graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, micelles, exosomes, membrane vesicles, polymers, or metallic NM, taking inspiration from cancer nano-vaccines, whose adjuvants may share some of their properties with those of viral vaccines. The mechanisms of action of nano-adjuvants are based on the facilitation by NM of targeting certain regions of immune interest such as the mucus, lymph nodes, and zones of infection or blood irrigation, the possible modulation of the type of attachment of the VAP to NM, in particular VAP positioning on the NM external surface to favor VAP presentation to antigen presenting cells (APC) or VAP encapsulation within NM to prevent VAP degradation, and the possibility to adjust the nature of the immune response by tuning the physico-chemical properties of NM such as their size, surface charge, or composition. The use of NM as adjuvants or the presence of nano-dimensions in COVID-19 vaccines does not only have the potential to improve the vaccine benefit/risk ratio, but also to reduce the dose of vaccine necessary to reach full efficacy. It could therefore ease the overall spread of COVID-19 vaccines within a sufficiently large portion of the world population to exit the current crisis.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to prepare spiky titanium dioxide nanoparticles-loaded Plantaginis Semen polysaccharide (SN-TiO2-PSP), and the structural characterization and immune response of infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) vaccine in Hetian chickens were investigated. The structural characterization of SN-TiO2-PSP was analyzed by FT-IR, TEM, and TGA analysis. And the immune organs indexes, lymphocytes proliferation, specific antibody levels, and ratios of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes were studied. Structural characterization results showed that SN-TiO2-PSP has a typical polysaccharide absorption peak and good stability. The SN-TiO2-PSP's shape was similar to sea urchin, and its zeta potential and particle size were 27.56 mV and 976.11 nm, respectively. In vivo results showed that SN-TiO2-PSP could enhance the proliferation of peripheral lymphocytes, specific antibody levels, CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes ratios, IL-4 and INF-γ levels in Hetian chickens vaccinated with ILT vaccine on D7, D14, D21, and D28. In addition, SN-TiO2-PSP not only enhanced the indexes of immune organs but also promoted the development of immune organs. Therefore, SN-TiO2-PSP has immune adjuvant activity and may become a new potential immune adjuvant.

Abstract
Licorice is a medicinal and food plant widely used to treat diseases and produce food additives, because of its unique chemical constituents like polysaccharides, flavones, and saponins. Glycyrrhiza Polysaccharides (GPS-1) are water-soluble neutral polysaccharides extracted from licorice. Currently, GPS-1 is administrated to chickens by gavage every d for 14 d to observe the impact of GPS-1 on the Newcastle disease vaccine. To determine the immunity of these chickens to NDV, blood serum levels of hemagglutinin-inhibition (HI) antibody, and immunoglobulins IgA and IgG were measured. Meanwhile, the expression levels of cytokines IL-2, IL-4, IL-17, and IFN-γ were measured to evaluate the degree of immune booster activity. The chickens' spleen and peripheral blood lymphocytes displayed a significant increase in the proportion of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells after booster treatments with GPS-1. The results indicated that GPS-1 had a significant, dose-dependent, immune-boosting effect which could enhance NDV vaccine immunity in chickens.

Abstract
Cochlear implantation is considered to be the best therapeutic method for profound sensorineural hearing loss, but insufficient numbers of functional spiral ganglion neurons hinder the clinical effects of cochlear implantation. Stem cell transplantation has the potential to provide novel strategies for spiral ganglion neuron regeneration after injury. However, some obstacles still need to be overcome, such as low survival and uncontrolled differentiation. Several novel technologies show promise for modulating neural stem cell behaviors to address these issues. Here, a device capable of electrical stimulation was designed by combining a cochlear implant with a graphene substrate. Neural stem cells (NSCs) were cultured on the graphene substrate and subjected to electrical stimulation transduced from sound waves detected by the cochlear implant. Cell behaviors were studied, and this device showed good biocompatibility for NSCs. More importantly, electric-acoustic stimulation with higher frequencies and amplitudes induced NSC death and apoptosis, and electric-acoustic stimulation could promote NSCs to proliferate and differentiate into neurons only when low-frequency stimulation was supplied. The present study provides experimental evidence for understanding the regulatory role of electric-acoustic stimulation on NSCs and highlights the potentials of the above-mentioned device in stem cell therapy for hearing loss treatment.

Abstract
Nowadays, the main obstacle for further miniaturization and integration of nucleic acids point-of-care testing devices is the lack of low-cost and high-performance heating materials for supporting reliable nucleic acids amplification. Herein, reduced graphene oxide hybridized multi-walled carbon nanotubes nano-circuit integrated into an ingenious paper-based heater is developed, which is integrated into a paper-based analytical device (named HiPAD). The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still raging across the world. As a proof of concept, the HiPAD is utilized to visually detect the SARS-CoV-2 N gene using colored loop-mediated isothermal amplification reaction. This HiPAD costing a few dollars has comparable detection performance to traditional nucleic acids amplifier costing thousands of dollars. The detection range is from 25 to 2.5 × 1010 copies mL-1 in 45 min. The detection limit of 25 copies mL-1 is 40 times more sensitive than 1000 copies mL-1 in conventional real-time PCR instruments. The disposable paper-based chip could also avoid potential secondary transmission of COVID-19 by convenient incineration to guarantee biosafety. The HiPAD or easily expanded M-HiPAD (for multiplex detection) has great potential for pathogen diagnostics in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Intranasal (i.n.) immunization is a promising vaccination route for infectious respiratory diseases such as influenza. Recombinant protein vaccines can overcome the safety concerns and long production phase of virus-based influenza vaccines. However, soluble protein vaccines are poorly immunogenic if administered by an i.n. route. Here, we report that polyethyleneimine-functionalized graphene oxide nanoparticles (GP nanoparticles) showed high antigen-loading capacities and superior immunoenhancing properties. Via a facile electrostatic adsorption approach, influenza hemagglutinin (HA) was incorporated into GP nanoparticles and maintained structural integrity and antigenicity. The resulting GP nanoparticles enhanced antigen internalization and promoted inflammatory cytokine production and JAWS II dendritic cell maturation. Compared with soluble HA, GP nanoparticle formulations induced significantly enhanced and cross-reactive immune responses at both systemic sites and mucosal surfaces in mice after i.n. immunization. In the absence of any additional adjuvant, the GP nanoparticle significantly boosted antigen-specific humoral and cellular immune responses, comparable to the acknowledged potent mucosal immunomodulator CpG. The robust immune responses conferred immune protection against challenges by homologous and heterologous viruses. Additionally, the solid self-adjuvant effect of GP nanoparticles may mask the role of CpG when coincorporated. In the absence of currently approved mucosal adjuvants, GP nanoparticles can be developed into potent i.n. influenza vaccines, providing broad protection. With versatility and flexibility, the GP nanoplatform can be easily adapted for constructing mucosal vaccines for different respiratory pathogens.

Abstract
Nanoparticle vaccine delivery systems have been emerging strategies for inducing potent immune responses to prevent and treat infectious diseases and cancers. The properties of nanoparticle vaccine delivery systems, such as nanoparticle size, surface charge, and antigen release kinetics, have been extensively studied and proven to effectively influence the efficacy of vaccine responses. However, a few types of research have focused on the influence of administration routes of nanoparticle vaccines on immune responses. Herein, to investigate how the administration routes affect the immune responses of nanoparticles vaccines, we developed a nanoparticles system (NPs), in which the ovalbumin (OVA) and Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) were incorporated into poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles and the polyethylenimine (PEI) was coated on the surface of nanoparticles. The NPs vaccine was intramuscularly and subcutaneously injected (im and sc) into mice, and the immune responses induced by these two delivery routes were compared. The results showed that both im and sc administration of NPs vaccines elicited strong antigen-specific IgG, IgG1, and IgG2a antibody responses, with no significant difference. In contrast, NP vaccines with sc administration significantly enhanced immune responses, such as enhancing the recruitment and activation of dendritic cells (DCs) in lymph nodes (LNs), promoting the antigen transport into draining lymph nodes, increasing the secretion of cytokines, improving the ratio of CD4+T cells to CD8+ T cells, activating cytotoxic T lymphocyte response, and inducing a strong cellular immune response. These results may provide a new insight onto the development of vaccine delivery systems.

Abstract
Intrinsic immune behaviors of nanomaterials and immune systems promote research on their adjuvanticity and the design of next generation nanovaccine-based immunotherapies. Herein, we report a promising multifunctional nanoadjuvant by exploring the immune-potentiating effects of black phosphorus nanosheets (BPs) in vitro and in vivo. The facile coating of BPs with phenylalanine-lysine-phenylalanine (FKF) tripeptide-modified antigen epitopes (FKF-OVAp@BP) enables the generation of a minimalized nanovaccine by integrating high loading capacity, efficient drug delivery, comprehensive dendritic cell (DC) activation, and biocompatibility for cancer immunotherapy. Systemic immunization elicits potent antitumor cellular immunity and significantly augments checkpoint blockade (CPB) against melanoma in a mouse model. Furthermore, near-infrared (NIR) photothermal effects of BPs create an immune-favorable microenvironment for improved local immunization. This study offers new insight into the integration of immunoactivity and photothermal effects for enhanced cancer immunotherapy by using a nanoadjuvant and thus potentially advances the design and application of multifunctional adjuvant materials for cancer nanotreatment.

Abstract
Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine is a promising candidate in cancer immunotherapy as it can encode tumor-associated antigens with an excellent safety profile. Unfortunately, the inherent instability of RNA and translational efficiency are major limitations of RNA vaccine. Here, we report an injectable hydrogel formed with graphene oxide (GO) and polyethylenimine (PEI), which can generate mRNA (ovalbumin, a model antigen) and adjuvants (R848)-laden nanovaccines for at least 30 days after subcutaneous injection. The released nanovaccines can protect the mRNA from degradation and confer targeted delivering capacity to lymph nodes. The data show that this transformable hydrogel can significantly increase the number of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells and subsequently inhibit the tumor growth with only one treatment. Meanwhile, this hydrogel can generate an antigen specific antibody in the serum which in turn prevents the occurrence of metastasis. Collectively, these results demonstrate the potential of the PEI-functionalized GO transformable hydrogel for effective cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Inactivated H9N2 influenza vaccines required adjuvants to induce strong immune responses to protect poultry from the infections of H9N2 influenza viruses. Recently, positively charged nanoparticles-based adjuvant delivery systems have been extensively investigated as the novel vaccine adjuvant due to the protection antigens and drugs from degradation, promoting antigens and drugs uptake by antigen presenting cells (APCs), and inducing strong humoral and cellular immune responses. In this study, the immunostimulant Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) was encapsulated into Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) PLGA nanoparticles, and the Polyethylenimine (PEI) was coated on the nanoparticles to develop a novel adjuvant (ASP-PLGA-PEI). To further investigate the adjuvant activities of ASP-PLGA-PEI nanoparticles for H9N2 vaccines in chickens and compare the adjuvant activities of nanoparticles adjuvant and conventional adjuvants (Alum and oil-based adjuvant), the H9N2 antigen was incubated with three different adjuvants and then immunized with chickens to evaluate the ability of inducing humoral and cellular immune responses. The results revealed that compared to Alum adjuvant, ASP-PLGA-PEI nanoparticles adjuvant stimulated higher antibody responses, promoted the activation of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells, increased the expression of Th1 cytokines IFN-γ. Compared to oil-based adjuvant (ISA-206), ASP-PLGA-PEI nanoparticles adjuvant induced comparable antibody immune responses at later period after immunization, improved the activation of CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells. Therefore, compared to Alum and oil-based adjuvant, the ASP-PLGA-PEI nanoparticles serve as an efficient adjuvant for H9N2 vaccine and have the potential to induce vigorous humoral and cellular immune responses in chickens.

Abstract
Personalized cancer vaccines (PCVs) are reinvigorating vaccine strategies in cancer immunotherapy. In contrast to adoptive T-cell therapy and checkpoint blockade, the PCV strategy modulates the innate and adaptive immune systems with broader activation to redeploy antitumor immunity with individualized tumor-specific antigens (neoantigens). Following a sequential scheme of tumor biopsy, mutation analysis, and epitope prediction, the administration of neoantigens with synthetic long peptide (SLP) or mRNA formulations dramatically improves the population and activity of antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Despite the promising prospect of PCVs, there is still great potential for optimizing prevaccination procedures and vaccine potency. In particular, the arduous development of tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-based vaccines provides valuable experience and rational principles for augmenting vaccine potency which is expected to advance PCV through the design of adjuvants, delivery systems, and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) reversion since current personalized vaccination simply admixes antigens with adjuvants. Considering the broader application of TAA-based vaccine design, these two strategies complement each other and can lead to both personalized and universal therapeutic methods. Chemical strategies provide vast opportunities for (1) exploring novel adjuvants, including synthetic molecules and materials with optimizable activity, (2) constructing efficient and precise delivery systems to avoid systemic diffusion, improve biosafety, target secondary lymphoid organs, and enhance antigen presentation, and (3) combining bioengineering methods to innovate improvements in conventional vaccination, "smartly" re-educate the TME, and modulate antitumor immunity. As chemical strategies have proven versatility, reliability, and universality in the design of T cell- and B cell-based antitumor vaccines, the union of such numerous chemical methods in vaccine construction is expected to provide new vigor and vitality in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) and lentinan have received great attention because of their utility in biomedical applications. Graphene oxide is utilized in drug- and vaccine-delivery systems due to its biocompatibility, large surface area, and outstanding adsorption capability, while lentinan has immunity-enhancing effects. In this study, we synthesized and characterized GO grafted with lentinan (LNT) as an adjuvant and investigated how to impact the immune responses. Lentinan-modified GO (GO-LNT) facilitated antigen uptake in macrophages and improved the efficiency of antigen application in vitro. Furthermore, in vivo, compared with GO/OVA, GO-LNT/OVA decreased the release rate of ovalbumin (OVA) to sustain long-term immune responses and boost the levels of IgG and IgG subtypes. Hence, we can infer that the effects of GO-LNT were a result of the increased amounts of antigen uptake by cells. Overall, our studies demonstrated that GO-LNT could suffice for a safe and effective vaccine-delivery system as well as an excellent adjuvant that both elicits a long-term immune memory response and potentiates cellular and humoral immunity.

Abstract
Vaccine is one of the most effective strategies for preventing and controlling infectious diseases and some noninfectious diseases, especially cancers. Adjuvants and carriers have been appropriately added to the vaccine formulation to improve the immunogenicity of the antigen and induce long-lasting immunity. However, there is an urgent need to develop new all-purpose adjuvants because some adjuvants approved for human use have limited functionality. Graphene oxide (GO), widely employed for the delivery of biomolecules, excels in loading and delivering antigen and shows the potentiality of activating the immune system. However, GO aggregates in biological liquid and induces cell death, and it also exhibits poor biosolubility and biocompatibility. To address these limitations, various surface modification protocols have been employed to integrate aqueous compatible substances with GO to effectively improve its biocompatibility. More importantly, these modifications render functionalized-GO with superior properties as both carriers and adjuvants. Herein, the recent progress of physicochemical properties and surface modification strategies of GO for its application as both carriers and adjuvants is reviewed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Due to its unique physicochemical properties, graphene oxide is widely employed in medicine for purposes of photothermal treatment of cancer, drug delivery, antibacterial therapy, and medical imaging. Our work describes the surface modification of graphene oxide and for the first time summarizes that functionalized graphene oxide serves as a vaccine carrier and shows significant adjuvant activity in activating cellular and humoral immunity. In the future, it is expected to be introduced into vaccine research to improve the efficacy of vaccines.

Abstract
Explosive growth in nanotechnology has merged with vaccine development in the battle against diseases caused by bacterial or viral infections and malignant tumors. Due to physicochemical characteristics including size, viscosity, density and electrostatic properties, nanomaterials have been applied to various vaccination strategies. Nanovaccines, as they are called, have been the subject of many studies, including review papers from a material science point of view, although a mode of action based on a biological and immunological understanding has yet to emerge. In this review, we discuss nanovaccines in terms of CD8+ T cell responses, which are essential for antiviral and anticancer therapies. We focus mainly on the role and mechanism, with particular attention to the functional aspects, of nanovaccines in inducing cross-presentation, an unconventional type of antigen-presentation that activates CD8+ T cells upon administration of exogenous antigens, in dendritic cells followed by activation of antigen-specific CD8+ T cell responses. Two major intracellular mechanisms that nanovaccines harness for cross-presentation are described; one is endosomal swelling and rupture, and the other is membrane fusion. Both processes eventually allow exogenous vaccine antigens to be exported from phagosomes to the cytosol followed by loading on major histocompatibility complex class I, triggering clonal expansion of CD8+ T cells. Advancement of nanotechnology with an enhanced understanding of how nanovaccines work will contribute to the design of more effective and safer nanovaccines.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of Polyp-Au-GO nanocomposite on VSMC proliferation, cell cycle proteins, down-regulation of mRNA in the rat was tested. Briefly, Polyp-Au-GO composite material was synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Polyp-Au-GO composite exhibited the absorbance peak at 530 nm. XRD analysis confirmed the crystalline particle with size ranging between 16.5 and 32.6 nm. The crystallinity differences of the nanocomposite were examined by Raman spectroscopy analysis. The presence of a strong band (1500 cm-1) and the absence of other lower frequency bands confirmed that the absence of crystallinity of Polyp-Au-GO nanocomposite. The thermal properties of Polyp-Au-GO nanocomposite were determined by TGA analysis. The results revealed that 15% of its weight loss has occurred at 300 °C. Further, the growth of VSMCs was inhibited by the treatment of Polyp-Au-GO composite at 72 h. The IC50 value was registered at 0.57 μg/mL. Additionally, the Polyp-Au-GO composite arrest G1 cell cycle and down-regulated cell cycle proteins. These Polyp-Au-GO composite also reduced the extracellular ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Furthermore, Polyp-Au-GO composite inhibited TNF-R-evoked inflammatory responses. Moreover, Polyp-Au-GO composite inhibited of CEC proliferation. These results suggest that Polyp-Au-GO composite inhibits VSMC proliferation and TNF-R-mediated inflammatory responses. This study suggested the therapeutic role of Polyp-Au-GO composite in cardiovascular disease.
