A recombinant anchorless respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion (F) protein/monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL) vaccine protects against RSV-induced replication and lung pathology
Highlights • Developed a recombinant RSV F-protein based subunit vaccine formulated with monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL). • Vaccine reduced lung viral replication when given in a prime-boost regimen. • Animals vaccinated showed no evidence of exacerbation of lung pathology or induction of cytokine stor...

Summary: | Highlights • Developed a recombinant RSV F-protein based subunit vaccine formulated with monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL). • Vaccine reduced lung viral replication when given in a prime-boost regimen. • Animals vaccinated showed no evidence of exacerbation of lung pathology or induction of cytokine storm upon RSV challenge. • MPL acts as an adjuvant and immunomodulatory in the F-protein based vaccine. |
