Abstract
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) plays an important role in active wound repair. However, the existing dosage forms in clinical applications are mainly sprays and freeze-dried powders, which are prone to inactivation and cannot achieve a controlled release. In this study, a bioactive wound dressing named bFGF-ATP-Zn/polycaprolactone (PCL) nanodressing with a "core-shell" structure was fabricated by emulsion electrospinning, enabling the sustained release of bFGF. Based on the coordination and electrostatic interactions among bFGF, ATP, and Zn2+, as well as their synergistic effect on promoting wound healing, a bFGF-ATP-Zn ternary combination system was prepared with higher cell proliferation activity and used as the water phase for emulsion electrospinning. The bFGF-ATP-Zn/PCL nanodressing demonstrated improved mechanical properties, sustained release of bFGF, cytocompatibility, and hemocompatibility. It increased the proliferation activity of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) and enhanced collagen secretion by 1.39 and 3.45 times, respectively, while reducing the hemolysis rate to 3.13%. The application of the bFGF-ATP-Zn/PCL nanodressing in mouse full-thickness skin defect repair showed its ability to accelerate wound healing and reduce wound scarring within 14 days. These results provide a research basis for the development and application of this bioactive wound dressing product.

Synthesis of a crystalline zeolitic imidazole framework-8 nano-coating on single environment-sensitive viral particles for enhanced immune responses. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2023; 5:1433-1449. [PMID: 36866262 PMCID: PMC9972853 DOI: 10.1039/d2na00767c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Encapsulating antigens with zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) exhibits many advantages in vaccine development. However, most viral antigens with complex particulate structures are sensitive to pH or ionic strength, which cannot tolerate harsh synthesis conditions of ZIF-8. Balancing the viral integrity and the growth of ZIF-8 crystals is crucial for the successful encapsulation of these environment-sensitive antigens in ZIF-8. Here, we explored the synthesis of ZIF-8 on inactivated foot and mouth disease virus (known as 146S), which is easily disassociated into no immunogenic subunits under the existing ZIF-8 synthesis conditions. Our results showed that intact 146S could be encapsulated into ZIF-8 with high embedding efficiency by lowering the pH of the 2-MIM solution to 9.0. The size and morphology of 146S@ZIF-8 could be further optimized by increasing the amount of Zn2+ or adding cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). 146S@ZIF-8 with a uniform diameter of about 49 nm could be synthesized by adding 0.01% CTAB, which was speculated to be composed of single 146S armored with nanometer-scale ZIF-8 crystal networks. Plenty of histidine on the 146S surface forms a unique His-Zn-MIM coordination in the near vicinity of 146S particles, which greatly increases the thermostability of 146S by about 5 °C, and the nano-scale ZIF-8 crystal coating exhibited extraordinary stability to resist EDTE-treatment. More importantly, the well-controlled size and morphology enabled 146S@ZIF-8(0.01% CTAB) to facilitate antigen uptake. The immunization of 146S@ZIF-8(4×Zn2+) or 146S@ZIF-8(0.01% CTAB) significantly enhanced the specific antibody titers and promoted the differentiation of memory T cells without adding another immunopotentiator. This study reported for the first time the strategy of the synthesis of crystalline ZIF-8 on an environment-sensitive antigen and demonstrated that the nano-size and appropriate morphology of ZIF-8 are crucial to exert adjuvant effects, thus expanding the application of MOFs in vaccine delivery.

Abstract
Maintaining structural integrity and enhancing stability of inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus (iFMDV) antigen in adjuvants is crucial to ensure the vaccine potency. Unfortunately, formulation with most reported adjuvants leads to the accelerated dissociation of iFMDV into inactive pentamers. Here, an ionic liquid, i.e., choline and niacin ([Cho][Nic]), which was found to stabilize iFMDV against the acid- and thermo- induced dissociation in buffer solution, was applied to construct a novel oil-in-ionic liquid (o/IL) nanoemulsion adjuvant composed of [Cho][Nic], squalene, and Tween 80. The o/IL nanoemulsion formulated with iFMDV has a monodisperse diameter of 135.8 ± 40.4 nm. The thermostability and long-term stability of iFMDV were remarkably enhanced in o/IL nanoemulsion compared with that in the o/w emulsion without [Cho][Nic] and in the commercial Montanide ISA 206 adjuvant. The o/IL nanoemulsion exerted its adjuvant effects by improving the humoral immune responses. Immunization of o/IL nanoemulsion adjuvanted iFMDV induced specific IgG titers similar to that adjuvanted by Montanide ISA 206 and about 4-fold higher than the un-adjuvanted iFMDV, also promoted the activation of B lymphocytes and the secretion of interleukin-4 in the mice model. This [Cho][Nic]-based o/IL nanoemulsion can serve as a promising adjuvant platform for the foot-and-mouth disease vaccine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Before release, vaccine batches are assessed for quality to evaluate whether they meet the product specifications. Vaccine batch tests, in particular of inactivated and toxoid vaccines, still largely rely on in vivo methods. Improved vaccine production processes, ethical concerns, and suboptimal performance of some in vivo tests have led to the development of in vitro alternatives. AREAS COVERED This review describes the scientific constraints that need to be overcome for replacement of in vivo batch tests, as well as potential solutions. Topics include the critical quality attributes of vaccines that require testing, the use of cell-based assays to mimic aspects of in vivo vaccine-induced immune responses, how difficulties with testing adjuvanted vaccines in vitro can be overcome, the use of altered batches to validate new in vitro test methods, and how cooperation between different stakeholders is key to moving the transition forward. EXPERT OPINION For safety testing, many in vitro alternatives are already available or at an advanced level of development. For potency testing, in vitro alternatives largely comprise immunochemical methods that assess several, but not all critical vaccine properties. One-to-one replacement by in vitro alternatives is not always possible and a combination of methods may be required.

Possible Action of Transition Divalent Metal Ions at the Inter-Pentameric Interface of Inactivated Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Provide A Simple but Effective Approach to Enhance Stability. J Virol 2021; 95:JVI.02431-20. [PMID: 33441340 PMCID: PMC8092711 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.02431-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The structural instability of inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) hinders the development of vaccine industry. Here we found that some transition metal ions like Cu2+ and Ni2+ could specifically bind to FMDV capsids at capacities about 7089 and 3448 metal ions per capsid, respectively. These values are about 33- and 16-folds of the binding capacity of non-transition metal ion Ca2+ (about 214 per capsid). Further thermodynamic studies indicated that all these three metal ions bound to the capsids in spontaneous enthalpy driving manners (ΔG<0, ΔH<0, ΔS<0), and the Cu2+ binding had the highest affinity. The binding of Cu2+ and Ni2+ could enhance both the thermostability and acid-resistant stability of capsids, while the binding of Ca2+ was helpful only to the thermostability of the capsids. Animal experiments showed that the immunization of FMDV bound with Cu2+ induced the highest specific antibody titers in mice. Coincidently, the FMDV bound with Cu2+ exhibited significantly enhanced affinities to integrin β6 and heparin sulfate, both of which are important cell surface receptors for FMDV attaching. Finally, the specific interaction between capsids and Cu2+ or Ni2+ was applied to direct purification of FMDV from crude cell culture feedstock by the immobilized metal affinity chromatography. Based on our new findings and structural analysis of the FMDV capsid, a "transition metal ion bridges" mechanism that describes linkage between adjacent histidine and other amino acids at the inter-pentameric interface of the capsids by transition metal ions coordination action was proposed to explain their stabilizing effect imposed on the capsid.IMPORTANCE How to stabilize the inactivated FMDV without affecting virus infectivity and immunogenicity is a big challenge in vaccine industry. The electrostatic repulsion induced by protonation of a large amount of histidine residues at the inter-pentameric interface of viral capsids is one of the major mechanisms causing the dissociation of capsids. In the present work, this structural disadvantage inspired us to stabilize the capsids through coordinating transition metal ions with the adjacent histidine residues in FMDV capsid, instead of removing or substituting them. This approach was proved effective to enhance not only the stability of FMDV, but also enhance the specific antibody responses; thus, providing a new guideline for designing an easy-to-use strategy suitable for large-scale production of FMDV vaccine antigen.

On-line separation and quantification of virus antigens of different serotypes in multivalent vaccines by capillary zone electrophoresis: A case study for quality control of foot-and-mouth disease virus vaccines. J Chromatogr A 2020; 1637:461834.

Abstract
Accurate quantification of effective antigens of different serotypes is crucial for quality control of multivalent vaccines but challenging. A simple and rapid capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was developed for on-line separation and quantification of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) antigens in monovalent and bivalent FMDV vaccines. The FMDV peak identity in CZE was demonstrated by the study of FMDV dissociation combined with high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) analysis. After optimizing CZE conditions including UV detecting wavelength, injection volume, and separation voltage, both serotype A and O FMDV showed good reproducibility (RSD <5%) and linear responses (R2=0.999) between the peak area and FMDV content in the concentration range of 15-400 μg/mL. The two serotypes of FMDV with similar size had different migration time in CZE according to their different zeta potential, which allows them to be separated and quantified, with accuracy of <10% relative error. CZE was then successfully applied for antigen quantification of commercial O monovalent and A/O bivalent FMDV vaccines. Compared with HPSEC, CZE was not only able to quantify each serotype of FMDV, but also free from interference of nucleic acids impurities. In summary, the CZE can be a simple, rapid, and reliable tool for quality control of monovalent and bivalent FMDV vaccines. The CZE method can also be further extended to the quality control of other multivalent virus and virus like particle vaccines.

Abstract
Super large proteinaceous particles (SLPPs) such as virus, virus like particles, and extracellular vesicles have successful and promising applications in vaccination, gene therapy, and cancer treatment. The unstable nature, the complex particulate structure and composition are challenges for their manufacturing and applications. Rational design of the processing should be built on the basis of fully understanding the characteristics of these bio-particles. This review highlights useful analytical techniques for characterization and stabilization of SLPPs in the process development and product formulations, including high performance size exclusion chromatography, multi-angle laser light scattering, asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation, nanoparticle tracking analysis, CZE, differential scanning calorimetry, differential scanning fluorescence, isothermal titration calorimetry , and dual polarization interferometry. These advanced analytical techniques will be helpful in obtaining deep insight into the mechanism related to denaturation of SLPPs, and more importantly, in seeking solutions to preserve their biological functions against deactivation or denaturation. Combination of different physicochemical techniques, and correlation with in vitro or in vivo biological activity analyses, are considered to be the future trend of development in order to guarantee a high quality, safety, and efficacy of SLPPs.

Abstract
The interactions between antigen and adjuvant were among the most significant factors influencing the immunogenicity of vaccines, especially for unstable antigens like inactivated foot and mouth disease virus (iFMDV). Here we propose a novel antigen delivery pattern based on the coordination interaction between transition metal ions Zn2+ chelated to chitosan nanoparticles and iFMDV, which is known to be rich in histidine. The zinc chelated chitosan particles (CP-PEI-Zn) were prepared by cross-linking chitosan particles (CP) with sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP), modifying with metal chelator polyethylenimine (PEI), and subsequent chelating of Zn2+. The coordination interaction was confirmed by analyzing the adsorption and desorption behavior of iFMDV on CP-PEI-Zn by high-performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), while the CP-PEI without chelating Zn2+ loads iFMDV mainly through electrostatic interactions. The iFMDV loaded on CP-PEI-Zn showed better thermal stability than that on CP-PEI, as revealed by a slightly higher transition temperature (Tm) related to iFMDV dissociation. After subcutaneous immunization in female Balb/C mice, antigens loaded on CP-PEI and CP-PEI-Zn all induced higher specific antibody titers, better activation of B lymphocytes, and more effector-memory T cells proliferation than the free antigen and iFMDV adjuvanted with ISA 206 emulsion did. Moreover, CP-PEI-Zn showed superior efficacy to CP-PEI in promoting the proliferation of effector-memory T cells and secretion of cytokines, indicating a more potent cellular immune response. In summary, the CP-PEI-Zn stabilized the iFMDV after loading and promoted both humoral and cellular immune responses, thus reflecting its potential to be a promising adjuvant for the iFMDV vaccine and other unstable viral antigens.
