A lymph node–targeted Amphiphile vaccine induces potent cellular and humoral immunity to SARS-CoV-2
Science Advances Martin P. Steinbuck, Lochana M. Seenappa, Aniela Jakubowski, Lisa K. McNeil, Christopher M. Haqq*, Peter C. DeMuth The profound consequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mandate urgent development of effective vaccines. Here, we evaluated an Amphiphile (AMP) vaccine adjuvant, AMP-CpG, composed of diacyl lipid–modified CpG, admixed with the SARS-CoV-2 Spike-2 receptor […] » Read more
World Vaccine Congress: A lymph node targeted Amphiphile vaccine induces potent cellular and humoral immunity to SARS-CoV-2
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic’s public health, economic, and social impacts mandate urgent development of effective vaccines to contain or eradicate infection. To that end, we evaluated a novel amphiphile (AMP) vaccine adjuvant, AMP-CpG, composed of diacyl lipid-modified CpG, admixed with the SARS-CoV-2 Spike-2 receptor binding domain (Spike RBD) protein for immunization (ELI 005). » Read more

A lymph node targeted Amphiphile vaccine induces potent cellular and humoral immunity to SARS-CoV-2
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has led to public health, economic, and social consequences that mandate urgent development of effective vaccines to contain or eradicate infection. To that end, we evaluated a novel amphiphile (AMP) vaccine adjuvant, AMP-CpG, composed of diacyl lipid-modified CpG, admixed with the SARS-CoV-2 Spike-2 receptor binding domain protein as a candidate vaccine (ELI-005) […] » Read more

Orchestrating the immune system for precision immunity — Elicio’s lymph node-targeting Amphiphile technology delivers potent T cell activation and boosts the effects of engineered cell therapies
Immune cells are naturally gifted in recognizing antigens and fighting off infection and disease. But, just like talented people, they need nurturing and the right training to fulfil their true potential. For immune cells this means a spell in lymph nodes— the training camps of the immune system—where they receive specialized instruction in the art of immune surveillance and attack. » Read more
