Abstract

In article number 1703207, Jianjun Chen, Zongqiang Cui, and co-workers develop an intranasal nanovaccine which provides protection against homo- and heterosubtypic influenza. The 3M 2e-rHF nanovaccine is constructed by displaying three-sequential repeats of the influenza conserved antigen M2e on the self-assembling recombinant human heavy chain ferritin (rHF) cage. Intranasal vaccination with 3M2e-rHF in the absence of adjuvants confers complete protection against a lethal infection of homosubtypic H1N1 and heterosubtypic H9N2 virus.
