Abstract
-
Endophytes colonize tissues of healthy host plants and play
a crucial role in plant growth and development. However,
little attention has been paid to the endophytes of tuber crops
such as cassava, which is used as a staple food by approximately
800 million people worldwide. This study aimed to
elucidate the diversity and composition of endophytic bacterial
and fungal communities in different cassava cultivars
using high-throughput sequencing. Although no significant
differences in richness or diversity were observed among the
different cassava cultivars, the community compositions were
diverse. Two cultivars (SC124 and SC205) tolerant to root rot
exhibited similar community compositions, while two other
cultivars (SC10 and SC5), which are moderately and highly
susceptible to root rot, respectively, harboured similar community
compositions. Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Ascomycota
dominated the endophyte assemblages, with Weissella,
Serratia, Lasiodiplodia, Fusarium, and Diaporthe being the
predominant genera. The differentially abundant taxonomic
clades between the tolerant and susceptible cultivars were
mainly rare taxa, such as Lachnoclostridium_5, Rhizobium,
Lampropedia, and Stenotrophomonas. These seemed to be key
genera that affected the susceptibility of cassava to root rot.
Moreover, the comparison of KEGG functional profiles revealed
that ‘Environmental adaptation’ category was significantly
enriched in the tolerant cultivars, while ‘Infectious
diseases: Parasitic’ category was significantly enriched in the
susceptible cultivars. The present findings open opportunities
for further studies on the roles of endophytes in the susceptibility
of plants to diseases.

Abstract
-
Most commercialized virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines use
aluminum salt as adjuvant, even though VLPs provoke adequate
antibody responses without adjuvant. We do not have
detailed knowledge of how adjuvant affects the profile of anti-
VLP antibodies. Meanwhile, there is evidence that differences
between vaccination protocols influence the glycosylation of
antibodies, which may alter their effector functions. In the
present study a murine model was used to investigate the effects
of dosing schedule and adjuvant on the antibody profiles
and glycosylation levels of antigen-specific antibody responses
to human papillomavirus type 16 L1 (HPV16 L1)
VLPs. Mice received subcutaneously 2,000 ng of antigen divided
into 4 or 7 doses. The HPV16 L1 VLPs elicited > 4 log10
anti-HPV16 L1 IgG titers without adjuvant, and aluminum
hydroxide as adjuvant increased IgG titers 1.3- to 4-fold and
reduced the anti-HPV16 L1 IgG2a / anti-HPV16 L1 IgG1
ratio value (use of aluminum hydroxide reduced the ratio of
the IgG2a). Immunization with HPV16 L1 VLPs in combination
with Freund’s adjuvant enhanced IgG titers 5- to 12-
fold. Seven-dose immunization markedly increased anti-
HPV16 L1 IgM titers compared to four-dose immunization,
as well as increasing the proportion of glycosylated antibodies.
Our results suggest that antibody glycosylation can be controlled
immunologically, and IgG and IgM profiles and glycosylation
profiles of the vaccine-induced antibodies can be
used as indicators reflecting the vaccine characteristics. These
results
indicate that the HPV16 L1 VLP dosing schedule can
affect the quality of antigen-specific antibody responses. We
suggest that dosing schedules should be noted in vaccination
protocols for VLP-based vaccines.

Abstract
-
Emerging viruses pose a major threat to humans and livestock
with global public health and economic burdens. Vaccination
remains an effective tool to reduce this threat, and
yet, the conventional cell culture often fails to produce sufficient
vaccine dose. As an alternative to cell-culture based
vaccine, virus-like particles (VLPs) are considered as a highpriority
vaccine strategy against emerging viruses. VLPs represent
highly ordered repetitive structures via macromolecular
assemblies of viral proteins. The particulate nature allows efficient
uptake into antigen presenting cells stimulating both
innate and adaptive immune responses towards enhanced
vaccine efficacy. Increasing research activity and translation
opportunity necessitate the advances in the design of VLPs
and new bioprocessing modalities for efficient and cost-effective
production. Herein, we describe major achievements
and challenges in this endeavor, with respect to designing
strategies to harnessing the immunogenic potential, production
platforms, downstream processes, and some exemplary
case
s in developing VLP-based vaccines.

Abstract
-
VP2 is the minor structural protein of noroviruses (NoV) and may function in NoV particle stability. To determine the function of VP2 in the stability of the NoV particle, we constructed and purified two kinds of virus-like particles (VLPs), namely, VLPs (VP1) and VLPs (VP1+VP2), from Sf9 cells infected with recombinant baculoviruses by using a Bac-to-Bac? baculovirus expression system. The two kinds of VLPs were treated with different phosphate buffers (pH 2 to pH 8); the secondary structure was then analyzed by far UV circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Results showed
that significant disruptions of the secondary structure of proteins were not observed at pH 2 to pH 7. At pH 8, the percentages of α-helix, β-sheet, and β-turn in VLPs (VP1) were decreased from 11% to 8%, from 37% to 32%, and from 20% to 16%, respectively. The percentage of coil was increased from 32% to 44%. By contrast, the percentages of α-helix, β-sheet, and β-turn in VLPs (VP1+VP2) were decreased
from 11% to 10%, from 37% to 35%, and from 20% to 19%, respectively. The percentage of coil was increased from 32% to 36%. VLPs (VP1+VP2) was likely more stable than VLPs (VP1), as indicated by the percentage of the secondary
structures analyzed by CD. These results suggested that VP2 could stabilize the secondary structure of VLPs under alkaline pH conditions. This study provided novel
insights into the molecular mechanism of the function of VP2 in the stability of NoV particles.

Abstract
-
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the cause of most cases of cervical cancer. HPV type 58 (HPV58) is the second most frequent cause of cervical cancer and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in Asia and South / Central America, respectively. However, there is no vaccine against HPV58, although there are commercially available vaccines against HPV16 and 18. In this study, we produced HPV58 L1 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and investigated its immunogenicity. We first determined the optimum period of culture for obtaining HPV58 L1. We found that a considerable portion of the HPV58 L1 resulting from 48 h culture cannot be recovered by purification, while the HPV58 L1 resulting from 144 h culture is recovered efficiently: the yield of HPV58 L1 finally recovered from 144 h culture was 2.3 times higher than that from 48 h culture, although the production level of L1 protein from 144 h culture was lower than that from 48 h culture. These results indicate that the proportion of functional L1 protein from 144 h-cultured cells is significantly higher than that of 48 h-cultured cells. The HPV58 L1 purified from the 144 h culture was correctly assembled into structures similar to naturally occurring HPV virions. Immunization with the HPV58 L1 efficiently elicited anti-HPV58 neutralizing antibodies and antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell proliferations, without the need for adjuvant. Our findings provide a convenient method for obtaining substantial amounts of highly immunogenic HPV58 L1 from S. cerevisiae.
