Article Title: Immunogenicity of Theileria parva p67C Antigen Delivered via Adjuvanted CoPoP Liposomes in Cattle and Mice
doi: 10.3390/vaccines14050459
Figure Lengend Snippet: p67C-CoPoP liposome nanoparticle characterisation. ( A ) Schematic representation of the generation of CoPoP liposomes with p67C antigen, including the schematic illustrations of the chemical structures of the key adjuvanting molecules. ( B ) Binding capacity of the p67C antigen to CoPoP liposomes after 3 h incubation in the dark, analysed using HisPur™ Ni-NTA Magnetic Beads and assessed by SDS-PAGE. Formulations included: CA (CoPoP only), CQ (CoPoP/QS-21), CP (CoPoP/PHAD), and CPQ (CoPoP/PHAD/QS-21), compared to soluble p67C (PBS). Non-liposome-bound antigen is shown in lanes “B”, while liposome-bound is shown in lanes “S”. The uncropped blots are shown in . ( C ) Binding capacity of fluorophore-labelled p67C-DY490 to CoPoP liposomes (CA, CQ, CP, and CPQ) was measured and compared with p67C bound to AS01, and ( D ) size and ( E ) zeta potential of p67C bound to CoPoP liposomes were measured by DLS.
