NANOVACCINE MPLA/CpG-loaded liposome particle, p(M+C), was produced via a thin-film hydration approach by using cationic 1,2dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP), helper lipid 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), and cholesterol as carrier materials. Previous research on vaccines using the spike protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) as the subunit showed that the antibodies could effectively prevent the coronavirus from binding to the cell and undergoing membrane fusion, neutralizing the virus during infection. Moreover, MPLA/CpG-loaded liposomes alone can be used as nanoparticulate adjuvants of a coronavirus vaccine with different antigens to enhance an innate immunity and thus a cellular immune response. ./cache/cord-030923-r0lfot3w.txt ./txt/cord-030923-r0lfot3w.txt
