    Abstract: Compositions, methods and uses of genetically modified NK cells to elicit immune response against cells infected with microorganisms are presented. In some embodiments, NK cells can be genetically modified with a recombinant nucleic acid that includes a segment encoding an extracellular single-chain variant fragment that specifically binds a CD1-lipid antigen complex and another segment encoding an intracellular activation domain, and a linker between those segments. In other embodiments, the NK cells can be genetically modified with a recombinant nucleic acid that includes a segment encoding an a chain T cell receptor and a β chain T cell receptor, and another segment encoding at least a portion of CD3δ and at least a portion of CD3γ. The genetically modified NK cells can be administered to the patient infected with microorganism to trigger immune response specific to the cells infected with the microorganism.

    Abstract: Recombinant viruses and viral nucleic acids are contemplated that provide to the infected cell various regulatory molecules that stimulate T-cell and NK-cell activity and that suppress inhibition of T-cell and NK-cell activity. Most preferably, the virus and viral nucleic acid will further include a human cancer-associated sequence, and especially a sequence that encodes a plurality of cancer associated antigens, cancer specific antigens, and/or patient and tumor specific neoantigens. Especially preferred regulatory molecules include CD80 (B7.1), CD86 (B7.2), CD54 (ICAM-1/BB2), CD11 (LFA-1), and an inhibitor of CTLA-4.

    Abstract: Compositions, methods, and uses of recombinant nucleic acids to elicit Th1- or Th2-biased immune responses in an individual are presented. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid includes a first nucleic acid segment encoding a MHC-II trafficking signal and a second nucleic acid segment encoding a polytope peptide and a Th1-specific polarizing epitope or a Th2-specific polarizing epitope. Optionally, the Th1-specific polarizing epitope or the Th2-specific polarizing epitope is part of the polytope peptide. The recombinant nucleic acid can be inserted in a viral, bacterial, or yeast expression vector so that the recombinant protein encoded by the recombinant nucleic acid can be expressed in an antigen presenting cell of an individual to elicit Th1- or Th2-biased immune response in the individual.
