ABSTRACT:
Vaccines directed against antigens such as membrane proteins from pathogens or tumor cells are disclosed. Also described are methods of forming reconstituted viral membranes, with membrane fusion activity, which are lipid bilayer membranes preferably containing natural lipids of a virus, a viral fusion protein, one or more optional further antigens as well as amphiphilic adjuvants. Pharmaceutical compositions including such reconstituted viral membranes are also described.
