Antigenic and immunogenic properties of totally synthetic peptide-based anti-fertility vaccines.
In this study we describe the results of experiments in which a variety of totally synthetic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) vaccines were assembled and examined for their abilities to elicit antibody responses and induce sterility in mice. It is shown that totally synthetic vaccines consisting of a 15 residue-defined T cell epitope and the 10 residue LHRH epitope not only induced ...
متن کاملPeptide-based synthetic vaccines
Classically all vaccines were produced using live or attenuated microorganisms or parts of them. However, the use of whole organisms, their components or the biological process for vaccine production has several weaknesses. The presence of immunologically redundant biological components or biological impurities in such vaccines might cause major problems. All the disadvantageous of traditional ...
متن کاملHighly immunogenic and totally synthetic lipopeptides as self-adjuvanting immunocontraceptive vaccines.
In this study, we describe the synthesis of various lipopeptides based on the sequence of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and report on their abilities to induce Abs against this "self" hormone when inoculated into mice in the absence of additional adjuvant. The peptides consisted of a colinear CD4(+) T helper cell epitope from the L chain of influenza virus hemagglutinin and LHRH,...
متن کامل[Synthetic peptide vaccines].
This review considers the stages of the development of synthetic peptide vaccines against infectious agents, novel approaches and technologies employed in this process, including bioinformatics, genomics, proteomics, large-scale peptide synthesis, high-throughput screening methods, the use of transgenic animals for modelling human infections. An important role for the development and selection ...
متن کاملSynthetic peptide vaccine design: synthesis and properties of a high-density multiple antigenic peptide system.
A convenient and versatile approach to the direct synthesis of a peptide-antigen matrix by the solid-phase method is described. The approach is called the multiple antigen peptide system (MAP) and it utilizes a simple scaffolding of a low number of sequential levels (n) of a trifunctional amino acid as the core matrix and 2n peptide antigens to form a macromolecule with a high density of peptid...
