Co-stimulatory tumor necrosis factor ligands as adjuvants for the development of subunit-based anticancer vaccines
Tumor-associated antigen (TAA) subunit-based vaccines constitute promising tools for the anticancer immunotherapy. Given the weak antigenic nature of most TAAs, however, the efficacy of TAA-based vaccines requires adjuvants exerting potent immunostimulatory functions. Co-stimulatory members of the tumor necrosis factor ligand (TNFL) family may be used in this sense due to their pleiotropic and ...
متن کاملPseudo-Mannosylated DC-SIGN Ligands as Potential Adjuvants for HIV Vaccines
The development of new and effective adjuvants may play a fundamental role in improving HIV vaccine efficacy. New classes of vaccine adjuvants activate innate immunity receptors, notably toll like receptors (TLRs). Adjuvants targeting the C-Type lectin receptor DC-SIGN may be alternative or complementary to adjuvants based on TRL activation. Herein we evaluate the ability of the glycomimetic DC...
متن کاملAdjuvants designed for veterinary and human vaccines.
Adjuvants play an important role in the efficacy of vaccines as the antigens become more and more purified. Indeed recombinant proteins or synthetic peptides are safer than crude inactivated micro-organism, but less immunogenic. This can be balanced by specific adjuvants. But there is no universal adjuvants and their action is not yet clear and rely on different mechanisms. Then, they must be a...
متن کاملTLR, NLR and other modulators as infectious disease vaccine adjuvants
Vaccines based on attenuated or killed viruses and bacteria are highly effective in preventing infection with a range of pathogens, but can have safety issues. Therefore, there is a move towards subunit vaccines based on recombinant proteins or naked DNA. However, protein subunit vaccines are typically poorly immunogenic when administered alone and therefore require co-administration with adjuv...
متن کاملNovel Adjuvants for Vaccines
The review covers basic recent discoveries on the mechanism of action of adjuvants, which have been developed in the last decade. In particular, it focuses on the activation of TOLL like receptors and subsequent release of pro-inflammatory lymphokines (innate immunity), which, in turn, are thought to activate antigen specific responses (adaptive immunity). Given the number of novel adjuvants av...
