摘要
Toll样受体(TLR)是一类跨膜蛋白,它在先天免疫中发挥关键作用。当TLR接触潜在威胁时会启动信号级联反应,导致细胞因子及趋化因子的释放、抗原递呈细胞的成熟和免疫活化。能激活TLR的分子可以用于疫苗开发和用作疫苗佐剂。基于由组合技术或DNA疫苗产生的抗原,疫苗佐剂可以促进更有效的疫苗的生产。这些抗原因为缺少病原体的内源先天免疫刺激性成分,通常没有免疫原性。本文完整讨论了此类未来化合物的结构性质。

摘要: Toll like receptors (TLRs) are a family of transmembrane proteins which play a key role in innate immunity. When TLRs come into contact with a potential threat, they initiate a signaling cascade leading to release of cytokines and chemokines, maturation of antigen presenting cells and immune activation. Molecules which can activate TLRs may be utilized for vaccine development and act as vaccine adjuvants. Adjuvants can facilitate production of more effective vaccines based on antigens produced by recombinant techniques or by DNA vaccines, which are often poorly immunogenic since they lack the endogenous innate immunostimulatory components of the pathogen. In this paper the structural properties of such prospective compounds are thoroughly discussed.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
