Immunotherapeutic Potential of Modified Lipooligosaccharides/Lipid A: A Platform for “Custom-designed Adjuvants”
Published Wednesday, November 12, 2014Lipid A, the hydrophobic anchor of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), can stimulate the innate immune system via Toll-like receptor 4/myeloid differentiation factor 2 (TLR4/MD2), leading to the release of inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and type I interferons. In turn, this response increases the host’s ability to eradicate a pathogen and supports...
