摘要:
This invention uses our knowledge of the mechanisms by which antigen is recognized by T cells to identify and prepare human papillomavirus (HPV) epitopes, and to develop epitope-based vaccines directed towards HPV. More specifically, this application communicates our discovery of pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use in the prevention and treatment of HPV infection.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to peptides, and nucleic acids encoding them, derived from the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). The peptides are those which elicit a CTL and/or HTL response in a host. The invention is also directed to compositions and vaccines for prevention and treatment of HCV infection and diagnostic methods for detection of HCV exposure in patients.
摘要:
The subject invention provides peptides, polypeptides, proteins and/or antibodies of reduced immunogenicity. Also provided are methods of reducing the immunogenicity of peptides, polypeptides, proteins and/or antibodies. In certain embodiments, the immunogenicity of therapeutic peptides, polypeptides, proteins, and/or antibodies such as hormones, growth factors, and cytokines is reduced.

摘要:
The present invention provides the means and methods for selecting immunogenic peptides and the immunogenic peptide compositions capable of specifically binding glycoproteins encoded by HLA alleles and inducing T cell activation in T cells restricted by the allele. The peptides are useful to elicit an immune response against a desired antigen.
