Title:
植物、動物、およびヒトのワクチンとして並びに免疫療法に有用な抗体の免疫優性エピトープの弱化
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3851938
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention provides a vaccine that can be administered to a mammal to cause immunoprotection in the mammal against a pathogenic organism that has an immunodominant epitope. The vaccine includes a modified form of the antigen in which the immunodominant epitope is located. In this modified form, the immunodominant epitope is immunodampened by any of a number of techniques. Examples of immunodampening techniques include addition of N-linked glycosylation sites, change of the net charge on the epitope, and substitution with a tolerated sequence. The vaccine also includes a pharmacologically acceptable carrier.
