Description for Vaccine Adjuvants
Paperback. Editor(s): Hackett, Charles J.; Harn Jr, Donald A. Series: Infectious Disease. Num Pages: 284 pages, 28 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: MJCM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 17. Weight in Grams: 441.
A cutting-edge review of the major research areas of adjuvant discovery, design, development, and use. The authors lay down a rational basis for vaccine adjuvant function and analyze a number of significantly distinct adjuvant-active molecules to illuminate the principles of their function and use. The focus is on specific receptor-ligand interactions, including the molecular features needed for a compound to possess adjuvant activity. The critical interface zone between the innate and adaptive immune systems is also analyzed to show how adjuvants exert their effects on T- and B-cell activation. Additional chapters address the possibility of tailoring adjuvants to yield optimally ... Read more
