Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a genetically engineered bacterium producing monophosphate lipid A (MPL), in particular to an Escherichia coli directly producing MPL without induction. technical background
[0002] Vaccine adjuvants can non-specifically enhance the body's immune response to antigens and improve vaccine efficiency. Aluminum adjuvant is currently recognized globally as a vaccine adjuvant widely used in humans. It is safe and reliable, and can significantly enhance humoral immune response, but its effect on cellular immunity is not ideal. Therefore, people are devoting themselves to developing more efficient and safer vaccine adjuvants. Lipid A can be recognized by Toll Like Receptor 4 (TLR-4) on the surface of host cells, and then trigger a series of physiological and biochemical reactions in the cells, producing TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, etc. Various inflammatory cytokines. The types and quantities of cytokines mainly depend on the structure of li...
