Immunostimulators

Prime effective immune responses

Elicit an amplified immune response through specific antigen presentation

Immunostimulators directly influence the immune response. Your selection of immunostimulators will direct the type of immune response. For example, whether the resultant response will be Th1, Th2, Th17 or T-cell mediated immunity.

As a result, they can play important roles in vaccine development by defining the type of immunity obtained (the immune fingerprint).

Explore our range of immunostimulators to fulfil your vaccine's immune correlates of protection.

TLR agonists

Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists are a class of proteins that play fundamental roles in innate immunity. Their discovery was honoured with the 2011 Nobel Prize. By mimicking the structure of pathogens, they can help stimulate the immune system. They are known as excellent adjuvant targets, having been part of several approved vaccines, such as for cervical cancer, shingles and Hepatitis B.

PHAD™

Versatile and effective, PHAD acts as a TLR4 agonist to activate proinflammatory cytokines and antigen-specific effector cells.

Saponins

Derived from the bark of Quillaja saponaria Molina, these natural glycosides can act as potent adjuvants. Their unique ability to stimulate Th1 immune responses and the production of cytotoxic T-cells makes them valuable vaccine adjuvant candidates for both human and veterinary purposes.
