Description
Immunization with adjuvanted antigen results in coordinate changes in gene expression. Combination adjuvants exploit the interplay between different immunostimulants to promote immune response to vaccination. The Adjuvant System 01 (AS01) is a liposome-based combination adjuvant which contains two immunostimulants, MPL and QS-21 Here, we assess the contribution of the components of AS01 on its immunogenicity by comparing the transcriptional response induced in the draining lymph node by AS01, MPL and QS-21 at 2,4 or 6h after intramuscolar (i.m.) immunization
