Zusammenfassung:The invention provides compositions containing an antigen and a TIM targetin g molecule. The invention additionally provides a TIM targeting molecule conjugate, for example, a TIM targeting molecule targeted to a therapeutic o r diagnostic moiety. The invention additionally provides methods of using such compositions. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of stimulating an immune response in an individual by administering a compositi on comprising an antigen and a TIM targeting molecule in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In another embodiment, the invention provides a method o f stimulating an immune response in an individual by administering an antigen and a TIM targeting molecule, which can be administered together in a single composition or separately.
