Tiny but mighty: small molecules as vaccine adjuvants

Screening small molecule (SM) libraries now replaces traditional methods for vaccine adjuvant discovery. A study by Soni et al. highlights the use of primary human cells in high-throughput screening (HTS), leading to the discovery of a novel SM TLR7/8 agonist, PVP-037. This compound successfully res...

Zusammenfassung:Screening small molecule (SM) libraries now replaces traditional methods for vaccine adjuvant discovery. A study by Soni et al. highlights the use of primary human cells in high-throughput screening (HTS), leading to the discovery of a novel SM TLR7/8 agonist, PVP-037. This compound successfully restored vaccine-induced immune responses in aged mice. Screening small molecule (SM) libraries now replaces traditional methods for vaccine adjuvant discovery.
