Peptide-based vaccination against OPN integrin binding sites does not improve cardio-metabolic disease in mice

Highlights • Active immunization with OPN-derived peptides was moderately stable in mice. • Treatment with peptide-based vaccine did not improve adipose tissue inflammation, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis in a DIO and cardio-metabolic animal model. • Further investigations should focus on ep...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Active immunization with OPN-derived peptides was moderately stable in mice. • Treatment with peptide-based vaccine did not improve adipose tissue inflammation, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis in a DIO and cardio-metabolic animal model. • Further investigations should focus on epitope design and novel immunization strategies.
