A novel coconjugate comprising an immunogenic protein or protein complex having a first set of covalent linkages to low molecular weight moieties, -a⁻, which have an anionic or polyanionic character at physiological pH, and a second set of covalent linkages to peptides comprising Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Principal Neutralizing Determinants (PNDs), or peptides immunologically equivalent therewith, is useful for inducing anti-peptide immune responses in mammals, for inducing HIV-neutralizing antibodies in mammals, for formulating vaccines to prevent HIV infection or disease, including the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), or for treating humans afflicted with HIV infection or disease.
一种新型共轭物,由免疫原性蛋白质或蛋白质复合物组成,其第一组共价连接为低分子量分子-a-,在生理pH值下具有阴离子或多阴离子特性,第二组共价连接为包含人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)主要中和决定簇(
PNDs)的肽、或与之免疫等效的肽,可用于诱导哺乳动物的抗肽免疫反应、诱导哺乳动物的 HIV 中和
抗体、配制疫苗以预防 HIV 感染或疾病(包括获得性免疫缺陷综合征(AIDS))或治疗受 HIV 感染或疾病困扰的人类。
