Immune System Activation via Enhanced Activation by Squalene-Based Adjuvant (N/A)

Target
N/A
Molecular classification
Adjuvant, Immunological enhancer
01

Overview

Squalene-based adjuvants are immunological enhancers that broadly activate the immune system, particularly in the context of vaccines. They function through DAMP signaling, increased APC recruitment and antigen presentation, and activation of both innate and adaptive immune arms, leading to stronger and broader B- and T-cell responses without a single molecular target or receptor. Key pathways involved include MyD88-dependent signaling, RIPK3-dependent necroptosis, and ASC/NLRP3-independent activation.
