          Shrimp anti-lipopolysaccharide factor         |  
      | Vaxjo ID | 301 |  
      | Vaccine Adjuvant Name | Shrimp anti-lipopolysaccharide factor |  
      | Adjuvant VO ID | VO_0005270 |  
      | Description | Shrimp anti-lipopolysaccharide factor (SALF) is an antimicrobial peptide with reported anticancer activities, including suppression of tumor progression. |  
      | Stage of Development | Research |  
      | Host Species for Testing | Mouse |  
      | Structure | Antimicrobial peptide |  
      | Preparation | The paper describes the preparation of a vaccine comprising SALF in conjunction with inactivated murine bladder carcinoma cells (MBT-2) lysate, but not the preparation of SALF itself. |  
      | Dosage | The paper states that immunization of 7, 14, and 21-day-old mice was performed |  
      | Function | Our study shows that SALF added to cell culture media inhibits growth progression of MBT-2, and that SALF together with inactivated MBT-2 lysate elevates the level of inflammasome activity, and modulates the levels of IL-1, MCP-1, IL-6, IL-12, and TNF in mouse macrophages. |
