mesoporous silica nanoparticle

Vaxjo ID 315
Vaccine Adjuvant Name mesoporous silica nanoparticle
Adjuvant VO ID VO_0005270
Description A plain mesoporous silica (MS) nanoparticle without any immunomodulatory molecules that enhances anti-cancer immunity in vivo, promoting both Th1 and Th2 immune responses and enhancing the effector memory of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell populations in the bone marrow, lymph node, and spleen of mice.
Stage of Development Research
Host Species for Testing 3
Components A plain mesoporous silica (MS) nanoparticle
Structure mesoporous silica (MS) nanoparticle
Function A plain mesoporous silica (MS) nanoparticle without any immunomodulatory molecules enhances anti-cancer immunity in vivo. On page 1169, X.P. Wang, N. M. Tsuji, A. Ito and co-workers show that a plain MS nanoparticle promotes both Th1 and Th2 immune responses, and enhances the effector memory of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell populations in the three most important immune organs (bone marrow, lymph node and spleen) of mice.
