Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The development of influenza virus prevention vaccines requires the proper selection of appropriate adjuvants. The mechanism by which poly I: C promotes antibody production has not been fully elucidated. PolyI:C is a synthetic analog for double-stranded RNA and intranasal inoculation with polyI:C strongly enhances IgA production in nasal mucosa. To uncover the mechanisms by which intranasal inoculation with polyI:C enhances IgA production, I investigated immune responses in nasal-associated lymphoid tissue after intranasal vaccination.
