摘要:
The present invention comprises novel compositions and methods for elicitinghigh immune responses, of great specificity yielding conformationallysensitive antibodies. These antibodies recognize specific epitopes on a widevariety of antigens including but not limited to, amyloid protein, prionprotein, P170 glycoprotein. The novel compositions of the invention comprisesupramolecular antigenic constructs generally comprising a peptide sequence,covalently attached to pegylated lysine resulting in modified and enhancedpeptide presentation. The unique modification methodology of the presentinvention is applicable to a variety of peptides and can ultimately beemployed in therapeutic formulations and vaccines for diseases and disorderssuch as Alzheimer's disease.
