General description

22:0 Trehalose is a bioactive glycolipid and an analog of mycobacterial cord factor.

Application

22:0 Trehalose has been used as an adjuvant for Chlamydia vaccine. It has also been used as a component in adjuvant DMT (dimethyldioctadecylammonium/monophosphoryl lipid A/trehalose 6,6′-dibehenate (DDA/MPL/TDB)) to prepare DMT liposome adjuvanted CTT3H (polyprotein) vaccine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Incorporation of trehalose 6,6′-dibehenate (TDB) into cationic liposomes composed of the quaternary ammonium compound dimethyldioctadecylammonium (DDA) produce an adjuvant system which induces a powerful cell-mediated immune response and a strong antibody response, desirable for a high number of disease targets. It acts as an immunomodulator. 22:0 Trehalose is considered less toxic and an efficient vaccine adjuvant for tuberculosis.

Major impediments to developing a Chlamydia vaccine lie in identifying immunologically relevant T-cell antigens and delivery in a manner to stimulate protective immunity. Using an immunoproteomic approach, we previously identified three immunodominant Chlamydia T-cell antigens (PmpG-1, PmpE/F-2, and RplF). Because

Different strategies have been proposed for the development of protein subunit vaccine candidates for tuberculosis (TB), which shows better safety than other types of candidates and the currently used Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine. In order to develop more effective protein
