摘要
Laminarin-CRM197 glycoconjugates were previously demonstrated to be immunogenic and confer protection against Candida albicans in mice. Laminarin consists of beta-(1,3) glucan repeating units, with sporadic beta-(1,6) branches. A set of short glucans was used to study the effect of the beta-(1,6) branch on the antigenicity of linear beta-(1,3) glucans. A linear beta-(1,3) glucan hexasaccharide was selected as the best fragment able to inhibit the binding between laminarin and antilaminarin antibodies. The hexamer was then conjugated to CRM197 and induced, in mice, significant titers of specific antilaminarin antibodies comparable with those raised by the Lam-CRM197 conjugate.
