A Fusion Protein of Derp2 Allergen and Flagellin Suppresses Experimental Allergic Asthma.

CONCLUSIONS: The Derp2-FlaB fusion protein showed a strong anti-asthma immunomodulatory capacity, leading to the prevention of airway inflammatory responses in a murine disease model through the inhibition of Th2 responses. These findings suggest that the Derp2-FlaB fusion protein would be a promising vaccine candidate for HDM-mediated allergic asthma therapy. PMID: 30661317 [PubMed]
