Chimeric flagellin as the self-adjuvanting antigen for the activation of immune response against Helicobacter pylori

Highlights ► Chimeric flagellin was composed of E. coli FliC and H. pylori FlaA domains. ► Chimeric flagellin activates innate immune response through TLR5 activation. ► Variable domains of H. pylori FlaA represent the immunodominant epitopes. ► Chimeric flagellin acted as adjuvant eliciting strong...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► Chimeric flagellin was composed of E. coli FliC and H. pylori FlaA domains. ► Chimeric flagellin activates innate immune response through TLR5 activation. ► Variable domains of H. pylori FlaA represent the immunodominant epitopes. ► Chimeric flagellin acted as adjuvant eliciting strong serum IgG antibody response. ► Chimeric flagellin with alum protects mice against H. pylori colonization.
