摘要:

细胞免疫在防御外来病原感染、自身免疫及肿瘤等疾病中发挥重要作用。随着分子免疫学研究的不断发展,对T淋巴细胞免疫分子机制的阐释,大量T细胞表位信息以及功能基因组学资料的积累,使得基于数据驱动的预测T细胞表位的研究受到重视,可能成为疫苗研发的重要工具之一。本文概述辅助T细胞表位预测的理论和方法及其在寄生虫疫苗研发中的应用,并讨论未来的研究方向。

Abstract: Cellular immunity plays an important role in defense against diseases, such as pathogenic infection,autoimmunity and tumor. With the progress of molecular immunology, mechanisms of T cellular immunity, and the T cell epitopes and functional genomics, studies on the prediction based on data-drived for T cell epitopes has been highlighted, and could be one of the useful tools for application in vaccine development. This review summarizes theory and method-ology of prediction for helper T cell epitopes, and their application in vaccine development against parasites, and new research directions are also discussed.

Key words: Helper T cell, Epitope prediction, Vaccine, Parasite
