Provided herein are lipid A molecules engineered from Moritella lipopolysaccharides and uses thereof.

The present invention provides methods of hypo-acylated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for improving anti-oxidation and preventing/treating endotoxemia and diseases associated with endotoxemia.

The present invention provides methods of hypo-acylated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for improving anti-oxidation and preventing/treating endotoxemia and diseases associated with endotoxemia.

Provided herein are PEGylated liposomes, and methods of making and using thereof. The PEGylated liposomes comprise at least a cholesterol, a non-PEGylated neutral lipid, and a PEGylated lipid, wherein the average molecular weight of the PEG component in the PEGylated lipid is about 5000 Daltons or less. The PEGylated liposomes are stable and capable of delivery of an agent for the generation of an immune response, for example an agent for vaccine, therapeutic, or diagnostic uses. Compositions and methods related to making the PEGylated liposomes and using the PEGylated liposomes for stimulating an immune response are also provided.

Provided herein are imidazopyrimidine compounds, such as compounds of Formula (I), for use in enhancing human immune response and/or as adjuvants in vaccines. ##STR00001##

Provided herein are imidazopyrimidine compounds, such as compounds of Formula (I), for use in enhancing human immune response and/or as adjuvants in vaccines. ##STR00001##

Provided herein are Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) agonists for use in enhancing human immune response and/or as adjuvants in vaccines. The TLR2 agonists include thiophenes, imidazoles, or phenyl-containing compounds, which may be compounds of Formulae (I), (II), (III), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, prodrugs, and compositions thereof. The compounds described herein are used as enhancers of an immune response (e.g., innate and/or adaptive immune response), and are useful in treating and/or preventing a disease, as adjuvants in a vaccine for the disease, (e.g., proliferative disease, inflammatory disease, autoimmune disease, infectious disease, or chronic disease). Also provided in the present disclosure are pharmaceutical compositions, kits, methods, and uses including or using a compound described herein.
