About PIKA recombinant COVID-19 Vaccine
Empowered by PIKA immunomodulating technology, PIKA recombinant COVID-19 vaccine is combination of the PIKA adjuvant and the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) subunit protein. The antigen component of this candidate vaccine is based on the recombinant SARS-CoV-2 spike protein subunit with a stable prefusion S trimeric protein structure. PIKA adjuvant isa synthetic chemical analogue of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) acting as a TLR3 agonist, which elicits both Th1 and Th2immune responses. PIKA adjuvant is able to promote the activation and maturation of dendritic cells, upregulate theco-stimulatory molecules on dendritic cells and induce the activation and proliferation of both B and NK cells.
