Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of type I transmembrane receptors and are the central component of the innate immune system. Recently we have synthesized a functionalized 8-oxoadenine derivative, that has been reported as a ligand for TLR 7 receptor that can modulate the immune response. Conjugate with immunogenic peptides, presents potential applications in immunotherapy in the development of allergy vaccines.
Un grupo del IIQ participa en el seno la red ARADyAL en el desarrollo de un compuesto que protege e induce tolerancia frente a la alergia al melocotón.
Los ganadores ex aequo son Dongling Geng (ICMS) y José Alberto Carmona (IIQ)
Entre otros méritos, se le concede por su aportación continuada al premio de investigación cicCartuja.
Se trata de un premio anual internacional para premiar a científicos con un futuro prometedor.
