RIBI-529
RIBI-529 (RC-529) is a fully synthetic, low-toxicity TLR4 agonist vaccine adjuvant. RIBI-529 upregulates cell surface co-stimulatory molecules, receptors, cytokines and chemokines, and activates the innate immune system. RIBI-529 enhances short-term CD4+ T cell clonal expansion, division, and ex vivo survival under growth factor withdrawal conditions. RIBI-529 enhances humoral and cell-mediated adaptive immune responses, induces non-specific resistance against viral and bacterial pathogens, and skews responses toward a Th1 type, accompanied by Th2 responses.

Biological Activity
RIBI-529 (6.25-100 µg; s.c.; two doses) enhances humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to HBsAg in BALB/c mice, with peak antibody titers observed at 25 µg and robust CTL activity at 10 µg, shifting the immune response toward complement-fixing IgG2a antibodies[2].
RIBI-529 (1-100 μg; i.v.; single injection) triggers comparable levels of IP-10 and MCP-1 chemokine production in naive mice[1].
RIBI-529 (10 μg; i.v.; two administrations: co-administered with OvaP) promotes CD4+ T cell differentiation into IFN-γ-producing Th1 cells[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model:B10.D2/nSnAi mice (specific pathogen-free)[1]
-
Dosage:1 μg, 3 μg, 10 μg, 30 μg, 100 μg
-
Administration:i.v.; single co-administration with OvaP
-
Result:Enhanced clonal expansion of CD4+/DO-11.10+ T cells to similar extents as LPS (HY-D1056) and MPL (HY-130320) at higher doses, with peak fold increases of 2-15 times above OvaP alone.
Increased the average number of CD4+/DO-11.10+ T cell divisions by 1-1.5 compared with OvaP alone, corresponding to a 4-12-fold increase in T cell yield.
Enhanced survival of activated CD4+/DO-11.10+ T cells during ex vivo growth factor withdrawal, resulting in ~20% cell viability after 20 hours of culture, compared with ~15% viability with OvaP alone.

Animal Model:B10.D2/nSnAi mice (specific pathogen-free)[1]
-
Dosage:30 μg (SAA testing); 1 μg, 3 μg, 10 μg, 30 μg, 100 μg (cytokine/chemokine testing)
-
Administration:i.v.; single injection (SAA testing); i.v.; single injection alone (cytokine/chemokine testing)
-
Result:Caused a 199-fold increase in serum SAA levels compared with vehicle control, and LPS is 50-fold more toxic than RIBI-529 when normalized to administered dose.
Resulted in an increase of 1000-1800 pg/mL IP-10 and 600-1000 pg/mL MCP-1 in serum, similar to levels induced by LPS and MPL.

Animal Model:B10.D2/nSnAi mice (specific pathogen-free)[1]
-
Dosage:10 μg
-
Administration:i.v.; two administrations: Day 0 and Day 21; co-administered with OvaP
-
Result:Resulted in a nearly twofold increase in the percentage of CD4+/DO-11.10+ T cells producing IFN-γ following recall challenge, compared with OvaP alone.
Induced a twofold increase in the total number of CD4+/DO-11.10+ T cells recovered post-challenge, compared with a 62-fold increase induced by 15 μg LPS.
-
Animal Model:BALB/c mice[2]
-
Dosage:6.25 µg (humoral response); 25 µg (peak antibody titers); 100 µg (humoral response); 10 µg (CTL activity)
-
Administration:s.c.; two doses
-
Result:Achieved total IgG end-point titer of 1,024,000, IgG1 end-point titer of 256,000, and IgG2a end-point titer of 1,024,000 at 6.25 µg.
Achieved total IgG end-point titer of 2,048,000, IgG1 end-point titer of 256,000, and IgG2a end-point titer of 2,048,000 at 25 µg.
Achieved total IgG end-point titer of 512,000, IgG1 end-point titer of 512,000, and IgG2a end-point titer of 256,000 at 100 µg.
Exhibited CTL specific killing of 78% at 50:1 effector:target ratio, 74% at 25:1, 52% at 12.5:1, and 29% at 6.25:1 at 10 µg.
