Resumo

A imunoterapia alérgeno-específica é o único tratamento capaz de alterar o curso natural da doença alérgica. Ensaios clínicos mostram que a imunoterapia é segura e eficaz para muitos pacientes. No entanto, ainda enfrenta problemas relacionados à eficácia, segurança, longa duração do tratamento e baixa adesão dos pacientes. Neste contexto, tem havido intensa pesquisa no desenvolvimento de adjuvantes com objetivo de aumentar a segurança, otimizar os esquemas de tratamento e melhorar a adesão dos pacientes. Alérgenos foram modificados (glicoconjugados) com carboidratos derivados de Saccharomyces cerevisae para aumentar sua captação e apresentação através dos receptores de carboidratos presentes nas células dendríticas, beneficiando-se da capacidade de atuarem na indução de tolerância para iniciar respostas imunes. À luz de novas evidências, essas células constituem alvo terapêutico chave para se obter uma resposta adequada à imunoterapia alérgeno-específica, com potencial de contribuição na inovação do campo da Imunoterapia.

Abstract

Allergen-specific immunotherapy is the only treatment capable of altering the natural course of allergic disease. Clinical trials have shown that immunotherapy is safe and effective for many patients. However, it still faces problems related to efficacy, safety, long treatment duration and poor patient compliance. In this context, there has been intense research into the development of adjuvant treatments that increase safety, optimize treatment regimens, and improve patient compliance. Allergens were modified (glycoconjugated) with carbohydrates derived from Saccharomyces cerevisae to increase their uptake and presentation through carbohydrate receptors in dendritic cells, benefiting from their ability to induce tolerance and initiate immune response. In light of the new evidence, these cells are a key therapeutic target for adequate response to allergenspecific immunotherapy and can drive innovation in the field of immunotherapy.

Keywords
