Abstract

This work describes the nature and strength of the immune response induced by various Toll-like receptor ligands and their ability to act as vaccine adjuvants. It reviews the various ligands capable of triggering individual TLRs, and then focuses on the efficacy and safety of those agents for which clinical results are available.
