Additionnal Information
QS-21 (QS-21-Api; Stimulon) is a natural saponin vaccine adjuvant derived from Quillaja saponaria bark that enhances both Th2 humoral and Th1 cell-mediated immune responses by acting on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and T cells. It activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to caspase-1-dependent release of IL-1β and IL-18 cytokines, which are critical for Th1 immunity and control of intracellular pathogens.

Chemical Information

qs-21-apiose isomer

QS-21 is an investigational adjuvant, which is a substance added to vaccines and other immunotherapies that is designed to enhance the body’s immune response to the antigen contained within the treatment. It is the leading member of the Stimulon family of adjuvants. As a vaccine additive, it is currently being evaluated in clinical trials in a variety of disease areas by Antigenics.
