Liposome for induction of cell-mediated immunity

Abstract

Disclosed is a liposome which includes an antigenic substance therein and has, on its surface, a peptide containing several contiguous arginine residues. The liposome enables an antigen-presenting cell to achieve the selective antigen presentation through an MHC Class-I molecule, and can induce a cell-mediated immunity specifically. The liposome can also induce the antigen presentation by a matured dendritic cell.
