Synthetic peptides are small, custom-designed chains of amino acids that mimic specific portions of a pathogen’s proteins. These peptides can stimulate an immune response without introducing the full pathogen, making them a safer and more controlled option for vaccine development. In peptide-based vaccines, the immune system recognizes these synthetic peptides as foreign, triggering an immune response that includes the production of antibodies and activation of T-cells. This approach allows for highly targeted immunity against specific pathogens or diseases. Peptide vaccines are particularly advantageous in cancer immunotherapy, where they can be designed to recognize and attack cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. They are also effective against infectious diseases, as they can be tailored to target specific strains or variants of a pathogen, ensuring broad and potent protection.
