<p>The invention provides methods and compositions useful for inducing or enhancing an immune response in a human or non-human animal. In an embodiment, the method involves administering an antigen-presenting cell chemotaxin, such as a chemokine polypeptide or variant thereof, optionally with administration of an antigen. In some embodiments, the chemokine or variant is chemotactic for dendritic cells and/or macrophages, but not chemotactic for one or more of neutrophils, T-lymphocytes, monocytes, or eosinophils. In an embodiment, the chemokine or variant is a chemotaxin for immature but not mature dendritic cells.</p> |
