Benzothiazole derivatives target oligoadenylate synthetase and enhance RSV vaccine efficacy as adjuvants

2′,5’ oligoadenylate (2-5A) activates RNase L to degrade intracellular RNA and inhibit viral proliferation. The resulting nucleotide fragments bind RIG-I-like receptors to initiate type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling, enhancing maturation of antigen processing cells to trigger ad...
