Abstract: The present invention addresses the issue of providing a norovirus component vaccine for subcutaneous, intradermal, percutaneous, or intramuscular administration which vaccine can readily immunize the target cells, an associated product of a molecular needle serving as an active ingredient of the vaccine, and a production method for the associated product. The invention provides a norovirus component vaccine containing, as an active ingredient, an associated product including a hexamer formed through bonding of two molecules of a trimer of a molecular needle represented by the following formula (1). W-L1-Xn—Y (1) [wherein W represents an amino acid sequence of P domain of the capsid protein of norovirus as an immunogen; L1 represents a first linker sequence having 0 to 100 amino acids; X represents an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1; Y represents an amino acid sequence of a cell introduction domain; n is an integer of 1 to 3].

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to elucidate a relationship between deregulation of signaling by CD22 and a rapid response of B cells by IgG-BCR and the like, and to provide a method capable of inducing a rapid immune response and defending against infection instead of vaccine. The present invention relates to a method for promoting an immune response causing such a strong proliferation of clones and production of a large amount of antibody-producing cells as those seen in the memory immune response even in the naive B cells expressing IgM-BCR and IgD-BCR by inhibiting the CD22 function in B cells; and to a method for screening a substance capable of promoting the immune response based on a change in the CD22 function in B cells.
