A first aspect of the invention relates to a conjugate including mannan and at least one epitope comprising a peptide fragment of a protein selected from myelin basic protein (MBP), myelin oligodentrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) and proteolipid protein (PLP), said peptide fragment being in linear or cyclic form; and wherein said epitope is linked to mannan via a [(Lys-Gly)n] bridge, where n is an integer from 1 to 10. Further aspects of the invention relate to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said conjugates, and their use in the preparation of a medicament for treating an immune disorder. |
