The present invention is related to the fields of molecular biology, virology, immunology and medicine. The invention provides a composition comprising an ordered and repetitive antigen array, wherein the antigen is an IL-1 mutein. More specifically, the invention provides a composition comprising a virus-like particle, and at least one IL-1 mutein linked thereto. The invention also provides a process for producing the composition. The compositions of the invention are useful in the production of vaccines for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, and chronic autoimmune diseases, genetic diseases and cardiovascular diseases. The composition of the invention efficiently induces immune responses, in particular antibody responses. Furthermore, the compositions of the invention are particularly useful to efficiently induce self-specific immune responses within the indicated context.

La présente invention concerne les domaines de la biologie moléculaire, de la virologie, de l'immunologie et de la médecine. L'invention concerne plus précisément une composition comprenant un jeu d'antigènes ordonné et répétitif, ledit antigène étant une lutéine d'IL-1. Plus particulièrement, l'invention permet d'obtenir une composition qui comprend une particule de type viral et au moins une mutéine d'IL-1 qui y est liée. L'invention concerne aussi une méthode pour produire la composition. Les compositions de l'invention sont utiles pour produire des vaccins permettant de traiter des maladies inflammatoires et des maladies auto-immunes chroniques, des maladies génétiques et des maladies cardio-vasculaires. La composition de l'invention induit efficacement des réponses immunitaires, en particulier des réponses d'anticorps. En outre, les compositions de l'invention sont particulièrement utiles pour efficacement induire des réponses immunitaires auto-spécifiques dans le contexte indiqué.
