A Lipid Core Peptide Construct Containing a Conserved Region Determinant of the Group A Streptococcal M Protein Elicits Heterologous Opsonic Antibodies
1 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
The study reported here investigated the immunogenicity and protective potential of a lipid core peptide (LCP) construct containing a conserved region determinant of M protein, defined as peptide J8. Parenteral immunization of mice with LCP-J8 led to the induction of high-titer serum immunoglobulin G J8-specific antibodies when the construct was coadministered with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) or administered...
