Elicitation of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-Specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes in Mucosal Compartments of Rhesus Monkeys by Systemic Vaccination
19 Oct 2002
Abstract excerpt
Since most human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections are initiated following mucosal exposure to the virus, the anatomic containment or abortion of an HIV infection is likely to require vaccine-elicited cellular immune responses in those mucosal sites. Studying vaccine-elicited mucosal immune responses has been problematic because of the difficulties associated with sampling T lymphocytes from those anatomic...
