Abstract excerpt
In this study, the adjuvanticity of 2 nontoxic derivatives (LTK63 and LTR72) of heat-labile enterotoxin of Escherichia coli (LT) was evaluated and was compared with that of a cytosine phosphodiester-guanine (CpG) motif, after transcutaneous immunization with tetanus toxoid (TT). TT plus LTR72 elicited the strongest antibody responses, compared with those elicited by the other vaccines (TT, TT plus LTK63, TT plus...
