Modulation of immune responses to bovine herpesvirus‐1 in cattle by immunization with a DNA vaccine encoding glycoprotein D as a fusion protein with bovine CD154
14 May 2004
Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to determine whether a DNA vaccine encoding bovine CD154 linked to a truncated version of bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) glycoprotein D (tgD-CD154) induces enhanced tgD-specific immune responses in cattle. In vitro characterization demonstrated that tgD and tgD-CD154 both bind to cultured bovine B cells, whereas only tgD-CD154 induces interleukin-4-dependent proliferation, suggesting...
