Rational Design of DNA Vaccines for the Induction of Human Papillomavirus Type 16 E6- and E7-Specific Cytotoxic T-Cell Responses
13 Sept 2012
Abstract excerpt
Many DNA vaccine candidates have been developed for the treatment of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16)-induced malignancies. Most of these vaccines consist of a fusion of E7 with a "carrier-protein" that functions to increase the potency of the vaccine. The nature of these carrier-proteins varies widely, and the mechanisms proposed to explain the enhanced immunogenicity of such fusions are often linked to the...
