The use of hybrid virus‐like particles to enhance the immunogenicity of a broadly protective HPV vaccine
11 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
Virus-like particles (VLPs) can serve as a highly immunogenic vaccine platform for the multivalent display of epitopes from pathogens. We have used bacteriophage VLPs to develop vaccines that target a highly conserved epitope from the human papillomavirus (HPV) minor capsid protein, L2.VLPs displaying an L2-peptide from HPV16 elicit antibodies that broadly neutralize infection by HPV types associated with the...
