Coadministration of DNA Encoding Interleukin-6 and Hemagglutinin Confers Protection from Influenza Virus Challenge in Mice
1 Feb 1998
Abstract excerpt
This study was conducted to investigate whether Accell gene gun coadministration of DNA encoding human interleukin-6 (IL-6) would enhance protective immune responses in mice to an equine influenza A virus hemagglutinin (HA) DNA vaccine. Mice that received HA DNA alone exhibited accelerated clearance of homologous challenge virus but were not protected from infection. In contrast, mice that received both HA and...
