Immunogenicity and protection conferred by a recombinant Mycobacterium marinum vaccine against Buruli ulcer

2016-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium ulcerans (MU) infection causes the disfiguring necrotic skin disease, Buruli ulcer (BU). While vaccination with Mycobacterium bovis BCG provides nominal antigenic cross-reactivity for induction of immunity against experimental MU infection, a mycobacterial species with greater genetic homology to Mycobacterium ulcerans may serve as a richer source of cross-protective immunogens and lack the pathologi...
