Journal of Virology, 1995•Am Soc MicrobiolDNA vaccination has been evaluated with the lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV)
model system. Plasmid DNA encoding the LCMV nucleoprotein, when injected
intramuscularly, induces both antiviral antibodies and cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Injection of
DNA encoding the nucleoprotein or the viral glycoprotein confers protection against
normally lethal LCMV challenge in a major histocompatibility complex-dependent manner.
The protection conferred is incomplete, but it is most probably mediated by the induced …
