Protection against H1, H5, H6 and H9 influenza A infection with liposomal matrix 2 epitope vaccines.
description:
This peptide corresponds to the first 24 residues of matrix protein 2 as found in several strains of the H5N1 subtype of Influenza A virus.
A significant reduction in viral titers in the lungs is seen5 days after challenge with 10 LD50, in mice immunized with this peptide as a fusion protein with a proprietary hydrophobic domain (HD) encapsulated in liposomes, as compared with the response obtained in mice immunized with control liposomes without fusion protein.
