| name: |
Neutralization of measles virus wild-type isolates after immunization with a synthetic peptide vaccine which is not recognized by neutralizing passive antibodies.
|
| description: |
This peptide is conserved in clade A, B3, C2, D3 and D5 measles viruses.
The animals developed anti-epitope antibodies. Similar results were obtained when the immunogen was the epitope, with two linked copies of the peptide Bccc, or with two other T cell epitopes conjugates. The authors conclude that the immunogenic peptide Bccc contains a T cell epitope as well as a B cell epitope. Moreover, the response was not affected by preexisting anti-MV neutralizing antibodies, suggesting it could be used in the presence of anti-MV maternal antibodies.
