Host Response

Mouse Response

  • Vaccine Immune Response Type: VO_0000286
  • Efficacy: Mice were completely protected from challenge with mouse adapted EBOV with a priming dose of 0.5 microgram of GP DNA followed by three or four subsequent vaccinations with 1.5 micrograms of DNA. Partial protection could be observed for at least 9 months after three immunizations with 0.5 microgram of the GP DNA vaccine (Vanderzanden et al., 1998).
