Host Response |
Mouse Response
- Vaccine Immune Response Type: VO_0000286
- Efficacy: The number of lung metastatic nodules three weeks after inoculation of F10-MUC1-C8 cells was significantly lower in mice immunized with pCEP4-MUC1 DNA vaccine 3 times at weekly intervals than in mice immunized with the vector DNA alone or with a single immunization of the DNA vaccine (Kamata et al., 2002).
