Host Response |
Mouse Response
- Vaccine Immune Response Type: VO_0003057
- Efficacy: Mice immunized with three doses of pDIP/PyCSP.1 and challenged with 5 × 105 P. yoelii sporozoites had a significant reduction in liver stage infection compared with mice immunized with the empty plasmid. Most importantly, 9 of 16 mice were protected against challenge (Hoffman et al., 1994).
