Abstract: However, supplementation of the antigen with
E112K or rLTB resulted in a substantial stimulation of the serum IgG level and in induction of a strong S-IgA response in the nasal cavity.
Abstract: Mice were immunized intranasally (i.n.) with influenza virus subunit antigen, consisting mostly of the isolated surface glycoprotein
hemagglutinin (
HA), supplemented with either recombinant LTB (rLTB), a nontoxic LT mutant (
E112K, with a
Glu112-->Lys substitution in the A subunit), or LT holotoxin, and the induction of systemic IgG and local S-IgA responses was evaluated by direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
