1 14505924 The L.E.A.P.S. heteroconjugate vaccine antigen (JgD), composed of a T cell epitope from glycoprotein D (gD(8-23)) of herpes simplex virus (HSV) linked with a peptide sequence from beta-2-microglobulin (aa38-50), elicited protection against lethal intraperitoneal (IP) challenge and prevented disease signs in most, and limited disease progression, for the rest of BALB/c mice challenged in the epidermal abrasion-zosteriform spread mouse infection model.
2 15569635 The J TCBL/ICBL is a peptide from beta-2-microglobulin which binds to the CD8 protein and promotes Th1 responses and the G TCBL/ICBL is a peptide from the beta chain of MHC II molecules that binds to the CD4 protein and promotes Th2 responses.
3 15843575 Immunization and challenge studies with beta(2)-microglobulin(-/-) mice indicated that the reduction of lung Cpn burdens was mediated by the MHC class I-dependent CD8(+) T cells to minigene-included Cpn CTL epitopes, rather than by pan-DR epitope-specific CD4(+) T cells.
4 16159698 The results showed that beta-actin, 28S rRNA, 18S rRNA and GAPDH were the most constantly expressed genes, while TBP and beta-2-microglobulin were markedly induced during the infection course.
