FIGURE 5.
Evaluation of the effect of the adhesive tape-stripping (ATS) procedure on CTL responses induced by TCI. C57BL/6 mice (3 mice per group) were immunized with TCI using OVAp (100 μmol) and imiquimod with (OVAp/Iq + ATS) or without ATS (OVAp/Iq) pretreatment. Six days later, pooled cells of spleens and draining lymph nodes from immunized mice were subjected to IFN-γ ELISPOT assay. TCI using OVAp without imiquimod with ATS (OVAp/ATS) and s.c. vaccine (OVAp/IFA, CpG) were included as controls.
