P1A cDNA | 100 ng IL-12 | Mean P1A-specific lysis (%)b | Range of lysis (%) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
A | Days 0 and 7 | None | 39 | 36–47 |
B | Days 0 and 7 | Day 0 | 10 | 6–19 |
C | Days 0 and 7 | Day −1 | 4 | 2–17 |
D | Days 0 and 7 | Day 1 | 23 | 10–37 |

P1A cDNA was administered by gene gun as described. 100 ng IL-12 was given s.c. at indicated times. Seven days after the last vaccination, splenocytes were restimulated in vitro as described and measured for P1A-specific CTL response.
Mean P1A-specific lysis for 5 mice (groups A–E) or 3 mice (groups F–H).
