Improved survival of female versus male mice challenged with Ft LVS following iFt vaccination. C57BL/6Tac male and female mice were immunized i.n. with either 20 μl of vehicle (PBS), 20 μl of PBS containing 1500 ng of iFt on day 0 and were then boosted with the same iFt preparations on day 21. Mice were then challenged i.n. on day 35 with 4 × LD50 (A and B) or 10 × LD50 (C and D) Ft LVS, and subsequently monitored for 25 days for survival. The mice were also weighed at the indicated times post-infection to monitor the progression of infection (B and D). The survival data represent combined data from two independent experiments (a combined total of 12–16 mice/group).
