2022 |
Passive infusion of antibodies purified from mice immunized with gH/gL 60 mer nanoparticle 500 mg of total IgG per mouse i.p. 48 h pre EBV challenge |
B95-8 | Purified antibodies from immunized mice protected humanized mice from lethal EBV challenge | 86 |
αDEC-205-EBNA-1 C-terminus of EBNA-1 fused with DEC-205 (a human endocytic receptor), None there is no challenge experiment. i.p. intraperitoneally, DCs dendritic cells. EBV-LPD EBV-associated lymphoproliferative diseases.
Ahumanized mice reconstituted with cells from an EBV-seropositive donor was used in this study.
