Research Abstract |
We have developed a new technology to enhance immune responses by generating complex which composed DNA-binding protein fused vaccine antigen and DNA (DBP-Ag/DNA). In this system, DNA was used as scaffold material, not genetic information. Vaccine efficacy of the DBP-Ag/DNA complex was evaluated using an ookinete surface protein of Plasmodium vivax, Pvs25. The DBP-Ag/DNA complex immunized mice were conferred a high immune response compared to Pvs25 alone immunized group. This system may be a promising approach for development of subunit vaccines against malaria.
