Research Abstract |
In order to investigate the differences in the immune responsesamong several mucosal immunizations, mice were immunized with phosphorylcholine (PC) together with cholera toxin (CT) as mucosal adjuvant intranasally and transcutaneously, and the mucosal as well as systemic immune responses were compared. PC-specific IgA antibody titers in saliva and nasal wash were increased by intaranasal as well as transcutaneous immunization to the same levels.
