摘要: Mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and the peptide binding C-terminal portion of HSP70 (amino acids 359-610; HSP70c) exert an adjuvant effect when used in vaccines. To enhance immunogenicity a DNA vaccine against porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), recombinant plasmids encoding PCV2 ORF2 (capsid) gene fused to full length hsp70 (pCA-TCH) or truncated hsp70c (pCA-TCHc) were constructed. Immunisation mice with pCA-TCHc induced higher serum immunoglobulin G antibody levels, stronger T helper 1 immune responses lower viral titres following challenge than immunisation pCA-TCH Cap only.
