V. CHOLERAE HYPEREXPRESSING RECOMBINANT CHOLERA TOXIN B SUBUNIT SHOWING DUAL IMMUNOGENICITY

摘要

Oral immunogenic compositions imparting dual protection against enterotoxigenic labile toxin (LT)-expressing Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Vibrio cholerae based on the delivery of recombinant cholera toxin B antigen by attenuated, live bacterial vectors derived from Vibrio cholerae are disclosed. The compositions exhibit dual immunogenicity and retain the ability to colonize gastrointestinal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues.
