Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
We successfully generated an HCV-prototype vaccine based on HBV capsid-like particles presenting mimotopes of the HCV E2-envelope protein. These HCV-CLPs were highly immunogenic in mice and the induced antibodies had great potential in cross-neutralizing different HCV strains including patient isolates. This prototype vaccine now permits the analysis of adoptive immune transfer in HCV-related liver transplantation.
