pubmed:abstractText |
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major causative agent of parenterally transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis. The genomic region encoding the virion-associated core protein is relatively conserved among HCV strains. To generate a DNA vaccine capable of expressing the HCV core protein, the genomic region encoding amino acid residues 1 to 191 of the HCV-1 strain was amplified and cloned into an eukaryotic expression vector. Intramuscular inoculation of recombinant plasmid DNA into BALB/c mice (H-2d) generated core-specific antibody responses, lymphoproliferative responses, and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity. Our results suggest that the HCV core polynucleotide warrants further investigation as a potential vaccine against HCV infection.
