  1. Development of a novel T cell‐oriented vaccine using CTL/Th‐hybrid epitope long peptide and biodegradable microparticles, against an intracellular bacterium

    • Microbiology and Immunology

    • Antigen‐specific CD8+ T‐lymphocytes (cytotoxic T‐lymphocytes: CTL), as well as CD4+ T‐lymphocytes (helper T‐lymphocytes: Th), simultaneously play an important role in elimination of intracellular bacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Listeria monocytogenes. Administration of T‐cell epitope short peptide needs large numbers of peptides for effective vaccination due to its easily degradable nature in vivo.
