Genetic immunisation by liver stage antigen 3 protects chimpanzees against malaria despite low immune responses.
BACKGROUND: The true interest of genetic immunisation might have been hastily underestimated based on overall immunogenicity data in humans and lack of parallelism with other, more classical immunisation methods. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using malaria Liver Stage Antigen-3 (LSA-3), we report that genetic...
