Mimotope-based vaccines of Leishmania infantum antigens and their protective efficacy against visceral leishmaniasis.
BACKGROUND: The development of cost-effective prophylactic strategies to prevent leishmaniasis has become a high-priority. The present study has used the phage display technology to identify new immunogens, which were evaluated as vaccines in the murine model of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Epitope-...
