Recombinant BCG expressing the LTAK63 adjuvant induces increased early and long-term immune responses against Mycobacteria

The development of more effective vaccines against Mycobacterium tuberculosis has become a world priority. Previously, we have shown that a recombinant BCG expressing the LTAK63 adjuvant (rBCG-LTAK63) displayed higher protection than BCG against tuberculosis challenge in mice. In order to elucidate...
