Heroin-HIV-1 (H2) vaccine: induction of dual immunologic effects with a heroin hapten-conjugate and an HIV-1 envelope V2 peptide with liposomal lipid A as an adjuvant

Drug addiction: Dual-use vaccine shows promise for heroin and HIV A vaccine designed to treat heroin addiction while at the same time preventing HIV infection elicited strong immune responses in mice. Scientists from the US government led by Carl Alving from the Walter Reed Army Institute of Researc...
