<italic toggle="yes">Lactobacillus</italic> Mucosal Vaccine Vectors: Immune Responses against Bacterial and Viral Antigens

ABSTRACT Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been utilized since the 1990s for therapeutic heterologous gene expression. The ability of LAB to elicit an immune response against expressed foreign antigens has led to their exploration as potential mucosal vaccine candidates. LAB vaccine vectors offer many...
