Abstract
<p>(A) IFN-γ responses of splenocytes from intranasally infected mice were measured in response to 3 VACV-specific CD8 T cell peptides (1 µg/ml) in an Elispot assay. Assays were performed using triplicate wells for each condition and individual mice/group. * = no responses detected. Seven days post infection, (B) splenocytes and (C) lung lymphocytes were isolated and CTL assays were carried out using RMA cells infected with VACV-WR (moi = 5), vGK5 (moi = 5) at different effector to target (E/T) ratios. Data shown are 1of 2 experiments performed. (D) PRNT50 antibody titers were measured in the sera of mice immunized 5 months prior with varying doses of vGK5 or 10<sup>3.5</sup> PFU of VACV-WR (n = 5/group).</p
