Intracytoplasmic delivery of listeriolysin O by a vaccinal strain of Bacillus anthracis induces CD8-mediated protection against Listeria monocytogenes.Journal of immunology, 159 9
This report summarizes the recent investigations on the use of Bacillus anthracis as a live vector for delivery of antigens. Recombinant strains were constructed by engineering the current live Sterne vaccine. This vaccine, used to prevent anthrax in cattle, causes side‐effects due to anthrax toxin activities. Bacteria producing a genetically detoxified toxin factor were devoid of lethal effects and were as protective as the Sterne strain against experimental anthrax. Moreover, B. anthracis expressing a foreign antigen controlled by an in vivo inducible promoter were able to generate either antibody or cellular protective responses against heterologous diseases.
