(BCG) as a general immunostimulant and its introduction into clinical practice as a treatment for superficial bladder tumours (Morales et al, 1976; Brosman and Lamm, 1990; Soloway and Perry, 1987; Khanna et al, 1990) has resulted in a number of studies of the mode of action of this ...
rin (BCG) vaccine works should be dissected very carefully so that conclusions can progress step by step. De?nitively, an accumulation of small amounts of evidence are needed in order to ask good questions in large clinical trials. The literature on intravesical instillations for the prophylaxis...

The downregulation ofJTY_RS10535(Rv2034) may regulate the expression ofdosRgene and plays a significant role in lipid metabolism and hypoxic adaptation [35]. In addition,Rv2034is one of the in vivo expressed Mtb antigens (IVE-TB), which is considered as the potential TB vaccine candidate an...
In addition, these studies can contribute in the development of a more efficient vaccine against TB. Here, we combine two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) and mass spectrometry to analyse the proteomic profile of culture filtrate proteins (CFPs) from M. bovis BCG Moreau, the Brazilian vaccine ...
