Early dendritic cell molecular signature modelling predicts late vaccine-induced adaptive T-cell responses (Codelink)

Mice were vaccinated with AP205 bacteriophage based VLP vector-plaform or PBS. Transcriptomes of dendritic cells 6 hours after vaccination were used to build a model predictive of the vector-platform efficacy measured as the antigen-specific response 5, 7 and 10 days after the vaccination Groups of 7-week-old female C57BL/6 mice (Charles River, France and Germany) were immunized either intravenously or sub-cutaneously with a controlled quantity of vector particles as defined in CompuVac assay protocols (www.compuvac.eu). Control mice were injected with 100 µL of phosphate buffered saline solution (PBS).
