RESUMO

Control of a viral infection in vivo requires a rapid and efficient cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte response. We demonstrate that lentivirus-mediated introduction of antigen in dendritic cells confers a protective antiviral immunity in vivo in a lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus model. Therefore, lentiviral vectors may be excellent vaccine candidates for viral infections.
