Newborn Mice Vaccination with BCG.HIVA222 + MVA.HIVA Enhances HIV-1-Specific Immune Responses: Influence of Age and Immunization Routes

Figure 5

Body weight curve after newborn mice vaccination with BCG.HIVA222 (SC) and MVA.HIVA (IM). (a) Newborn mice were either left immunized or immunized with  cfu of BCG wild type or BCG.HIVA222 by subcutaneous route and subsequently given a booster dose of 106 pfu of MVA.HIVA as indicated in panel A. (b and c) The body weight was weekly recorded, and the body weight mean (± SEM) for each group of mice ( per group) is shown. Two different scales are shown so that the full evolution of the body weight is seen (b), and the y-axes zoomed to the 15–25 g interval, so that the group differences are better seen (c).
