Description | The antibody protected mice from encephalitis and death following ocular inoculation with the virus. The mAb (anti-gB) protects against encephalitis even when immunization is delayed until 48 hours post-infection. It significantly reduced the severity of epithelial keratitis and reduced the frequency of persistent viral infection in an inbred mouse model. Murine antibody has been shown to neutralize HSV-1 in vitro without the need for complement. Both humanized and murine versions resulted in a 90% reduction in plaque at an antibody concentration of 7 nM (1 ug/mL). |
