Abstract

See full text

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion protein-specific T-cell epitopes as peptide-based vaccines are disclosed. The isolated peptide contains a human HLA restricted CD8+ T-cell epitope that is specific to RSV F protein. The length of the peptide is no more than 9 or 10 amino acid residues. The peptide may be employed as an immunogen to stimulate cytotoxic T cells, indirectly activate helper T cells type 1, and cause release of cytokines from T cells.
