Abstract

ABSTRACTThe effect of low-dose antigen exposure on the development of immunity to Helicobacter pyloriinfection was studied in outbred mice. Animals that were primed with a subinfectious number ofH. pyloribacteria exhibited significantly lower bacterial loads after challenge with an infectious dose of pathogen (versus controls, P< 0.05).
