T cell epitope content comparison using EpiCC correlates with vaccine efficacy against heterologous porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type 2 strains by J. Mark Hammer, Andres H. Gutierrez, Lucas Huntimer, Benjamin Gabriel, William D. Martin, Sabine E. Hammer, Tobias Käser, Anne S. De Groot

“…While vaccines are available, they are not entirely effective, and the introduction of modified live virus vaccines (MLV) has contributed to an increase in the rate of viral evolution. While vaccines induce humoral responses that may contribute to immunity against PRRSV, vaccines containing T cell epitopes that are well-matched to circulating strains are believed to be more likely to induce protective effects upon challenge or field exposure. …”
