Abstract

The analysis of the properties of a quadrivalent peroral vaccine against the cervical cancer, which was created in a plant expression system on the base of transgenic tomato fruits, by immunoassay and Western blot hybridization showed that the antibodies against human papilloma virus 16 L1 (HPV16 L1) actively interacted not only with the antigenic proteins HPV18 L1, HPV31 L1, and HPV45 L1, but also with the antigenic protein HPV6 L1, which belongs to another HPV family. Thus, new data on the possibility of crossreactivity between antibodies and antigens belonging to remote HPV families were obtained.
