The Monoclonal Antibody against the Major Diagnostic Antigen of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Mediates Immune Protection in Infected BALB/c Mice Challenged Intratracheally with the Fungus

The protective role of specific antibodies against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is controversial. In the present study, we analyzed the effects of monoclonal antibodies on the major diagnostic antigen (gp43) using in vitro and in vivo P. brasiliensis infection models. The passive administration of...
