['The aim of this study was to induce cellular and humoral responses with enhanced breadth and more balanced magnitude as a possible approach for an effective HIV vaccine.', 'All nine of the SIVmac239 genes (gag, pol, env, nef, vif, vpx, vpr, rev and tat) were optimized for mammalian expression, synthesized and cloned into recombinant adenovirus type 5 (Ad5). These vectors were used as a vaccine regimen, and the immunogenicity and immune protection of this regimen was assessed in murine and macaques.', 'A vaccine regimen including all nine genes of the SIVmac239 virus was developed, and it was demonstrated that in contrast to single antigen vaccination, the total SIV antigen regimen more effectively elicited the balanced and broad immune responses in murine and macaques. Moreover, the responses afforded effective immune control against infection and replication of the highly pathogenic SIVmac239.'] Is induction of balance and breadth in the immune response beneficial for the control of SIVmac239 replication in rhesus monkeys?
