ABSTRACT:
A method of preventing or inhibiting infection by a parasite or virus in vivo comprising administering to a human in need thereof a parasite or virus mitogen, such as a eukaryotic amino acid racemase, in a sub-mitogenic amount sufficient to induce a protective immune response against the parasite or virus in the human.
