Recombinant H. pylori catalase plus CT was used for immunization, and groups of mice were challenged with the Sydney strain of H. pylori. Immunization with recombinant catalase protected a significant proportion (9 of 10) of the mice from H. pylori challenge, indicating that this enzyme should be considered as a candidate for a future vaccine (Radcliff et al., 1997).
Significant protection against H. pylori colonisation was induced with rSOD, rKatA and rTpx individually (Stent et al., 2012).
