Abstract In order to assess a new strategy of DNA vaccine for a more complete understanding of its action in immune response it is important to determine the in vivo biodistribution fate and antigen expression. In previous studies our group focused on the prophylactic and therapeutic use of a plasmid DNA encoding the Mycobacterium leprae 65-kDa heat shock protein Hsp65 and achieved an efficient immune response induction as well as protection against virulent M. tuberculosis challenge. In the present study we examined in vivo tissue distribution of naked DNA-Hsp65 vaccine the Hsp65
