Enhanced resistance to CVB3-induced acute myocarditis by oral immunization with VP1 IBs. Myocarditis severity was determined 7 days post-viral infection. a Body weight loss. b Cardiac function was detected by echocardiography using a 2-dimensional guided M-mode ultrasound system for each group. c Representative myocardial histopathological observation. d Myocardial histopathological scores. e The survival rate of mice was observed for 28 days following a lethal dose of CVB3 infection. **P < 0.01
