Enhancement of Eriobotrya japonica extracts on non-specific immune response and disease resistance in kelp grouper Epinephelus bruneus against Vibrio carchariae

The present study investigated the effect of Eriobotrya japonica extracts at 0%, 0.1%, 1.0%, and 2.0% doses supplementation with feed on non-specific immune response, hematological and biochemical profile, and disease resistance against Vibrio carchariae in kelp grouper Epinephelus bruneus at weeks 1, 2, and 4. The white blood cell (WBC) significantly increased in fish fed with 0.1%, 1.0%, and 2.0% diets on weeks 1 and 2 when compared to the control. However, the glucose always decreased from the control except on week 2 against pathogen. The serum total protein, albumin, and globulin significantly increased at week 2 but they did not changed significantly at weeks 1 and 4. The superoxide anion, lymphokines production index, and phogocytosis did not significantly increased in any diet on the first week whereas it was significantly enhanced in 1.0% and 2.0% supplementation diets on weeks 2 and 4 against V. carchariae when compared to control. All diets significantly enhanced the serum lysozyme activity, bactericidal activity, and haemolytic complement activity from weeks 1-4 as compared to control. The serum agglutinating antibody titre did not significantly enhance on the first week whereas it was significantly enhanced on weeks 2 and 4. Fish fed with 1.0% and 2.0% doses diets was found lower mortality than 0.1% diet. Thus, this study suggested that 1.0% and 2.0% doses supplementation diets could be advocated to enhance the immune response and production disease from V. carchariae in E. bruneus.     

Induction of humoral antibody response by soluble polysaccharide of Cryptococcus neoformans

Mice were immunized with purifiedCryptococcus neoformans soluble polysaccharide, or with the polysaccharide coupled to methylated bovine serum albumin or methylated bovine gamma globulin. The polysaccharide-methylated protein complexes were no more immunogenic than the purified polysaccharide when used without Freund's incomplete adjuvant; however, the methylated protein complexes induced higher levels of antibody than purified polysaccharide when emulsified in the adjuvant. Sera from mice were titrated by passive hemagglutination, and maximum antibody titers were observed 14 to 21 days after immunization. Antibody titers declined rapidly after 14 to 21 days in mice immunized with antigen alone; whereas, animals immunized with cryptococcal antigen emulsified in adjuvant remained at peak levels throughout a six week experimental period. All antigens were immunogenic over a wider dosage range when contained in adjuvant. Individual mice immunized with an adjuvant emulsion of purified polysaccharide varied widely in the amount of antibody produced, with some of the animals producing no detectable antibody.

Immune response of Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus to outer membrane protein of Edwardsiella tarda

The humoral and cellular immune responses of Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, were investigated following intraperitioneal injection with outer membrane protein (OMP) of Edwardsiella tarda in Freund's incomplete adjuvant (FIA). The specific serum antibody titre against OMP of E. tarda were measured using ELISA for 14 weeks, and the total serum antibody concentrations were also determined according to the sandwich ELISA standard model constructed using purified IgM. Both of the specific and total antibodies had an increase and reached their peaks 4 weeks after immunization. Simultaneously, the percentages of sIg + lymphocytes in blood, spleen, pronephros and mesonephros were detected by flow cytometry. It was shown that the percentages of sIg + lymphocytes in all lymphoid organs reached their peak levels 4 weeks after immunization, and then decreased gradually. To investigate the protection against infection, three challenges were performed in the same way at day 14, 30 and 100 after immunization, fish challenged at day 30 showed a higher relative percentage survival (RPS) of 71 compared to the 14-day group (30) and 100-day group (53), which indicated a positive correlation between the survival and the levels of the antibody.     

Specific cross-protective antigonococcal immunity in the murine genital tract

Specific acquired immunity to gonococci was studied in systemically immunized mice, challenged with 10(7) gonococci by intrauterine inoculation. Protection after intraperitoneal immunization was monitored by vaginal cultures taken 24 h post-challenge, since events during the first 24 h postexposure to gonococci are crucial in determining the outcome of infection. Mice were protected against gonococcal challenge by two inoculations with either live or boiled gonococci given 4 weeks apart, whereas immunization with one inoculation did not protect against challenge 1 week later. Protection was correlated with high titers of IgG antibody in serum after two immunizations, but not with the high titers of serum IgM antibody found after the one immunization. IgG antibodies, but not IgM antibodies, were shown to pass into genital secretions. Protection could be passively transferred by serum with high titers of antibody. Of most practical importance was the finding that not only were heat-stable antigens protective, but also heterologous protection resulted after immunization with three strains differing in source (disseminated gonococcal infection versus gonorrhea), opacity-transparency characteristics, and serum sensitivity. The data indicate that IgG antibodies resulting from systemic immunization with heat-stable antigens may be able to provide cross-protection immunity against gonorrhea.
