乙肝疫苗快速阻断HBV母婴传播的研究

为获得更快速的免疫应答,用３０μｇ／ｍｌ乙肝血源疫苗以０、２、６周免疫程序对６８名ＨＢｓＡｇ阳性母亲婴儿作了阻断ＨＢＶ母婴传播免疫效果的观察,并和常规的０、１、６月接种方案的结果进行了比较。结果表明ＨＢＩＧ合并乙肝疫苗或单用疫苗组产生抗─ＨＢｓ（＞１０ｍＩＵ／ｍｌ）血清转换率于Ｔ６Ｍ、Ｔ１２Ｍ时分别为９１．８９％,和８３．８７％;８１．０８％和８３．８７％。短程和常规免疫方案婴儿所产生的保护性抗─ＨＢＳ动态比较,表明以０、２、６周免疫后的Ｔ６ｗ、Ｔ６ｍ时的抗─ＨＢｓ有效率分别为１９．３５％和８３．８７％,明显高于０、１、６月免疫者同期抗体水平（Ｐ＜０．０１）。至Ｔ１２Ｍ时两组的阳转率无显著性差异,说明０、２、６周免疫方案能早期诱导出保护性抗─ＨＢｓ免疫应答。

Evaluation of reactogenicity and immunogenicity of Bubo-M, the Russian combined vaccine for immunization of adults against diphtheria, tetanus and viral hepatitis B

Bubo-M, the first Russian associated vaccine, was found to have low reactogenicity and high immunogenic potency. The frequency of postvaccinal reactions in the group of persons immunized with Bubo-M (20%) appeared to be considerably lower than among persons who received the combined injection of adsorbed DT toxoid with reduced antigen content and vaccine against hepatitis B (47.7%). Following the course of vaccination the level of anti-HBs considerably exceeded the protective level. Immune response to the diphtheria and tetanus components of Bubo-M exceeded that observed after immunization with absorbed DT toxoid with reduced antigen content (p < 0.05).     

In vitro evaluation methods for Clostridium botulinum type C and D vaccines

Reagents were prepared for use in ELISAs to determine the concentration of the antigenic components of Clostridium botulinum type C and D. The results obtained were compared with the L+dose assay and a good correlation was found between the two assays for measurement of the C and D neurotoxin concentration. These ELISAs were also used to determine the concentration of the neurotoxins in toxoid form. The relationship between the C neurotoxin dose, in toxoid form, and the immune response in guinea pigs could be deduced from the data obtained. The relationship for the D neurotoxin was not that clear, as the same concentration of the antigen resulted in variable potency values. However, these ELISAs can be used to formulate the concentration of the C and D components in the final bivalent vaccine. Replacement of the preliminary potency assay on the monovalent components after production with the in vitro assays will shorten the total production time of the vaccine by about 60 days. The economical and ethical implications are the reduction in the use of animals to evaluate the vaccine.     

腐败梭菌α毒素基因的克隆表达及其类毒素的免疫原性研究

根据GenBank公布的腐败梭菌α毒素基因序列,设计了一对引物,并以腐败梭菌基因组为模板,经PCR特异性扩增出腐败梭菌菌株HeB01的α毒素基因。序列分析表明,该基因产物大小为1323bp,与GenBank报道的4个腐败梭菌参考菌株α毒素基因序列同源性高于99·5%。将扩增的α毒素基因定向克隆到原核表达载体pQE30中,得到重组质粒pQE30-α,将重组质粒转化大肠杆菌M15中,得到重组菌株M15(pQE30-α),经IPTG诱导后,SDS-PAGE分析可见表达的48kD特异条带;Westernblot和ELISA检测实验表明:表达的α毒素与抗天然α毒素抗体发生特异性反应,说明α毒素蛋白具有较好的免疫原性。将表达的α毒素蛋白制成类毒素疫苗,免疫小鼠后,具有一定的保护能力,表明该重组菌株有望作为腐败梭菌基因工程类毒素疫苗的候选生产菌株。     

EV71与CA16双价灭活疫苗诱导小鼠免疫原性研究

目的评价EV71和CA16双价灭活疫苗免疫小鼠诱导的体液免疫和细胞免疫应答。方法分别应用EV71和CA16双价疫苗、EV71和CA16单价疫苗按单针、两针(0,14 d)的程序免疫小鼠,采用细胞病变法检测血清第1针免疫后21 d时中和抗体效价,应用LUMINEX液相芯片技术检测小鼠脾单个核细胞体外经抗原刺激分泌细胞因子的水平。结果双价疫苗与EV71单价疫苗单针、两针免疫相比,EV71中和抗体几何平均值相近(118.8∶84.0;159.5∶156.8,P0.05)。双价疫苗与CA16单价疫苗单针免疫诱导的CA16中和抗体均为阴性;两针免疫CA16中和抗体几何平均值一致(30.0∶26.9,P0.05)。加强免疫7 d后,小鼠脾MNC经EV71抗原刺激,双价疫苗较EV71单价疫苗诱导Th2类细胞因子IL-4、5、6、10和炎症因子TNF-α的分泌水平显著增高(P=0.020,P=0.027,P=0.038,P=0.019,P=0.026);MNC经CA16抗原刺激,双价疫苗与CA16单价疫苗相比诱导细胞因子水平差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论双价疫苗可诱导与单价疫苗相似的中和抗体应答水平,并可提高Th2类细胞因子应答,研究为EV71和CA16双价灭活疫苗的研发提供了实验依据。     

DTaP-Hib联合疫苗中Hib-TT免疫原性研究

Influence of adjuvants in inducing immune responses to different epitopes included in a multiepitope,multivalent, multistage Plasmodium falciparum candidate vaccine (FALVAC-1) in outbred mice

FALVAC-1, a vaccine against Plasmodium falciparum was developed by joining 21 epitopes from P. falciparum vaccine antigens and an universal T helper epitope from tetanus toxoid. Since adjuvants influence different aspects of immune responses, in this study we investigated the effect of four adjuvants aluminum hydroxide (alum), nonionic copolymer adjuvant P1005 (water-in-oil emulsion), CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN), and QS-21 in eliciting immune responses in outbred mice. QS-21 and copolymer adjuvants were the best formulations in inducing higher and long-lasting antibody titers to the whole vaccine compared to alum and CpG. QS-21 was the only adjuvant to elicit predominantly IgG2a response and antibodies reactive with all epitopes incorporated in the vaccine construct. Vaccine elicited antibodies recognized sporozoites and asexual blood-stage parasites. FALVAC-1 immunized mice induced lymphoproliferative and IFN-gamma response to the vaccine. QS-21 and CpG adjuvants were able to elicit T proliferative responses to 20 of the 22 epitopes in the vaccine. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that with suitable adjuvant such as QS-21, it is possible to elicit immune responses to most of the epitopes included in the FALVAC-1 vaccine.     

A polyvalent vaccine for high-risk prostate patients: “are more antigens better?”

We have shown the immunogenicity and safety of synthetic carbohydrate vaccines when conjugated to the carrier keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and given with the adjuvant, QS-21, in patients with biochemically relapsed prostate cancer. To determine whether immune response could be further enhanced with stimulation by multiple antigens, a hexavalent vaccine was prepared using previously determined doses and administered in a Phase II setting to 30 high-risk patients. The hexavalent vaccine included GM2, Globo H, Lewis^y, glycosylated MUC-1-32mer and Tn and TF in a clustered formation, conjugated to KLH and mixed with QS-21. Eight vaccinations were administered over 13 months. All 30 patients had significant elevations in antibody titers to at least two of the six antigens; 22 patients had increased reactivity with FACS. These serologic responses were lower than that seen previously in patients treated with the respective monovalent vaccines. The reciprocal median combined IgM and IgG antibody titers with ELISA against MUC1, Tn, TF, globo H and GM2 for these 30 patients were 640, 80, 120, 40 and 0, compared to 1280, 640, 1280, 320 and 160 seen in patients receiving individual monovalent vaccines. This hexavalent vaccine of synthetic “self” antigens broke immunologic tolerance against two or more antigens in all 30 vaccinated patients, was safe, but antibody titers against several of the antigens were lower than those seen in individual monovalent trials. No impact on PSA slope was detected. We address the relevance of the multivalent approach for prostate cancer treatment.

A combined vaccine against <Emphasis Type="Italic">Brucella abortus</Emphasis> and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis

The present study was undertaken to study the immune response in calves vaccinated with Brucella abortus strain 19, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) vaccines in monovalent form and combined vaccine containing both antigen. The seroconversion of monovalent and combined vaccines was tested in seronegative cattle calves. IBR vaccine alone and combination with live Brucella abortus S19 vaccine elicited an anamnestic response on day 60 post booster but started declining from day 90 onwards against IBR. B. abortus S19 alone and in combination with IBR vaccine gave more than 2 log protection in mice two weeks post challenge. Fluorescence polarization assay analysis with sera samples of calves vaccinated with B. abortus S19 monovalent vaccine alone and in combination with IBR vaccine revealed the presence of B. abortus antibodies. The components of the combined vaccine did not show any evidence of interference in the development of immunity. This combined vaccine may provide economical and affordable biological for the control of brucellosis and IBR.     

Influence of genetic and phenotypical factors on the efficiency of the vaccination of young children against diphtheria and measles

The child's sex was shown to influence the character of antibody formation only after immunization against diphtheria with live measles vaccine: girls exhibited stronger reaction to vaccination than boys. Children of different gender were found to have characteristic HLA DR markers of humoral immune response to diphtheria toxoid and measles vaccine. HLA DR7 proved to be the marker of low production of antibodies to diphtheria toxoid and measles vaccine in boys.
