In a previous study, using BALB/c mice, we found that while diphtheria (D), tetanus (T) and whooping cough (Pw, whole-cell Bordetella pertussis) immunization induces a Th1/Th2 tetanus response and memory T cells able to proliferate in response to in vitro stimulation with B. pertussis, DTPa immunization induces a Th2 tetanus immune response and no memory T cells that recognize B. pertussis as stimulus. Considering that a pro-inflammatory cytokine production is not necessary for protection against tetanus and therefore should be avoided, an alternative DTP immunization schedule with minimal Pw exposure was assessed in order to obtain a Th2 tetanus response and a Th1 pertussis response. BALB/c mice were primed with DT vaccine at day 0, with Pw vaccine at day 14 and boosted with DTPa vaccine at days 21 and 28. A control group was inoculated with saline. Antibodies against B. pertussis surface antigens, tetanus and diphtheria toxoids were produced by mice. Spleen cells stimulated in vitro with B. pertussis produced IL-6 and IFNgamma. Only IL-5 was produced by cells in response to tetanus toxoid stimulation. These results are in line with the low IgG1/IgG2a ratio for pertussis antibodies compared with those corresponding to tetanus and diphtheria. The immunization protocol presented herein succeeded in producing tetanus and pertussis immune responses of Th2 and Th1 type, respectively. In contrast to previous results obtained with DTPw immunization, no IL-12 production was observed. Our findings provide direct evidence that an immunization protocol with an interval of 14 days between DT and Pw primings, followed by DTPa boosters, can induce appropriate immune responses against DTP vaccine antigens. 相似文献

DPT vaccine, designed to immunize against diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus, has been shown to be effective in humans. Nevertheless,
dissatisfaction with the whole-cell preparations is due to the reactogenicity, which has to lead to the development of new
safer formulations. Previously, we described the expression in tomato of a plant-optimized synthetic gene encoding the recombinant
polypeptide sDPT, containing mainly immunoprotective epitopes of the diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus exotoxins and two adjuvants.
In this study, we examined whether the ingestion of tomato-derived sDPT protein induces specific antibodies in mice after
three weekly doses scheme. A positive group immunized with DPT toxoids was included. Specific antibody levels were assessed
in serum, gut and lung. Sera tested for IgG antibody response to pertussis, tetanus and diphtheria toxin showed responses
to the foreign antigens; interestingly, the response to diphtheria epitope was similar to those observed in the positive group.
We found higher IgG1 than IgG2a responses in serum. A modest IgG response was observed in the tracheopulmonary fluid. High
response of IgA against tetanus toxin was evident in gut, which was statistically comparable to that obtained in the positive
group. The levels of response in these groups were higher than those in mice that received wild-type tomato. These findings
support the concept of using transgenic tomatoes expressing sDPT polypeptide as model for edible vaccine against diphtheria,
pertussis, and tetanus. 相似文献

Abstract The quality of the O-antigenic polysaccharide part of the cell wall lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a virulence determinant in Salmonella strains: isogenic derivatives with antigen O-4,12 have been shown to be more virulent than those with O-6,7 when given intraperitoneally (i.p.) to mice. The O-6,7 LPS activates complement by the alternative pathway more efficiently than does O-4,12. We show here that the O-6,7 (but not O-4,12) bacteria were rapidly killed in the peritoneal cavity of the mice, resulting in approx. 100-fold reduced numbers of bacteria reaching the liver; the subsequent rate of growth of the bacteria was not affected. After intravenous challenge, both O-6,7 and O-4,12 sister strains survived equally well in the liver and spleen and were of approximately equal virulence. We suggest that the rapid activation of complement by the O-6,7 LPS leads to the killing of these bacteria by the peritoneal cells and thereby to reduced virulence. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To determine the persistence of antibody to diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis in children receiving an accelerated schedule of primary immunisation. DESIGN--Controlled study of antibody testing of blood samples from children immunised according to various schedules: three doses of triple vaccine completed at 8-13 calendar months, 6-7 calendar months, before 6 calendar months, or three doses followed by diphtheria/tetanus before age 2. SETTING--Plymouth Health Authority. SUBJECTS--129 children aged 4 years who had received three doses of diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis vaccine with or without a diphtheria/tetanus booster. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Diphtheria and tetanus antitoxin concentrations and antibody titres to pertussis toxin, filamentous haemagglutinin, and agglutinogens 2 and 3. RESULTS--All children had protective concentrations of antitoxin to diphtheria and tetanus (greater than or equal to 0.01 IU/ml). There was no evidence of a significant difference in diphtheria or tetanus antitoxin concentrations and pertussis antibody titres in children immunised with an accelerated course (third dose of triple vaccine before 6 months) compared with those who received a longer course (third dose at 8-13 months) with no booster (geometric mean antitoxin concentration 0.411 (95% confidence interval 0.273 to 0.618) v 0.426 (0.294 to 0.616) for diphtheria and 0.358 (0.231 to 0.556) v 0.299 (0.197 to 0.453) for tetanus; geometric mean antibody titres 903 (500 to 1631) v 1386 (848 to 2266) for pertussis filamentous haemagglutinin, 179 (130 to 248) v 232 (167 to 322) for pertussis toxin, and 2002 (1276 to 3142) v 3591 (2220 to 5809) for agglutinogens 2 and 3). CONCLUSION--Immunisation with three doses of triple vaccine at monthly intervals completed before 6 months of age probably provides adequate protection against diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough which will persist until the age of the preschool booster. 相似文献

A national assessment of the efficacy of pertussis vaccination was made in 21 area health authorities in England. Notification rates for children given either three doses of diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis vaccine or diphtheria/tetanus vaccine were studied during the two and a half-year period January 1978-June 1980. A survey of home circumstances showed that the two vaccine groups could be validly compared. Home visits were made to assess the severity of the illness, the attack rates in home contacts, and to take pernasal swabs. Pertussis vaccination was found to be of outstanding value in preventing serious disease. Nevertheless, its effect in controlling whooping cough is limited by the fact that protection for home contacts is less satisfactory, and by the occurrence of mild cases in vaccinated children which may contribute to the spread of the disease. 相似文献

Adsorbed DPT vaccine and adsorbed DT toxoids with normal and reduced antigen content were used for the immunization of rabbits. The levels of IgM and IgG and the dynamics of antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins and to Bordetella pertussis in the blood sera of the animals were studied in the postvaccinal period (on days 15 and 34). This study revealed that the reduction of the antigen content of adsorbed DT toxoid to 5 Lf of diphtheria toxoid and 5 binding units of tetanus toxoid did not decrease the capacity of the preparation for increasing the levels of IgG and IgM, antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins in the sera of the rabbits. The reduced content of these toxoids in adsorbed DPT vaccine did not affect its capacity for inducing the enhanced synthesis of IgG, antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins, while the production of IgM and IgA remained unchanged. At the same time an increase in the titers of antibodies to B. pertussis in the animals was less pronounced than that observed after the injection of commercial adsorbed DPT vaccine. Additional investigations are necessary in order to establish the protective potency of the pertussis component in adsorbed DPT vaccine with the reduced content of toxoids and to find out the optimum antigenic composition for this preparation. 相似文献

A guinea pig model to assess the immunogenicity of a combination vaccine containing diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) capsular polysaccharide conjugated to tetanus toxoid (HibT) was evaluated comparatively with the mouse immunogenicity test to study the effect of combining these antigens on the immunogenicity of various components. The immunogenicity test in mice was performed by subcutaneous injection of groups of 10 animals twice at an interval of four weeks with 1/10 of a single human dose of various formulations of combination vaccines, DTaP or HibT vaccine. The animals were bled at 4 and 6 weeks and IgG or total antibodies to various components were determined by ELISA or RIA. The guinea pig immunogenicity model included groups of animals injected subcutaneously twice at an interval of six weeks with 1.5 times the single human dose of various formulations. The animals were bled at 4, 6 and 8 weeks and serum samples were tested for antibodies to various components by ELISA, RIA and/or neutralization tests. Additionally, potency of tetanus and diphtheria components was assessed as per the US Food and Drug Administration's regulations. Aluminium phosphate (AIPO(4)) adsorbed HibT vaccine or HibT as a combination with AIPO(4)adsorbed DTaP vaccine showed significant increases in IgG antibodies to tetanus toxin in mice as well increased tetanus antitoxin levels in guinea pigs as compared to soluble HibT vaccine. In general, combining DTaP and HibT vaccines did not affect the antibody levels to tetanus and diphtheria toxoids whereas DTaP-HibT combination vaccine elicited significantly lower IgG antibodies to pertussis toxin and filamentous haemagglutinin than DTaP vaccine alone, particularly after first injection. Mice showed similar Hib antibody responses for the combination and HibT alone whereas guinea pigs consistently showed lower anamnestic responses to Hib for combination formulations than for HibT alone. Reducing the amount of HibT and/or tetanus toxoid in the combination formulations reduced this suppression of Hib antibody response in guinea pigs. Suppression of Hib antibody response in combination vaccines has also been reported from recent clinical trials. Based on the results from this study, it appears that the guinea pig model may be able to predict the human response to various components of combination vaccines. 相似文献

The analysis of the morbidity and mortality rates in diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis in Bulgaria after the introduction of the compulsory mass immunization of children with combined DPT vaccine is presented. These data indicate that morbidity in diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis has sharply decreased. Favorable results with respect to these three diseases are the consequence of the complete coverage of the child population by immunization with the vaccine whose quality has been steadily improving for the last 20 years. A higher purity of toxoids has been achieved, and at present it exceeds the latest WHO requirements. Pertussis vaccine is produced with the use of strains whose serological characteristics correspond to those of the pertussis strains circulating in the country. The study of the reactogenicity of DPT vaccine, carried out over the period of 20 years, has shown that the vaccine has low reactogenicity. 相似文献

The partially degraded lipopolysaccharide of Burkholderia cepacia (LPSdegr) and the ornithine-containing lipids were purified from some bacteria. The substances were developed as complex lipid adjuvants, because they have weak toxicity and are able to activate the immune systems of the living body. After various toxoid antigens such as pertussis toxoid, diphtheria toxoid and tetanus toxoid were mixed with the complex lipid adjuvants, the mixtures were administered to mice subcutaneously. Antitoxoid IgG antibody titers in the serum were measured several times over 3 months. The efficacy of the LPSdegr as adjuvant was almost as high as that of the ornithine-containing lipids, and it was almost equal to that of the aluminum hydroxide adjuvant (Alum), which is generally used as a vaccine adjuvant. 相似文献

The immunological effectiveness of two batches of adsorbed DPT vaccine, the batch with the normal content of antigens (control) and the batch with the content of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids reduced to 20 Lf/ml and 5 BU/ml respectively (test batch), has been studied under the conditions of controlled trial. As a result, the reduction of the antigenic content of adsorbed DPT vaccine has been found to exert no negative influence on the immunological effectiveness of the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis components of this preparation under the conditions of the new immunization schedule. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To determine long term outcome in children who had a severe acute neurological illness in early childhood associated with pertussis immunisation. DESIGN--Follow up study of cases and matched controls. SETTING--Assessment of children at home and at school throughout Britain. SUBJECTS--Children recruited into the national childhood encephalopathy study in 1976-9 were followed up, with one of their two original matched controls, in 1986-9. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Performance in educational attainment tests; behaviour problems reported by teachers and parents; continuing convulsions; evidence of other neurological or physical dysfunction. RESULTS--Over 80% of cases and controls were traced. Case children were significantly more likely than controls to have died or to have some form of educational, behavioural, neurological, or physical dysfunction a decade after their illness. The prevalence of one or more of these adverse outcomes in case children who had been immunised with diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis vaccine within seven days before onset of their original illness was similar to that in case children who had not been immunised recently. The relative risk for recent diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis immunisation in children who had died or had any dysfunction in comparison with controls was 5.5 (95% confidence interval 1.6 to 23.7). However, the number of cases associated with vaccine (12) was extremely small and statistically vulnerable, and other possible agents or predisposing factors could not be excluded. CONCLUSIONS--Diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis vaccine may on rare occasions be associated with the development of severe acute neurological illnesses that can have serious sequelae. Some cases may occur by chance or have other causes. The role of pertussis vaccine as a prime or concomitant factor in the aetiology of these illnesses cannot be determined in any individual case. The balance of possible risk against known benefits from pertussis immunisation supports continued use of the vaccine. 相似文献

The injection of killed whole-cell pertussis vaccine (PV), prepared from formulated Bordetella pertussis strains 5574 and 305, into mice was shown to produce a stimulating effect on hematopoiesis. This effect was manifested by an increase in the number of endogenic colonies developing in the spleen of mice on days 5 and 9 after their irradiation in a sublethal dose, by the sharp stimulation of the proliferative activity of splenic colony-forming units (CFUs) originating in the bone marrow and by the elevated CFUs level in the peripheral blood. The preliminary incubation of whole-cell PV with polymyxin B, cationic polypeptide selectively reacting with the lipid A moiety of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), led to a sharp decrease in the above-mentioned manifestations of hematopoietic effect of the vaccine, while incubation with cetavlon interacting with the polysaccharide moiety of LPS produced practically no effect on the capacity of the vaccine for stimulating hematopoiesis. The stimulating effect of whole-cell PV on hematopoiesis is supposedly due, to a great extent, to the lipid A moiety of LPS. 相似文献

In 1974 it was recommended that pertussis vaccine should continue to be offered in a triple vaccine together with diphtheria and tetanus vaccines. Further data on the prevalence of whooping cough and the incidence of adverse reactions have shown no reason to change this policy; the hazard of whooping cough remains greater than that of immunization. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the contribution of whole-cell pertussis vaccine to severe local reactions after the preschool (fifth) dose of adsorbed diphtheria toxoid-pertussis vaccine-tetanus toxoid (DPT) vaccine. DESIGN: Double-blind randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Urban community. PARTICIPANTS: Volunteer sample of 200 healthy children 4 to 6 years old who were eligible for the fifth dose of DPT vaccine. INTERVENTIONS: Children received, in both arms, either diphtheria toxoid-tetanus toxoid (DT) and monovalent pertussis vaccines (group A, 99 children) or DPT and meningococcal vaccines (group B, 101 children). All were licensed products from single lots. The children were assessed 24 hours later by a trained observer. Serum samples obtained before vaccination were tested for antibodies to tetanus and diphtheria toxins and five pertussis antigens by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Rates of severe local reactions (an area of redness or swelling or both of 50 mm or greater) 24 hours after vaccination. Relation between serum antibody levels before vaccination and rates of severe local reactions to corresponding vaccines. RESULTS: All of the subjects were followed up 24 hours after vaccination. Severe redness was present in 38% given DPT vaccine, 29% given intramuscular pertussis vaccine and 9% given DT vaccine (p < or = 0.002, three-way comparison). Severe swelling was common after vaccination with all three products. After intramuscular pertussis vaccination a relation was evident between the prevaccination levels of antibody to whole-cell pertussis bacteria and the rates of redness (p < 0.02) but not between the prevaccination subcellular antibody levels and the rates of redness. CONCLUSION: That pertussis vaccine resembled the DPT vaccine in causing severe redness suggests that it is the principal cause of such reactions after DPT vaccination. The DT vaccine was also reactogenic; thus, cumulative sensitization to one or more of its constituents may be a factor. 相似文献

A microtissue culture method for the assay of low concentrations of diphtheria antitoxin in human sera has been developed, using a monkey kidney cell (VERO) culture technique. Results obtained with sera from nonvaccinated children and with immune sera from children vaccinated with three and four injections of diphtheria pertussis tetanus vaccine were in agreement with antitoxin levels considered necessary to denote immunity to diphtheria. The use of microplates and organic buffer for culturing the animal cells improved the stability of the tissue culture system. The described method is sensitive, economical, and applicable for the titration of antitoxin in human sera particularly from infants and children from whom a minimum amount of serum is available. 相似文献

A patient is described who developed renal failure due to a severe proliferative glomerulonephritis with hypocomplementaemia and cryoglobulinaemia while repeatedly injecting herself with diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus vaccine (D.P.T. vaccine). After stopping the antigen administration there was recovery of renal function, complement values returned to normal, and cryoglobulin could no longer be recovered from the sera. The pathogenesis of the glomerulonephritis is discussed. 相似文献

Serogroup C meningococcal conjugate vaccines generally use diphtheria or tetanus toxoids as the protein carriers. The use of alternative carrier proteins may allow multivalent conjugate vaccines to be formulated into a single injection and circumvent potential problems of immune suppression in primed individuals. Bordetella pertussis fimbriae were assessed as carrier proteins for Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C polysaccharide. Fimbriae were conjugated to the polysaccharide using modifications of published methods and characterised by size exclusion chromatography; co-elution of protein and polysaccharide moieties confirmed conjugation. The conjugates elicited boostable IgG responses to fimbriae and serogroup C polysaccharide in mice, and IgG:IgM ratios indicated that the responses were thymus-dependent. High bactericidal antibody titres against a serogroup C strain of N. meningitidis were also observed. In a mouse infection model, the conjugate vaccine protected against lethal infection with N. meningitidis. Therefore, B. pertussis fimbriae are effective carrier proteins for meningococcal serogroup C polysaccharide and could produce a vaccine to protect against meningococcal disease and to augment protection against pertussis. 相似文献
