Background
Our previous study suggested newborns have competent immune systems with the potential to respond to foreign antigens and vaccines. In this study, we examined infant immune responses to tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccination in the presence of maternal antibody to TT.Methods
We examined changes in plasma levels of tetanus toxoid‐specific IgG1 (anti‐TT IgG1) in a total of eight infant rhesus macaques from birth through 6 months of age using a commercial Monkey Anti‐TT IgG1 ELISA kit.Results
A significant correlation between anti‐TT IgG1 levels in vaccinated dams and their paired newborn infants was detected in control (non‐vaccinated) infants as previously reported. Maternal anti‐TT IgG1 levels declined rapidly within 1 month of birth in non‐vaccinated infants (n=4). In four infants vaccinated with TT at birth, we found two had rapid and robust antibody responses to vaccination. Interestingly, the other two first showed declining TT antibody levels for 2 weeks followed by increasing levels without additional vaccine boosts, indicating all four had good antibody responses to primary TT vaccination at birth, despite the presence of high levels of maternal antibodies to TT in all four infants.Conclusions
Our data indicate that newborn macaques have competent immune systems that are capable of generating their own primary antibody responses to vaccination, at least to tetanus antigens. Maternal antibodies thus do not significantly impair antibody response to the vaccination, even when received on the day of birth in infant rhesus macaques. 相似文献2.
The study was conducted in Atlantic salmon to establish the initial and basic scientific documentation for an alternative batch potency test for salmon furuculosis vaccines. We assessed the antibody response development for Aeromonas salmonicida vaccines at different immunisation temperatures (3, 12 and 18 °C), by an enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay (ELISA) 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks post vaccination, and the correlation between antibody response and protection in cohabitation challenge experiments performed 6 and 12 weeks post vaccination. Fish immunised with a vaccine containing full antigen dose had a significant increase in antibody response after 252 day degrees and the measured values correlated well with protection after 500 day degrees. Fish vaccinated with a reduced antigen dose showed a significant lower antibody response than fish vaccinated with the full dose vaccine at all samplings, and showed a similar low relative percent survival (RPS) in the challenges. The results from this study indicate that an antibody ELISA can discriminate between vaccines of different antigen content and the method may replace challenge tests in batch potency testing of furunculosis vaccines in Atlantic salmon. An immunisation temperature of 12 °C and sampling after 6-9 weeks, seemed to be the most appropriate time for using antibody responses to confirm batch potency. 相似文献

In experiments of curative vaccination, carried out with the use of an experimental model similar to the current practice of treatment with antirabies preparations, the advantages of using tissue-culture rabies vaccine with immunogenic potency equal to 1.3 international units (I. U.) were shown. In these experiments the vaccine was introduced into guinea pigs infected with fixed rabies virus, the course of vaccination consisting of 14 daily injections. No correlation between the induction of virus-neutralizing antibodies and the immunogenic potency of tissue-culture rabies vaccine was established: the use of the vaccine with immunogenic potency equal to 0,3 and 1,3 I.U. had no essential influence on the level of antibody formation in the animals. 相似文献

Clostridium septicum, a ubiquitious organism, is the pathogen which causes the classical malignant edema after injuries. Because of its strong cytotoxic alpha-toxin, infections are often lethal. To prevent losses in animals, vaccination with alpha-toxoid vaccines is carried out. Quality control of the vaccines is done by a neutralization test in mice. A cytotoxin test and as an alternative method to detect neutralizing antibodies, a cytotoxin inhibition test was standardized. In the studies, alpha-toxin of the C. septicum reference strain (NC 547) from the National Collection of Type Cultures was compared with alpha-toxin of a field strain from an outbreak in Germany. Sera from five heterologous polyvalent and three monovalent vaccines from eight rabbit groups were available. Each vaccination had been carried out according to the procedure of the German Pharmacopoeia. In three out of the five sera of the groups vaccinated with the heterologous polyvalent vaccine, cytotoxin neutralizing antibodies were detected. High antibody titers were observed in sera of rabbits vaccinated with a vaccine of strain NC 547, lower titers in the sera of rabbits vaccinated with a vaccine of the field strain. No cytotoxin neutralizing antibodies could be found in the sera of rabbits vaccinated with the monovalent C. chauvoei vaccine. The toxins of all strains showed the same ranking of the vaccines. Vaccines which caused high antibody titers in the animals were detected by all toxins as such, as well as vaccines which had medium or low antibody inducing capacity. The results were independent of the C. septicum strain used for the production of alpha-toxin. 相似文献

Three combined triple antigen vaccines were used to inoculate infants receiving primary immunization at 3 to 6 months of age. Laboratory potency and toxicity tests and clinical evaluation again showed that the mouse weight gain test is able to predict which vaccines will give reactions in children. The addition of aluminium hydroxide to the vaccine both increased potency and reduced the tendency to cause reactions. Assays on sera showed that almost all children produced agglutinins to Bordetella pertussis types 1, 2, and 3 when the vaccine contained aluminium hydroxide. 相似文献

The efficacy of six acellular pertussis vaccines, prepared by various manufacturers in Japan, was investigated in a murine model of respiratory infection (aerosol challenge model) and a murine intracerebral (i.c.) challenge model. There was a good correlation between bacterial clearance from the lungs after aerosol challenge and the potency of vaccines as determined by i.c. challenge. The levels of antibodies against filamentous hemagglutinin were higher after immunizations with all tested vaccines than the levels of antibodies against pertussis toxin and pertactin. Spleen cells from mice immunized with each individual vaccine secreted interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) in response to stimulation by pertussis toxin, filamentous hemagglutinin and fimbriae. The production of interleukin-4 in response to each of the antigens tested was detected but was lower than that of IFN-gamma. However, antibody levels and cell-mediated immune responses were not correlated with the protective effects of the vaccines after aerosol challenge and after i.c. challenge. 相似文献

Early vaccination is necessary to protect infants from various infectious diseases. However, this is often unsuccessful largely due to the immaturity of the neonatal immune system. Furthermore, maternally derived antibodies can interfere with active immunization. We have previously shown in young mice that immune responses against several different antigens can be improved by the addition of oligodeoxynucleotides containing immunostimulatory CpG motifs (CpG ODN). In this study we have evaluated immunization of newborn (1-7-day-old) BALB/c mice against hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), with alum and/or CpG ODN, in the presence of high levels of maternal antibody against HBsAg (anti-HBs). Seroconversion rates and anti-HBs titers were compared to those induced by a HBsAg-expressing plasmid, since other studies had suggested DNA vaccines to be superior to protein vaccines in young mice with maternal antibody. HBsAg/alum/CpG ODN was superior to DNA vaccine in inducing HBsAg-specific CTL responses in young mice in the presence of maternally transferred anti-HBs antibodies. However, B cell responses to both HBsAg/alum/CpG ODN and DNA vaccines remained weak in the presence of maternally transferred anti-HBs antibodies. 相似文献

Immunogenicity and protective efficacy study using combination of four tuberculosis DNA vaccines 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Tuberculosis is an ancient scourge of mankind. According to statistics, there are more than 10 million new cases of tuberculosis each year and the annual death toll for tuberculosis exceeds three millions. The current available BCG is of questionable efficacy, and its protection ranges from 0 to 85%. Therefore, developing a safe and effective vaccine against this scourge is very important. Previous studies have shown that the secreted proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. TB) can induc… 相似文献

Immune response and protective efficacy for the combination of four tuberculosis DNA vaccines were evaluated in this study. We obtained 1:200 antibody titers against Ag85B 21d after mice were vaccinated for the first time by four recombinant eukaryotic expression vectors containing coding sequences for Ag85B, MPT-64, MPT-63 and ESAT-6. The titers of Ag85B were elevated to 1:102400 after the second injection and decreased to 1:12800 after the third injection. Antibody titers for MPT-64 and MPT-63 reached 1:25600 21 d after the first vaccination, and were then decreased following the second and third injections. No antigen-specific antibody titer against ESAT-6 was detected in sera harvested from immunized mice at any time. These DNA vaccines evoked specific IFN-λ responses in the spleens of vaccinated mice as well. When challenged with M. tuberculosis H37Rv, we found that the lungs of the vaccinated mice produced 99.8% less bacterial counts than that of the empty-vector control group and the bacterial counts were also significantly less than that of the BCG group. Histopathological analyses showed that the lungs of vaccinated mice produced no obvious caseation while over 50%-70% of the pulmonary parenchyma tissue produced central caseation in the vector control group. Our results indicated that the combination of four tuberculosis DNA vaccines may generate high levels of immune responses and result in better animal protection. 相似文献

The immunization of human beings with paratyphoid B vaccines, in doses producing a marked protective effect in field trials, resulted in H-agglutinin titers that were significantly higher than those produced by ineffective doses. In immunization of rabbits and white mice, the same difference in doses had a significant effect on the ability of vaccines to stimulate the formation of H and O antibodies. A parallel was noted between the effectiveness of vaccine for human beings and the activity of sera of the corresponding group of people in the passive mouse-protection test, with a correlation between such activity of sera and the 19S O-hemagglutinin titers. The data obtained suggested as promising the determination of agglutinin dynamics in the sera of inoculated human beings and animals to evaluate the antigenic activity of paratyphoid B vaccines in the laboratory. The passive mouse-protection test with human sera holds promise for laboratory evaluation of the effectiveness of paratyphoid B vaccines. At the same time, none of the variation of the active mouse-protection test employed permitted a significant difference to be detected between the vaccines effective and ineffective for man. Comparison of data on the frequency and degree of febrile vaccine reactions in man with results of laboratory evaluation of vaccine toxicity showed that, provided a reference vaccine with known pyrogenic capacity for man was employed, the study of stress effect of vaccines on guinea-pigs (determination of 17-oxycorticosteroid content) may permit prediction of the reactive power of the vaccine. No correlation was found between the pyrogenic capacity of vaccines for man and their toxicity for mice. 相似文献

Elderly humans over 65 years old are at great risk to pathogenesis by influenza virus infection. However, although influenza vaccines provide effective protection in healthy young adults, protection of elderly adults is substantially lower even with a good match between the vaccine and the circulating influenza virus. To gain insight of the underlying mechanism for the reduced immunogenicity of influenza vaccines in the aged population, we investigated immunogenicity of influenza virus-like particle vaccines in aged mice, which represent a useful model for studying aging associated impairment in immune responses. Specifically, we investigated the effect of inhibiting regulatory T cells in aged mice on induction of protective immune responses by influenza vaccines. Our results showed that injecting anti-CD25 antibodies could down-regulate CD25 on the surface of regulatory T cells and significantly increase the levels of antibody responses induced by VLP immunization in aged mice. Further, the profiles of antibody responses were also changed towards Th1 type by regulatory T cell blockage in aged mice. Moreover, aged mice that were treated by anti-CD25 antibodies prior to vaccination were more effectively protected against lethal influenza virus challenge. 相似文献

We investigated fecal IgA antibody responses after oral polyvalent poliovirus vaccination. Infants were given vaccines twice with an interval of 6 weeks. Specific IgA antibodies in the feces were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and viruses were isolated in tissue cultures. We found that, after the first vaccination, antibody responses seemed to be elicited only against the serotypes of isolated viruses. After the second vaccination, however, antibodies were detected to all three serotypes with higher titers, suggesting that the first vaccination induced the immunologic memory. The IgA antibodies had virus-neutralizing activity, and existed in the feces as both intact 11S and fragmented 4S molecules. Next, children were given the third vaccination 3 or 9 years later. Fecal IgA antibody responses were found to be poorer in elder children, while they responded with high serum neutralization titers. The secretory IgA memory seemed to last much shorter the serum IgG memory. 相似文献

The European Pharmacopoeia proposes two methods for potency determination of inactivated rabies vaccines for veterinary use: The first one is a classical mouse challenge test, which is imprecise, time-consuming, and causes severe distress to the test animals. Alternatively, the potency may be determined serologically by measuring the neutralizing antibody titers induced after vaccination of mice by using a rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT). Although this method is faster and less painful for the animals, it is not widely used yet, and only little data exist concerning the comparability of both methods.We have therefore performed a comparative study, in which we demonstrated a good correlation between the challenge test results and the mean titers determined by RFFIT. Furthermore, all vaccine batches failing the challenge test were also recognized as insufficient in the serological assay. This publication further describes the influence of different vaccine administration routes on the resulting antibody titers, and it proposes various modifications to the serological assay protocol which could improve its overall practicability. Finally, we recommend that the serological assay be used for the potency testing of inactivated rabies vaccines. 相似文献

DNA vaccines have emerged as an attractive approach for generating antigen-specific immunotherapy. Strategies that enhance antigen presentation may potentially be used to enhance DNA vaccine potency. Previous experiments showed that chimeric DNA vaccines utilizing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone molecules, such as Calreticulin (CRT), linked to an antigen were capable of generating antigen-specific CD8+ T cell immune responses in vaccinated mice. In this study, we tested DNA vaccines encoding the ER chaperone molecules ER-60, tapasin (Tap), or calnexin (Cal), linked to human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E7 for their abilities to generate E7-specific T cell-mediated immune responses and antitumor effects in vaccinated mice. Our results demonstrated that vaccination with DNA encoding any of these chaperone molecules linked to E7 led to a significant increase in the frequency of E7-specific CD8+ T cell precursors and generated stronger antitumor effects against an E7-expressing tumor in vaccinated mice compared to vaccination with wild-type E7 DNA. Our data suggest that DNA vaccines employing these ER chaperone molecules linked to antigen may enhance antigen-specific CD8+ T cell immune responses, resulting in a significantly more potent DNA vaccine. 相似文献

DNA vaccines against botulinum neurotoxin (BoNTs) induce protective humoral immune responses in mouse model, but when compared with conventional vaccines such as toxoid and protein vaccines, DNA vaccines often induce lower antibody level and protective efficacy and are still necessary to increase their potency. In this study we evaluated the potency of aluminum phosphate as an adjuvant of DNA vaccines to enhance antibody responses and protective efficacy against botulinum neurotoxin serotypes A and B in Balb/c mice. The administration of these individual and bivalent plasmid DNA replicon vaccines against botulinum neurotoxin serotypes A and B in the presence of aluminum phosphate improved both antibody responses and protective efficacy. Furthermore, formulation of conventional plasmid DNA vaccines encoding the same Hc domains of botulinum neurotoxin serotypes A and B with aluminum phosphate adjuvant increased both antibody responses and protective efficacy. These results indicate aluminum phosphate is an effective adjuvant for these two types of DNA vaccines (i.e., plasmid DNA replicon vaccines and conventional plasmid DNA vaccines), and the vaccine formulation described here may be an excellent candidate for further vaccine development against botulinum neurotoxins. 相似文献

A study has been carried out in the Ivory Coast to assess the efficacy of a combined vaccine against yellow fever and measles relative to that of each vaccine administered separately. Healthy children aged six to nine months were recruited and divided into two age groups: less than seven months (group I) and more than eight months (group II). In each group, they were randomly assigned to receive either yellow fever vaccine only (A), measles vaccine only (B), or the combined vaccine (C). The serological responses to measles and yellow fever were assessed in 219 initially seronegative children 45 days after immunization. More than 90% of the children developed yellow fever haemagglutination inhibiting antibodies. Neither age nor combination with measles vaccine influenced the responses to yellow fever vaccine. Measles haemagglutinational inhibiting antibodies were found in 97% of the children and the seroconversion rate was influenced neither by age nor by combination with yellow fever vaccine. Younger infants had lower titres of measles antibody. No particular adverse reactions were notified during the follow up. This study shows that combined yellow fever and measles vaccines are immunogenic in infants from the age of six months. Controlling yellow fever in endemic areas and the prevention of measles in young infants may greatly benefit by this combination. 相似文献

The Pertussis Serological Potency Test (PSPT)--based on in vitro assessment of the humoral immune response against Bordetella pertussis--was developed as an alternative for the Mouse Protection Test (MPT). A small-scale collaborative study was carried out in five laboratories to evaluate the relevance and reliability of the PSPT. The study has been divided into three separate phases, each with its own objective. A pilot-phase study of the antibody detection assay, the 18323-whole cell ELISA (WCE), was included for training purposes. Significant differences in absorbance and antibody concentrations between the laboratories were found. In the Phase I study, the intra-assay, inter-assay and inter-laboratory precisions of the 18323-WCE were assessed. Although a precision of less than 20% was not always established and significant differences in antibody concentrations were found at random throughout the Phase I study, the ranking of the antibody concentrations corresponded well between the laboratories and should warrant a reliable potency estimation of whole cell vaccines (WCV's) in the PSPT. Phase II was a comparative study of the PSPT and the MPT to evaluate the implementation of the PSPT, to demonstrate correlation and to compare the reproducibility and reliability of both tests. The mean antibody concentrations per vaccine dose in the PSPT and the survival of mice in the MPT differed significantly within and between the laboratories. Nevertheless, the potencies of the vaccines under test estimated in both test models did not differ significantly (P>0.05). The PSPT and MPT correlated well in chi2-test of homogeneity within and between the laboratories. The potencies were similar (overall ratio=0.877), but the PSPT is more reproducible and reduces the chance of re-testing due to the smaller 95% confidence intervals. We have demonstrated that the PSPT is a valid model to estimate the potencies of pertussis WCV's from different manufacturers. Moreover, the 18323-WCE is easy to carry out and the intra-assay precision and antibody ranking warrants a reliable potency testing of pertussis WCV's in the PSPT. 相似文献

Combinations of DNA and recombinant-viral-vector based vaccines are promising AIDS vaccine methods because of their potential for inducing cellular immune responses. It was found that Gag-specific cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL) responses were associated with lowering viremia in an untreated HIV-1 infected cohort. The main objectives of our studies were the construction of DNA and recombinant Sendal virus vector (rSeV) vaccines containing a gag gene from the prevalent Thailand subtype B strain in China and trying to use these vaccines for therapeutic and prophylactic vaccines. The candidate plasmid DNA vaccine pcDNA3.1( )-gag and recombinant Sendai virus vaccine (rSeV-gag) were constructed separately. It was verified by Western blotting analysis that both DNA and rSeV-gag vaccines expressed the HIV-1 Gag protein correctly and efficiently. Balb/c mice were immunized with these two vaccines in different administration schemes. HIV-1 Gag-specific CTL responses and antibody levels were detected by intracellular cytokine staining assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) respectively. Combined vaccines in a DNA prime/rSeV-gag boost vaccination regimen induced the strongest and most long-lasting Gag-specific CTL and antibody responses. It maintained relatively high levels even 9 weeks post immunization. This data indicated that the prime-boost regimen with DNA and rSeV-gag vaccines may offer promising HIV vaccine regimens. 相似文献
