To clarify the immunologic effects of vaccination in dogs, we monitored total leukocyte and lymphocyte counts, humoral antibody responses, blastogenic responses of lymphocyte, and delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses after vaccination. Mixed vaccines were administered on day 0 except for canine parvovirus (CPV) vaccine which was readministered on day 21. The puppy and adult dogs had a significant decrease in leukocyte and lymphocyte counts on day 7. The puppies showed a significant increase in the blastogenesis of lymphocytes after each vaccination, whereas the adult dogs had no significant changes. However, the adult dogs were divided into two groups, high responders and low responders in blastogenesis of lymphocytes. The dogs with higher or lower response in SI values on day 0 tended to show decrease or increase after the first vaccination, respectively. Since almost all dogs developed high titers of humoral antibody, it is considered that vaccination acts in an immunomodulative fashion. DTH responses to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and CPV vaccine monitored at 0, 3, and 8 weeks after the first vaccination produced strong reactions, in particular those to CPV vaccine rose significantly after vaccination and maintained the higher responses for at least 2 months. These results suggest that DTH responses to PHA and CPV vaccine are helpful to monitoring non-specific and specific immune functions in vivo, therefore, DTH could be used as simple and rapid immunologic tests in canine practice.  相似文献

The eukaryotic expression plasmid of M2e-Hsp70 is a candidate M2e-based DNA vaccine. In order to evaluate the immunization potential of this construct, Specific Pathogen Free chickens were immunized either intramuscularly or orally. Mutant Salmonella typhimurium was used as carrier for oral delivery of the M2e-Hsp70 construct. M2e-specific humoral and cellular responses were tested by ELISA and Lymphocyte Proliferation Assay, respectively. Our results indicate that both humoral and cellular immune responses are conferred against M2e-Hsp70 plasmid in either of the intramuscular or oral routes of administration; however, these responses are significantly higher in intramuscular injection in contrast to oral administration. When it comes to mass vaccination of commercial chicken flocks oral administration is preferred due to the ease of application as well as its capability of eliciting mucosal, humoral and cellular immune responses; so measurements should be taken to improve the immunization potency of our orally delivered DNA vaccine.  相似文献

运用PCR技术扩增出伪狂犬病病毒糖蛋白gD基因,将该基因定向克隆于真核表达载体pcDNA3.1+、pCI-neo中,命名重组质粒为pcD-gD、pCI-gD.以小鼠为动物模型,对构建的基因疫苗进行免疫原性的初步评价.为了证明细胞因子是否能增强基因疫苗的免疫效力,本试验用IL-15的表达质粒联合pcD-gD、pCI-gD免疫.结果表明,重组质粒组主要提高细胞免疫水平,特别是联合组中的CD8~+相对其他组别较高.重组质粒在体液免疫方面没有表现出优势,抗体滴度达不到阳性对照组的水平,但是整个抗体水平相对稳定,提示DNA疫苗诱导的抗体维持时间较长.  相似文献

白细胞介素-12对犬细小病毒VP2 DNA疫苗的免疫增强作用   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
犬细小病毒编码的VP2蛋白是该病毒重要的结构蛋白和抗原蛋白。利用VP2基因制备的DNA疫苗能够刺激机体产生免疫应答反应。为进一步提高VP2DNA疫苗的免疫应答水平,本研究在小鼠体内尝试了利用白细胞介素12(IL-12)基因表达载体提高VP2DNA疫苗的免疫应答水平。首先采用RT-PCR方法从小鼠脾淋巴细胞中分别扩增IL-12大亚基(P40)和小亚基(P35)cDNA基因;然后在真核表达载体pcDNA3.1A上通过引入内部核糖体进入位点(IRES)序列,分别将P40基因和P35基因插入到IRES序列的上下游,构建成IL-12(P40和P35双亚基)基因表达载体,pcDNA-P40-IRES-P35。将上述表达载体与本室构建的VP2表达载体通过磷酸钙方法转染HEK 293T细胞进行瞬时表达,以确定构建的表达载体能否介导相应基因在真核细胞中进行分泌表达。然后用VP2载体单免疫和VP2载体和IL-12载体共免疫方法对小鼠进行免疫(用pcDNA3.1A作为对照)。免疫后在特定时间通过ELISA方法检测小鼠血清抗VP2蛋白的抗体水平,并通过淋巴细胞增殖实验检测免疫后35d小鼠脾脏淋巴细胞增殖反应。结果表明,扩增的小鼠IL-12P40和P35亚基基因与GenBank的参考序列基本一致。Western-blot检测结果表明,重组IL-12和VP2均能够在HEK293T细胞中进行分泌性表达。ELISA检测结果表明利用IL-2载体与VP2载体共免疫小鼠,其血清中抗VP2的抗体水平明显高于VP2载体单免疫组(P〈0.01),抗体水平在第35天高达1:5120。淋巴细胞增殖试验结果表明,免疫小鼠的淋巴细胞刺激指数均明显高于对照组(P〈0.01),VP2载体与IL2载体共免疫组的刺激指数明显高于VP2载体单免疫组(P〈0.05)。由此可见,在小鼠体内,IL-12基因表达载体可明显提高CPV VP2基因疫苗的免疫应答水平。  相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) system was developed for the detection of canine parvovirus (CPV) or CPV antigen in dog faeces and two other ELISA systems were developed for the detection of CPV-specific antibodies in dog sera. The ELISA's were based on the use of CPV-specific mouse monoclonal antibodies, which recognise different epitopes of the haemagglutinin of CPV and which also neutralise the virus. A double antibody sandwich (DAS) ELISA for the detection of CPV in dog faeces was compared with the haemagglutination (HA) test. The DAS-ELISA proved to be more specific, sensitive and easier to perform than the HA assay. An indirect ELISA and a competitive ELISA for the detection of CPV-specific antibodies in dog sera were compared with the haemagglutination inhibition (HI) test. Both ELISA systems proved to be specific and easy-to-use methods for the detection of CPV-specific antibodies. The indirect ELISA, specially, proved to be more sensitive than the HI test. The higher sensitivity and specificity of the ELISA's as compared to HA and HI tests, and their ease of use, make them suitable for routine use in the serology and diagnosis of CPV infections.  相似文献

This study was designed to evaluate the prime-boost vaccination regimens as a novel immunization strategy for DNA vaccine against classical swine fever virus (CSFV). BALB/c mice were primed with the alphavirus replicon-vectored DNA vaccine pSFV1CS-E2-UL49 encoding the E2 protein of CSFV fused with the UL49 gene encoding the transduction protein VP22 of pseudorabies virus, followed by either homologous boosting with pSFV1CS-E2-UL49 or heterologous boosting with the recombinant adenovirus rAdV-E2 expressing the E2 protein or with the baculovirus-produced recombinant E2 protein (rE2) in adjuvant. The humoral and cell-mediated immune responses following prime-boost vaccination were assessed. The results showed that: (1) boosting with either rAdV-E2 or rE2 elicited high-level antibodies, whereas homologous boosting with pSFV1CS-E2-UL49 elicited low-level antibodies (below positive threshold); (2) heterologous boosting with rAdV-E2 resulted in stronger CD8+ and CD4+ T cells proliferation responses and higher stimulation indexes; and (3) heterologous boosting with rAdV-E2 induced more IFN-γ production. These results support the notion that a regimen of DNA prime-recombinant adenovirus boost enhances humoral and cell-mediated immune responses, and the DNA prime-protein boost regimen enhances humoral immune responses.  相似文献

Porcine interleukin-6 gene and CpG sequences were used as immunoadjuvants to enhance the immune responses of newborn piglets to Pseudorabies attenuated vaccine (PAV). The titer of specific antibodies to PAV, the proliferation of lymphocytes and induced IL-2 activities were all examined to identify the immune response of the piglets. The results showed that the immune responses with CpG ODN and porcine interleukin-6 gene were significantly stronger than routine immunities. The data suggests that porcine IL-6 and CpG motifs could be employed as effective immunoadjuvants to raise the humoral and cellular responses of newborn piglets to Pseudorabies attenuated vaccine.  相似文献

Fifty-five canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV) samples, 12 fecal specimens and 43 cell culture isolates, were examined for their genetic characteristics of VP2 gene. They were collected from the diseased dogs at various districts of Japan during 27 years from 1980 to 2006. A fragment of VP2 gene was analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism assay and DNA sequencing. The original antigenic type 2 of CPV (CPV-2) was no longer found in the samples since 1984, and two antigenic variants CPV-2a and CPV-2b replaced CPV-2 as predominant types for about 5 years from 1982. A new genetic variant of prototype CPV-2a with non-synonymous substitution at the VP2 amino acid residue 297 from Ser to Ala was first detected in 1987. New CPV-2b with the same amino acid substitution at position 297 as new CPV-2a was also detected from the samples collected in 1997. Since then new CPV-2b has been the predominant CPV over the field of Japan. Several additional amino acid substitutions were detected in the VP2 gene of some recent CPV strains. Neither CPV-2c(a), CPV-2c(b), nor "Glu-426" of the antigenic variants previously found outside the country was detected in any samples tested. Reactivity of new CPV-2a and 2b variants against antibodies produced by the current vaccine products was determined by a cross hemagglutination-inhibition test. The recent field CPV isolates reacted more efficiently to the antibodies produced in dogs vaccinated with the new CPV-2b vaccine strain than the conventional CPV-2 vaccine strain.  相似文献

An experiment was conducted to assess the immune responses of ducks to duck plague (DP) vaccinations employing one commercial and one laboratory-adapted (LA) DP vaccines. Virus neutralisation and leucocyte migration-inhibition tests were conducted at regular intervals before and after vaccinations. Similarly, ducks in vaccinated and control groups were subjected to challenge infection with virulent DP virus.The commercial vaccine yielded a poor immune response and partial protection on challenge whereas satisfactory responses were obtained in ducks receiving two doses of LA vaccine. The humoral as well as cellular factors were stimulated indicating possible involvement of both the immune responses in the protection from duck plague.  相似文献

The influenza virus vaccines that are commercially-available for humans, horses and pigs in the United States are inactivated, whole-virus or subunit vaccines. While these vaccines may decrease the incidence and severity of clinical disease, they do not consistently provide complete protection from virus infection. DNA vaccines are a novel alternative to conventional vaccination strategies, and offer many of the potential benefits of live virus vaccines without their risks. In particular, because immunogens are synthesized de novo within DNA transfected cells, antigen can be presented by MHC class I and II molecules, resulting in stimulation of both humoral and cellular immune responses. Influenza virus has been used extensively as a model pathogen in DNA vaccine studies in mice, chickens, ferrets, pigs, horses and non-human primates, and clinical trials of DNA-based influenza virus vaccines are underway in humans. Our studies have focused on gene gun delivery of DNA vaccines against equine and swine influenza viruses in mice, ponies and pigs, including studies employing co-administration of interleukin-6 DNA as an approach for modulating and adjuvanting influenza virus hemagglutinin-specific immune responses. The results indicate that gene gun administration of plasmids encoding hemagglutinin genes from influenza viruses is an effective method for priming and/or inducing virus-specific immune responses, and for providing partial to complete protection from challenge infection in mice, horses and pigs. In addition, studies of interleukin-6 DNA co-administration in mice clearly demonstrate the potential for this approach to enhance vaccine efficacy and protection.  相似文献

Cryptosporidium andersoni parasited in the abomasum has been demonstrated as a cause of reduction of milk production in dairy cow. In this study, a novel chimeric DNA vaccine pVAX1-AB was constructed and the efficacy against Cryptosporidium parvum was determined. BALB/c mice were divided into 3 groups and immunized with DNA vaccine expressing the oocyst wall protein, AB protein of C. andersoni, the recombinant plasmid containing the AB gene, respectively. After inoculation of 1 × 10(6) oocysts of C. parvum, the humoral and cellular immune responses were detected. Experimental results showed that the recombinant plasmid can induce corresponding specific antibody response, simultaneously influenced cellular immune responses, and provided greater protection rate (48.6%) than the other groups. These results indicated that chimeric DNA vaccine has a potential in Cryptosporidium vaccine development.  相似文献

Mycobacteriosis, caused by numerous Mycobacterium spp., can be a devastating disease of both wild and cultured fishes. As no efficacious treatment exists, a vaccine against fish mycobacteriosis is essential for prevention and control of this disease. Thus, a DNA vaccine was constructed using the Mycobacterium marinum Ag85A gene that encodes one of the major secreted fibronectin-binding proteins of Mycobacterium spp., which was isolated and then subcloned into a commercially available eukaryotic expression vector. Juvenile hybrid striped bass (Morone saxatilis x M. chrysops), a species known to be particularly susceptible to this disease, were immunized by i.m. and i.p. injection with the resulting construct and as a result produced specific immune responses towards the Ag85A. Increasing concentrations of humoral antibodies to the Ag85A antigen were generated in all DNA vaccine groups, while macrophage phagocytosis and respiratory burst functions failed to exhibit upregulation after vaccination. In addition, fish receiving the DNA vaccine developed a protective response to a live M. marinum challenge 90 days post-inoculation, as demonstrated by increased survival of vaccinated fish over control fish and by reduced splenic bacterial counts in vaccinated fish. Furthermore, humoral immune responses and protective effects were significantly increased at higher vaccine doses using the i.m. injection route.  相似文献

为了提高甲型H1N1流感病毒HA基因DNA疫苗的免疫原性,本研究将流感病毒rPan09(HA和NA来自A/California/04/09,其余6个片段来自PR8的重组病毒)的HA基因通过人工合成的方法将其密码子优化为哺乳动物体内偏嗜性密码子opti-HA,同未优化的rPan09的HA基因分别与真核表达载体pCAGGS连接构成重组质粒pCA-optiHA和pCA-HA转染293T细胞,48 h后采用间接免疫荧光的方法检测HA基因的体外表达情况,结果显示重组质粒pCA-optiHA的蛋白表达量明显高于pCA-HA。为评价这两种重组质粒的免疫及保护效力,选取6~8周龄雌性BALB/c小鼠,将质粒pCA-HA、pCA-optiHA以100μg/只的剂量,进行后腿肌肉多点注射,同时设立空载体pCAGGS对照,共免疫3次,每次间隔2周。结果表明DNA疫苗pCA-optiHA可显著提高小鼠的体液免疫和细胞免疫应答水平。三免2周后用107.45EID50的rPan09采用滴鼻方式进行攻毒,用Real-time PCR及制作肺组织石蜡切片检测DNA疫苗的保护效力。结果表明,pCA-optiHA免疫组的保护效力明显高于pCA-HA免疫组。本研究为进一步研究和设计有效的甲型流感病毒DNA疫苗奠定了基础。  相似文献

DNA vaccine has been tested for protection against foot-and-mouth disease. However, the relatively low efficacy of DNA vaccine in inducing immune responses in large animals has restricted its practical use. Interleukin-1 plays an essential role in amplifying both the cellular and humoral immune responses to foreign antigens, and may therefore represent a good candidate as an adjuvant of DNA vaccines. Since the inflammatory activity of IL-I may restrict its application in DNA vaccine treatment, we explored the possibilities of augmenting immune responses without unwanted inflammatory effects using the IL-1beta fragment (amino acids (aa) 163-171), which is essential for IL-1 receptor-1 binding. The DNA fragment encoding the human IL-1beta fragment (aa 163-171) was fused to foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) DNA vaccine, and injected into mice to analyse its immune response. Compared with control mice receiving FMDV DNA vaccine alone, significant increases in the FMDV-specific antibody response and also in T cell proliferation were observed in mice receiving IL-1beta (163-171)-FMDV. These results suggested that DNA fragment encoding IL-1beta 163-171 peptide might represent a good candidate for an adjuvant of FMDV DNA vaccine.  相似文献

In order to develop novel immunoadjuvants to boost immune response of conventional vaccines, experiments were conducted to investigate the regulating effects of porcine interleukin-6 gene and CpG motifs as the molecular adjuvants on immune responses of mice that were co-inoculated with trivalent vaccines against Swine fever, the Pasteurellosis and Erysipelas suis. Synthetic oligodeoxynuleotides containing CpG motifs were ligated into pUC18, forming recombinant pUC18-CpG plasmid. Eukaryotic plasmid expressing porcine interleukin-6 (VPIL-6) were also constructed as molecular adjuvants in an attempt to enhance levels of immune responses of mice co-administered with the trivalent vaccines in this paper. The cellular and humoral immune responses of mice were systematically analysed, and the experimental results were observed that the number of white blood cells, monocytes, granuloytes and lymphocytes significantly increased, respectively, in the mice immunized with VPIL-6, compared with those of the control; the IgG content and titre of specific antibodies to the trivalent vaccine mounted remarkably in the sera from the VPIL-6 vaccinated mice; the proliferation of lymphocytes and induced IL-2 activities were significantly increased in the vaccinated groups. The above-mentioned immune responses of mice co-inoculated with pUC18-CpG plasmid were significantly stronger than those of co-inoculated with pUC18 plasmid, suggesting that the immunostimulatory effect of oligodeoxynuleotides CpG is closely connected with the number of CpG motifs. These results suggest that the porcine IL-6 gene and CpG motifs could be employed as effective immunoadjuvants to elevate immunity to conventional vaccines.  相似文献

犬细小病毒编码的VP2蛋白是该病毒主要抗原蛋白。研究证实由VP2基因制备的DNA疫苗能够刺激机体产生免疫应答反应。为提高VP2DNA疫苗的免疫原性,本研究在小鼠体内尝试了利用犬白细胞介素2(cIL-2)基因增强VP2DNA疫苗免疫应答的研究。通过RT-PCR方法从犬脾淋巴细胞中分别扩增含终止密码子和不合终止密码子的cIL-2cDNA基因,然后将基因插入到真核表达载体pcDNA3.1中,分别构建成非融合的和与Myc/His融合的clL-2基因真核分泌型表达载体,pcDNA-cIL-2和pcDNA-cIL-2/MH。将pcDNA-oIL-2/MH表达栽体通过磷酸钙方法转染HEK293T细胞进行瞬时表达,以确定构建的表达栽体能否介导cIL-2在真核细胞中进行分泌表达。然后用VP2表达载体(pcDNA-CD5sp-VP2,本室构建)单注射和VP2/IL-2表达载体共注射对小鼠进行免疫(用pcD-NA3.1栽体作为阴性对照)。免疫后通过ELISA方法检测免疫后不同时期小鼠血清VP2的抗体水平,并通过细胞增殖试验检测免疫后小鼠脾脏淋巴细胞的增殖反应,用ELISA方法测定小鼠淋巴细胞γ干扰素的表达水平。试验结果表明,扩增的小鼠cIL-2基因与GenBank的参考序列一致,构建的cIL-2表达载体能够介导重组cIL-2在HEK293T细胞中进行分泌表达。免疫结果显示,利用cIL-2/VP2表达载体共免疫小鼠,免疫后35d血清中VP2的抗体水平达到1:5120,明显高于VP2表达载体单免疫组(P〈0.01)。淋巴细胞增殖试验表明,2组免疫小鼠的淋巴细胞刺激指数均明显高于阴性对照组(P〈0.01),共免疫组的刺激指数又明显高于单免疫组(P〈0.05)。共免疫小鼠淋巴细胞7干扰素的表达水平明显高于单免疫组和阴性对照组(P〈0.01)。由此可见,cIL-2表达载体可明显提高CPVVP2基因疫苗的免疫应答水平。  相似文献

Little is known about the humoral and, especially, cell-mediated immune response in pigs exposed to Lawsonia intracellularis. The objectives of this study were to investigate the onset and duration of fecal shedding, cell-mediated and humoral immune responses in pigs after challenge with a pathogenic isolate or a commercial live vaccine strain of L. intracellularis. Twenty-four 5-week-old pigs were exposed to 4.4x10(9) organisms of a pathogenic L. intracellularis isolate PHE/MN1-00 (10 pigs), a L. intracellularis live attenuated vaccine strain (10 pigs) or sham inoculum (4 pigs). Fecal, serum and whole blood samples were collected from all animals before exposure and weekly up to 13 weeks post inoculation and tested by PCR, immunoperoxidase monolayer assay serology and an interferon-gamma assay, respectively. One animal from each group was euthanized on day 22 post exposure to confirm infection. Humoral and cell-mediated immune responses were initially detected 2 weeks after exposure in pigs challenged with the pathogenic isolate, and 5 and 4 weeks, respectively, in pigs exposed to the modified-live vaccine group. Humoral and cell-mediated immune responses were still detected in some pigs from both L. intracellularis exposed groups 13 weeks after exposure. Fecal shedding was initially detected 1 week and lasted, intermittently, 12 weeks post exposure in pigs challenged with the pathogenic isolate, while fecal shedding was first detected 2 weeks and lasted, also intermittently, 9 weeks after exposure to the vaccine. In summary, both pathogenic isolate challenged and vaccine exposed pigs demonstrated long-term shedding of and immune responses to L. intracellularis.  相似文献
