Oligodeoxynucleotides containing the cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) motif (CpG-ODNs) have been shown to induce T(H)1 immune responses in animals. Since the sequences of CpG-ODNs that induce T(H)1 responses are considered to vary among animal species, it is necessary to identify effective CpG-ODNs in each animal. In order to identify the sequences of CpG-ODNs that induce T(H)1 responses in dogs, mRNA expression and protein production of IFN-gamma were examined in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy dogs treated with 11 kinds of synthetic CpG-ODNs. One of the 11 CpG-ODNs (No. 2 CpG-ODN, 5'-GGTGCATCGATGCAGGGGGG-3') was shown to significantly increase mRNA expression and protein production of IFN-gamma in canine PBMCs in a manner dependent on the sequence of the CpG motif. This CpG-ODN also enhanced the expression of IL-12 p40 mRNA in canine PBMCs, whereas expression of IL-12 p35, IL-18, and IL-4 mRNAs was not induced by this CpG-ODN. These results indicate that this CpG-ODN was able to produce IFN-gamma by induction of T(H)1-skewed immune response in dogs. CpG-ODNs may be useful for inducing prophylactic and therapeutic immunity against allergic diseases, viral infection, and tumors in dogs. 相似文献

A live attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Montevideo (SM) mutant JOL1599 was constructed by deletion of virulence-associated genes. The protective efficacy and immune response profiles of chickens immunized with JOL1599 were investigated. Immunized chickens demonstrated significant increases in plasma IgG and lymphocyte proliferative responses (P ≤ 0.05). Increased levels of IL-6, INF-γ, and IL-12 were also observed. Immunized birds strongly responded to infection by rapid stimulation of a CD4+ subset of T cells. Organ bacterial recovery assay revealed a significant reduction in the challenge strain among immunized birds. Multiple doses of JOL1599 enhanced the immune responses of the birds as revealed by ascending trends of the immunological profiles. These findings indicate that immunization of chickens with JOL1599 may provide protection against Salmonella Montevideo infection via induction of IL-6, INF-γ, and IL-12 protective cytokines, which in turn triggers conducive humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. 相似文献

The proliferation responses of antigen-specific lymphocytes from various anatomical sites were studied in dairy goats locally immunized with heat-killed Staphylococcus aureus (HKS). Animals were inoculated three times subcutaneously in the right udder with HKS at 1 month intervals. One week following the last inoculation, prescapular, mesenteric and ipsilateral (draining) and contralateral (non-draining) suprammammary lymph nodes were collected and the cells assayed in 3- and 6-day cultures to determine the immune proliferative responses of antigen-specific lymphocytes to HKS and the polyclonal T cell mitogen phytohemagglutinin (PHA). The cells from draining and non-draining supramammary lymph nodes responded to HKS in 3-day cultures. Peripheral lymph nodes, such as the prescapular, showed similar responses. In contrast, mesenteric lymph nodes responded optimally in 6-day cultures, notably to lower concentrations of the antigen. Cells from all lymph nodes tested showed increased responses to PHA in immunized animals, although non-draining lymph nodes demonstrated a greater response to the T cell mitogen than those of draining lymph nodes. These results suggest that unilateral introduction of Staphylococcus cell antigens to the supramammary region can induce an anamnestic response in ipsilateral as well as contralateral supramammary lymph nodes and other distant peripheral lymphoid organs. Furthermore, these data indicate that cells from intestinal lymph nodes respond differently from those of peripheral lymph nodes, suggesting the presence of a unique gastrointestinal lymphoid cell circulation in goats. Concomitant peripheral responses may be attributed to memory cell migration or to antigen leakage and relocation to distant sites from the inoculated region. Analysis with PHA suggests a difference in general responsiveness and perhaps, immunocompetence, by lymphocyte populations in various lymphoid tissues of immunized animals. 相似文献

Toxoplasma gondii is one of the most common parasitic pathogens in humans and warm-blooded animals, causing toxoplasmosis. One of the efficient ways to control this disease is immunization. In this study, two recombinant pseudorabies virus (PRV) expressing TgSAG1 (rPRV-SAG1) and TgMIC3 (rPRV-MIC3) based on the PRV vaccine strain were developed by homologous recombination and used for immunizing BALB/c mice. Ninety BALB/c mice were randomly divided into five groups including four experimental groups (inoculated twice in 4 weeks interval with PRV TK-/gG-/EGFP+, rPRV-SAG1, rPRV-MIC3, rPRV-SAG1+rPRV-MIC3, respectively) and one control group (inoculated with medium). All mice vaccinated with rPRV developed a high level of specific antibody responses against T. gondii lysate antigen (TLA), a strong increase of the splenocyte proliferative response, and significant levels of IFN-γ and IL-2 production. These results demonstrated that rPRV could induce significant humoral and cellular Th1 immune responses. Moreover, rPRV immunization induced partial protection against a lethal challenge with T. gondii RH strain, and neutralizing antibodies against PRV in a BALB/c mouse model. The mice immunized with the rPRV-SAG1 and rPRV-MIC3 cocktail could develop higher T. gondii-specific IgG antibodies and lymphocyte proliferative responses and conferred more efficient protection against T. gondii challenge. These results suggested that expression of protective antigens of T. gondii in PRV is a novel approach towards the development of a vaccine against both animal pseudorabies and toxoplasmosis. 相似文献

Chronic Fasciola hepatica infection is correlated with the development of a T helper (Th2)-predominant immune response. To determine whether immunostimulatory CpG-containing oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG-ODN) or Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA), known to promote a Th1 (T helper 1) immune responses, could provide protection from F. hepatica infection, total homogenate (TH) of F. hepatica mixed with CpG-ODN or FCA were injected subcutaneously (s.c.) into Wistar rats. A F. hepatica-specific Th1-predominant immune response was induced with CpG-ODN or FCA in lymph nodes of immunized animals. Lymph node cells from TH-CpG-ODN or TH-FCA immunized rats showed increased antigen-specific proliferation with high levels of INFgamma, compared to lymphocytes from rats injected with TH alone. In contrast, these two groups of immunized animals did not modify IL-4 release by draining lymph node cells, when they were subsequently stimulated with TH in vitro. However, a significant reduction in the burden of flukes (76.7%) was only observed in rats immunized with TH-FCA. Conversely, immunization of rats with TH-CpG-ODN did not promote protection against the parasite. Therefore, even though CpG-ODNs and FCA induced Th1 type responses, only FCA provided a significant protection to rats infected with F. hepatica. 相似文献

The (T-cell) immune responses of two different broiler lines to a primary Eimeria acervulina infection were investigated. The lines used were a commercial fast-growing broiler line and a slow-growing type of broiler as used in organic farming. Seven-day-old broilers of both lines were infected with 5 x 10(4) oocysts of E. acervulina. The animals were weighed and a species-specific real-time PCR was used to quantify the total amount of parasites in the duodenum. In the fast-growing line, a lower parasite load was seen from day 4 onwards compared to the slow-growing line. In both lines the intestinal peak of Eimeria DNA was observed at day 5 post infection (p.i.). In the duodenum no increase in CD4(+) T-cells was found in both infected lines, but a fast increase in CD8(+) T-cells was observed in the fast-growing line. At day 3 p.i. in the slow-growing broilers an IL-18 mRNA response was observed. At day 4 p.i. strong IFN-gamma and IL-8 mRNA responses were found in both lines. No IL-4 mRNA responses were found in the duodenum. In conclusion, both lines have different growth rates and control and infected conditions. Based on the kinetics of observed phenomena a primary infection with E. acervulina in 7-day-old broilers seems to generate an early CD8alpha(+) response in fast-growing broilers compared to the slow-growing broilers. This difference in immune reaction after an E. acervulina infection could result in a different Eimeria load in the duodenum. 相似文献

This study evaluates the immune responses of single avian influenza virus (AIV) HA DNA vaccine immunization using attenuated Salmonella enterica sv. Typhimurium as an oral vaccine carrier and intramuscular (IM) DNA injection. One-day-old specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chicks immunized once by oral gavage with 10(9) Salmonella colony-forming units containing plasmid expression vector encoding the HA gene of A/Ck/Malaysia/5858/04 (H5N1) (pcDNA3.1.H5) did not show any clinical manifestations. Serum hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titer samples collected from the IM immunized chickens were low compared to those immunized with S. typhimurium.pcDNA3.1.H5. The highest average antibody titers were detected on day 35 post immunization for both IM and S. typhimurium.pcDNA3.1.H5 immunized groups, at 4.0±2.8 and 51.2±7.5, respectively. S. typhimurium.pcDNA3.1.H5 also elicited both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of immunized chickens as early as day 14 after immunization, at 20.5±2.0 and 22.9±1.9%, respectively. Meanwhile, the CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in chickens vaccinated intramuscularly were low at 5.9±0.9 and 8.5±1.3%, respectively. Immunization of chickens with S. typhimurium.pcDNA3.1.H5 enhanced IL-1β, IL-12β, IL-15 and IL-18 expressions in spleen although no significant differences were recorded in chickens vaccinated via IM and orally with S. typhimurium and S. typhimurium.pcDNA3.1. Hence, single oral administrations of the attenuated S. typhimurium containing pcDNA3.1.H5 showed antibody, T cell and Th1-like cytokine responses against AIV in chickens. Whether the T cell response induced by vaccination is virus-specific and whether vaccination protects against AIV infection requires further study. 相似文献

Inflammatory airway disease (IAD) is a common disorder of performance horses and is associated with poor performance and accumulation of mucus and inflammatory cells in lower airway secretions. Horses with IAD frequently have increased relative counts of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF); less commonly relative counts of eosinophils and/or mast cells may be increased. The aetiopathogenesis of IAD is unknown and may involve innate and/or acquired immune responses to various factors including respirable dust constituents, micro-organisms, noxious gases and unconditioned air. The molecular pathways and role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of IAD remain poorly defined and it is unknown whether polarised T cell responses occur in the disease, as have been reported to occur in equine recurrent airway obstruction and asthma in humans. Elucidating cytokine responses that develop in horses with IAD may allow a greater understanding of the possible aetiopathological pathway(s) involved and could contribute to development of novel treatments. We compared the mRNA expression of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-8, IL-13, IL-17 and IL-23 in cell pellets extracted from BALF of horses with IAD (n=21) and horses free of respiratory tract disease (n=17). Horses with IAD had significantly increased levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-23 mRNA; no significant differences in the other cytokine mRNAs were detected. The results of this study indicate that IAD of horses is associated with increased mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in BALF cells, which may reflect stimulation of the innate immune responses to inhaled antigens. There was no evidence of a polarised T-cell cytokine response suggesting hypersensitivity responses may not be involved in the aetiopathogenesis of IAD. 相似文献

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the most devastating animal diseases, affecting all cloven-hoofed domestic and wild animal species. Previous studies from our group using DNA vaccines encoding FMD virus (FMDV) B and T cell epitopes targeted to antigen presenting cells, allowed demonstrating total protection from FMDV homologous challenge in those animals efficiently primed for both humoral and cellular specific responses (Borrego et al. Antivir Res 92:359-363, 2011). In this study, a new DNA vaccine prototype expected to induce stronger and cross-reactive immune responses against FMDV which was designed by making two main modifications: i) adding a new B-cell epitope from the O-serotype to the B and T-cell epitopes from the C-serotype and ii) using a dual promoter plasmid that allowed inserting a new cistron encoding the anti-apoptotic Bcl-xL gene under the control of the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) of encephalomyocarditis virus aiming to increase and optimize the antigen presentation of the encoded FMDV epitopes after in vivo immunization. In vitro studies showed that Bcl-xL significantly prolonged the survival of DNA transfected cells (p?<?0.001). Accordingly, vaccination of Swiss out-bred mice with the dual promoter plasmid increased the total IgG responses induced against each of the FMDV epitopes however no significant differences observed between groups. The humoral immune response was polarized through IgG2a in all vaccination groups (p?<?0.05); except peptide T3A; in correspondence with the Th1-like response observed, a clear bias towards the induction of specific IFN-γ secreting CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses was also observed, being significantly higher (p?<?0.05) in the group of mice immunized with the plasmid co-expressing Bcl-xL and the FMDV B and T cell epitopes. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune responses of a SAG1 and MIC3 vaccine cocktail in BALB/c mice. Ninety-six BALB/c mice were randomly divided into eight groups, including three plasmid DNA vaccine groups (pcDNA-MIC3, pcDNA-SAG1, pcDNA-MIC3+pcDNA-SAG1), three recombinant pseudotype baculovirus vaccine groups (BV-G-MIC3, BV-G-SAG1, BV-G-SAG1+BV-G-MIC3) and two control groups (PBS and BV-G-EGFP). All groups were immunized intramuscularly twice at three-week intervals. The production of anti-Toxoplasma gondii lysate antigen (TLA) antibodies, lymphoproliferation, levels of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 and the survival time were monitored after vaccination. The results showed that immunization of BALB/c mice with MIC3 and SAG1 vaccines stimulated both the cellular and humoral immune responses with the production of anti-T. gondii TLA antibodies. The vaccine cocktails of pcDNA-MIC3+pcDNA-SAG1 or BV-G-SAG1+BV-G-MIC3 induced significantly higher immunogenicity than a single-gene vaccine (P<0.05). Splenocytes from the immunized mice significantly proliferated in response to the TLA and released interferon (IFN)-γ (P<0.05). However, the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 in the sera of the immunized mice were not significantly different from those of the controls (P>0.05). Immunization with the vaccine cocktail (BV-G-SAG1+BV-G-MIC3) in mice significantly prolonged survival (50%; P<0.05) against a lethal challenge of T. gondii (RH tachyzoites), while all mice in the other immunized groups and control groups died within 20 and 4 days post-infection, respectively. Furthermore, the recombinant pseudotype baculovirus vaccines induced better immunogenicity than the plasmid DNA vaccines (P<0.05). These results suggest that an excellent vector-mediated vaccine cocktail strategy might be used to develop a new generation of vaccines against T. gondii infection. 相似文献

Toxoplasma gondii rhomboid protein 1 (TgROM1) is a potential vaccine candidate against toxoplasmosis
Infection with the intracellular protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii causes serious public health problems and is of great economic importance worldwide. The rhomboid proteins which are responsible for adhesion and invasion of host cells have been suggested as vaccine candidates against toxoplasmosis. A DNA vaccine (pVAX-ROM1) encoding T. gondii rhomboid protein 1 (TgROM1) gene was constructed and the immune response and protective efficacy of this vaccine against lethal challenge in BALB/c mice were evaluated. The results indicated that specific antibody and lymphocyte proliferative responses were elicited in mice receiving pVAX-ROM1. The production levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-10, as well as the percentage of CD4(+) cells in mice vaccinated with pVAX-ROM1 were significantly increased respectively, compared to controls receiving either pVAX1 alone or PBS. After lethal challenge, the mice immunized with pVAX-ROM1 showed an increased survival time compared with the mice in the controls. Our data suggested that a DNA vaccine pVAX-ROM1 encoding T. gondii rhomboid protein 1 triggered strong humoral and cellular responses, and prolonged survival time against T. gondii infection in BALB/c mice. 相似文献
