Meningococcal Outer Membrane Vesicle Composition-Dependent Activation of the Innate Immune Response.
Meningococcal outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) have been extensively investigated and successfully implemented as vaccines. They contain pathogen-associated molecular patterns, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS), capable of triggering innate immunity. However, Neisseria meningitidis contains an extremely potent hexa-acylated LPS, leading to adverse effects when its OMVs are applied as vaccines. T...
متن کاملRegulation of receptor-dependent activation of the innate immune response.
In the United States, >750,000 patients annually are thought to be at high risk for developing septic shock, with mortality rates reaching 60%. Thus, huge societal and financial costs are associated with this syndrome. Because of the high incidence and poor prognosis of septic shock, basic research has focused on the innate immune system for >2 decades. The pathophysiology of severe sepsis/shoc...
متن کاملAcinetobacter baumannii Outer Membrane Vesicles Elicit a Potent Innate Immune Response via Membrane Proteins
Acinetobacter baumannii is increasingly becoming a major nosocomial pathogen. This opportunistic pathogen secretes outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) that interact with host cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of A. baumannii OMVs to elicit a pro-inflammatory response in vitro and the immunopathology in response to A. baumannii OMVs in vivo. OMVs derived from A. baumannii AT...
متن کاملHuman T-cell responses after vaccination with the Norwegian group B meningococcal outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
We have analyzed human T-cell responses in parallel with serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody levels after systemic vaccination with the Norwegian group B Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane vesicle (OMV) vaccine. Ten adult volunteers, with no or very low levels of serum IgG antibodies against meningococci, received three doses intramuscularly of the OMV vaccine (at weeks 0, 6, and 46). T-ce...
متن کاملImmunogenicity and safety of a combination of two serogroup B meningococcal outer membrane vesicle vaccines.
MenBvac and MeNZB are safe and efficacious vaccines against serogroup B meningococcal disease. MenBvac is prepared from a B:15:P1.7,16 meningococcal strain (strain 44/76), and MeNZB is prepared from a B:4:P1.7-2,4 strain (strain NZ98/254). At 6-week intervals, healthy adults received three doses of MenBvac (25 microg), MeNZB (25 microg), or the MenBvac and MeNZB (doses of 12.5 microg of each va...
