Oral immunization with L-forms of Vibrio cholerae in human volunteers.
Oral administration of heat-inactivated lysates of Vibrio cholerae Ogawa L-forms elicited significantly high coproantibody, serum indirect hemagglutinating antibody, and vibriocidal antibody responses in human volunteers, against both homologous and heterologous subtypes of V. cholerae and V. El Tor. Five oral biweekly doses produced an adequate antibody response which persisted for at least 6 ...
متن کاملCell-mediated immunity after oral immunization with ribonucleic acid-protein fractions of Vibrio cholerae L-form lysates.
Oral administration of a single dose of ribonucleic acid-protein fraction of lysates of Vibrio cholerae subtype Ogawa L-forms induced an increase in cell-mediated immunity in rabbits. This was demonstrated by an increase in leukocyte migration inhibition in peripheral blood leukocytes, in macrophages migration inhibition, and in microbicidal activity against Listeria monocytogenes in peritoneal...
متن کاملSuccessful colonization and immunization of adult rabbits by oral inoculation with Vibrio cholerae O1.
Adult rabbits were inoculated orally (or duodenally) with virulent Vibrio cholerae O1. Jejunal colonization occurred only when hypoperistalsis was induced at the time of inoculation by tincture of opium given intraperitoneally (or by temporary ileal obstruction). For oral inoculation, prior neutralization of gastric acid was also required. Inoculation with 10(9) V. cholerae caused jejunal colon...
متن کاملPassive oral immunization by egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) to Vibrio cholerae effectively prevents cholera.
In an attempt to prepare egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) to treat and prevent cholera, hens were immunized by a mixture of heat- or formalin-killed Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 organisms, or by the recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (CTB). The IgYs were partially purified from egg yolk and orally administered to suckling mice before or after challenge with live O1 or O139 cells. The anti-O1 and O...
متن کاملProtective immunity against Clostridium difficile toxin A induced by oral immunization with a live, attenuated Vibrio cholerae vector strain.
Clostridium difficile causes pseudomembranous colitis through the action of Rho-modifying proteins, toxins A and B. Antibodies directed against C. difficile toxin A prevent or limit C. difficile-induced colitis. We engineered plasmid pETR14, containing the hlyB and hlyD genes of the Escherichia coli hemolysin operon, to express a fusion protein containing 720 amino acid residues from the nontox...
