چکیده

background: different methods have been used for bcg vaccination. alginate microspheres are useful in delivery of vaccines to the gastrointestinal tract by oral route. objective: to compare the immune response following oral microencapsulated and subcutaneous (sc) route administration of bcg vaccine in balb/c mice. methods: alginate microspheres were produced by an internal emulsification method within olive oil. four groups of mice were studied, including two groups receiving oral gavages of microencapsulated and free bcg, one receiving sc injection of bcg, and a control group. t cell proliferation, specific anti-bcg total igg, and igg subclasses (igg1 and igg2a) were compared between groups 5 and 12 weeks after vaccination. results: the best result was achieved using oral microencapsulated form in comparison with oral bcg alone. conclusion: delivery of oral bcg with alginate microspheres is an effective way to induce immune response in balb/c mice.

Immunization Against Cutaneous Leishmaniasis by Alginate Microspheres Loaded With Autoclaved Leishmania Major (ALM) and Quillaja Saponins

Leishmania antigens are weak immunogens and need to be potentiated by various adjuvants and delivery systems. Alginate microspheres as an antigen delivery system and Quillaja saponins (QS) as an immunoadjuvant have been used to enhance the immune response against Autoclaved Leishmania major (ALM). Microspheres were prepared by an emulsification technique and characterized for size, encapsulatio...

Evaluation of the immune response following a short oral vaccination schedule with hepatitis B antigen encapsulated into alginate-coated chitosan nanoparticles.

The purpose of this work was to assess the ability of recombinant hepatitis B vaccine, encapsulated in alginate-coated chitosan nanoparticles, to induce local and systemic immune responses following oral vaccination. The antigen was administered either alone or in combination with the immunopotentiator, synthetic oligodeoxynucleotide containing immunostimulatory CpG motif (CpG ODN) as adjuvant,...

Cross-protective immunity of mice induced by oral immunization with pneumococcal surface adhesin a encapsulated in microspheres.

The global use of a capsular polysaccharide-based pneumococcal vaccine has been limited because of serotype-specific protection and poor effectiveness in individuals with low immunocompetency. The mucosal immune system develops earlier in infants and lasts longer in the elderly than does the systemic immune system. Furthermore, mucosal immunization is beneficial for AIDS patients, because human...
