Induction of protective immunity against malaria by priming-boosting immunization with recombinant cold-adapted influenza and modified vaccinia Ankara viruses expressing a CD8+-T-cell epitope derived from the circumsporozoite protein of Plasmodium yoelii.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We immunized mice with an attenuated (cold-adapted) influenza virus followed by an attenuated vaccinia virus (modified vaccinia virus Ankara), both expressing a CD8(+)-T-cell epitope derived from malaria sporozoites. This vaccination regimen elicited high levels of protection against malaria. This is the first time that the vaccine efficacy of a recombinant cold-adapted influenza virus vector expressing a foreign antigen has been evaluated.

Recombinant attenuated Toxoplasma gondii expressing the Plasmodium yoelii circumsporozoite protein provides highly effective priming for CD8+ T cell-dependent protective immunity against malaria.
The protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii elicits strong cell-mediated immunity against itself as well as nonspecific resistance against other pathogens and tumors. For this reason, we asked whether recombinant Toxoplasma could be utilized as an effective vaccine vehicle for inducing immunity against heterologous microbial infections. The circumsporozoite protein (PyCSP) of Plasmodium yoelii was...

To enhance the efficacy of DNA malaria vaccines, we evaluated the effect on protection of immunizing with various combinations of DNA, recombinant vaccinia virus, and a synthetic peptide. Immunization of BALB/c mice with a plasmid expressing Plasmodium yoelii (Py) circumsporozoite protein (CSP) induces H-2Kd-restricted CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses and CD8+ T cell- and interferon ...

Subcutaneous administration in mice of recombinant Sindbis viruses expressing a class I major histocompatibility complex-restricted 9-mer epitope of the Plasmodium yoelii circumsporozoite protein or the nucleoprotein of influenza virus induces a large epitope-specific CD8(+) T-cell response. This immunization also elicits a high degree of protection against infection with malaria or influenza A...

Extensive studies on protective immunity to rodent malaria provided the basis for the current experiments in which mice were immunized with recombinant (re) influenza and vaccinia viruses expressing selected sequences of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Mice of different H-2 haplotypes immunized with re influenza viruses expressing the immun...

With the aim to develop an efficient and cost-effective approach to control malaria, we have generated porcine parvovirus-like particles (PPV-VLPs) carrying the CD8(+) T cell epitope (SYVPSAEQI) of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein from Plasmodium yoelii fused to the PPV VP2 capsid protein (PPV-PYCS), and tested in prime/boost protocols with poxvirus vectors for efficacy in a rodent malaria mod...
