Induction of IgE antibody production in mice with different DPT-vaccine preparations.

چکیده
Antibody production in mice after immunization with diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) vaccine was investigated. Six lots of the vaccine produced in the same year by six manufacturers in Japan were chosen. Production of IgE antibody specific to either diphtheria or tetanus toxoid varied among vaccine preparations used, although there was no apparent difference in IgG antibody production after immunization. In addition, the level of IgE antibody specific to diphtheria toxoid was correlated with that of IgG1 antibody and inversely with that of IgG2 antibody. These results suggest that each vaccine preparation may induce a distinct pattern of antibody production and, therefore, the type of immune response induced by vaccination may vary among vaccine preparations.

Improved Immunogenicity of Tetanus Toxoid by Brucella abortus S19 LPS Adjuvant
Background: Adjuvants are used to increase the immunogenicity of new generation vaccines, especially those based on recombinant proteins. Despite immunostimulatory properties, the use of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as an adjuvant has been hampered due to its toxicity and pyrogenicity. Brucella abortus LPS is less toxic and has no pyrogenic properties compared to LPS from other gram nega...

Recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (rCTB) which is produced by Bacillus brevis carrying pNU212-CTB acts as a mucosal adjuvant capable of enhancing host immune responses specific to unrelated, mucosally co-administered vaccine antigens. When mice were administered intranasally with diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) combination vaccine consisting of diphtheria toxoid (DTd), tetanus toxoid (TTd)...

Background: Several adjuvants have been evaluated for vaccine formulations but alu-minum salts will continue to be used for many years due to their safety, low cost and adjuvanticity with different antigens. Two commonly used aluminum adjuvants, alumi-num hydroxide and aluminum phosphate have different adjuvanticity properties. Com-mercial recombinant protein hepatitis B vaccines containing alu...

Introduction: The development of an effective vaccine against Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is still a target of intensive vaccine research. The HCV envelope proteins E1 and E2 which can induce broadly neutralizing antibodies are the major candidate for this purpose. Different types of expression systems have been used to express these glycoproteins. In this study, an expression system using Pichia p...
