The toxicity of Shiga toxins (Stx) depends on the binding of their B subunits to carbohydrate ligands on host cells. The production of antibodies against B subunits, especially immunoglobulin A (IgA) secreted on the mucosal surface, should contribute to host defense. One of the major problems in attempts to produce IgA against Stx was the poor immunogenicity of B subunits. We were able to produ...
Effective vaccinations against swine influenza reduce the economic loss of pig industries, and also may minimize the possibility of emergence of new pandemic viruses, since pigs are intermediate hosts to generate reassortant viruses among avian and mammalian influenza viruses. In this study, we showed that intranasal immunization of pigs with formalin-inactivated or ether-split influenza vaccin...
Neisseria meningitidis is a major causative agent of bacterial meningitis in human beings, especially among young children (</=2 years of age). Prevention of group B meningococcal disease represents a particularly difficult challenge in vaccine development, due to the inadequate immune response elicited against type B capsular polysaccharide. We have established an adult mouse intranasal challe...
The basic premise of vaccinology is to achieve strong protective immunity against defined infectious agents by a vaccine mimicking the effects of natural primary exposure to a pathogen. Because an exposure of humans and animals to microbes occurs mostly through mucosal surfaces, targeting the mucosa seems a rational and efficient vaccination strategy. Many experimental and clinical data confirm...
Several studies have explored the production and immunogenicity of HpaA as a potential protective antigen against Helicobacter pylori but little is known regarding its protective capabilities. We therefore evaluated the protective efficacy of recombinant HpaA (rHpaA) as a candidate vaccine antigen against H. pylori. To explore the impact of genetic diversity, inbred and outbred mice were prophy...
Anthrax toxin consists of three proteins: protective antigen (PA), lethal factor (LF) and edema factor (EF). PA in combination with LF (lethal toxin) is lethal to mammalian cells and is the major component of human anthrax vaccine. Immunization with PA elicits the production of neutralizing antibodies that form a major component of the protective immunity against anthrax. Recent reports have sh...
To determine the optimal inductive sites for immunization against Helicobacter pylori infection, the protective efficacy of recombinant urease (rUre) was assessed for mice given the vaccine by either the oral (p.o.), intranasal (i.n.), or rectal route. When mice were immunized with rUre (25 microg p.o. or rectally or 10 microg i.n.) plus heat-labile toxin from Escherichia coli as the mucosal ad...
We assessed the role of CCR5(+)/CCR6(+)/CD11b(+)/CD11c(+) dendritic cells (DCs) for induction of ovalbumin (OVA)-specific antibody (Ab) responses following mucosal immunization. Mice given nasal OVA plus an adenovirus expressing Flt3 ligand (Ad-FL) showed early expansion of CCR5(+)/CCR6(+)/CD11b(+)/CD11c(+) DCs in nasopharyngeal-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) and cervical lymph nodes (CLNs)....
Recently, the concept of local allergic rhinitis (LAR) was established, namely rhinitis symptoms with local IgE production and negative serum antigen-specific IgE. However, the natural course of LAR development and the disease pathogenesis is poorly understood. This study investigated the pathophysiology of mice with allergic rhinitis that initially sensitized with ragweed pollen through the na...
