The generation of DCs with augmented functions is a strategy for obtaining satisfactory clinical outcomes in tumor immunotherapy. We developed a novel synthetic adjuvant comprising a liposome conjugated with a DC-targeting Toll-like-receptor ligand and a pH-sensitive polymer for augmenting cross-presentation. In an in vitro study using mouse DCs, these liposomes were selectively incorporated into DCs, significantly enhanced DC function and activated immune responses to present an epitope of the incorporated antigen on the major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. Immunization of mice with liposomes encapsulating a tumor antigen significantly enhanced antigen-specific cytotoxicity. In tumor-bearing mice, vaccination with liposomes encapsulating a tumor antigen elicited complete tumor remission. Furthermore, vaccination significantly enhanced cytotoxicity, targeting not only the vaccinated antigen but also the other antigens of the tumor cell. These results indicate that liposomes are an ideal adjuvant to develop DCs with considerably high potential to elicit antigen-specific immune responses; they are a promising tool for cancer therapy with neoantigen vaccination. 相似文献

Strong quantitative and functional antibody responses to the quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine were reported in mid-adult aged men, but there are limited data on the avidity of the antibody response and the memory B-cell response following vaccination. Although circulating antibodies induced by vaccination are believed to be the main mediators of protection against infection, evaluation of avidity of antibodies and memory B cell responses are critical for a better understanding of the vaccine immunogenicity mechanisms. Both the modified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISpot) assay are tools to measure the humoral and cellular immune responses post vaccination to characterize vaccine immunogenicity. The avidity of HPV-16 and HPV-18 specific IgG in the serum of mid-adult aged men (N = 126) who received three quadrivalent HPV vaccine doses was examined using a modified ELISA. HPV-16 memory B-cell responses were assessed via ELISpot at month 0 (prior to vaccination) and 1-month post-dose three of the vaccine (month 7). The quadrivalent vaccine induced an increase in HPV-16 and HPV-18 antibody avidity at month 7. HPV-18 avidity levels moderately correlated with anti-HPV-18 antibody titers, but no association was observed for HPV-16 antibody titers and avidity levels. The HPV-16-specific memory B-cell response was induced following three vaccine doses, however, no association with anti-HPV-16 antibody avidity was observed. Three doses of quadrivalent HPV vaccine increased antibody affinity maturation for HPV-16/18 and increased the frequency of anti-HPV-16 memory B-cells in mid-adult aged men. 相似文献

Carriers that augment delivery, immunogenicity or both are crucial in the development of vaccines especially component vaccines as components of pathogens are often poorly immunogenic. Cholesteryl pullulan (CHP) that forms nano-sized hydrogel (nanogel) and encapsulates proteins was shown to be useful in the delivery of vaccines. Here we demonstrate that subcutaneous immunization of mice with bovine serum albumin (BSA) chemically conjugated to NH2-CHP nanogel induces strong antibody production. This augmented antibody production requires covalent conjugation between BSA and CHP, but does not require nanogel formation. Conjugation of NH2-CHP nanogel induces persistence of BSA in dendritic cells (DCs) in vivo. As resistance to lysosomal degradation was previously shown to augment antigen presentation by DCs, conjugation of antigens with CHP nanogel may enhance antibody production to antigens by delaying lysosomal degradation. Therefore, delayed degradation of antigens by covalent conjugation with nanoparticles may be a good strategy for the development of effective vaccines. 相似文献

BackgroundWe evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of high and low doses of a novel pichia pastoris-expressed bivalent (types 16 and 18) human papillomavirus (HPV) virus-like particle vaccine.MethodsIn this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial, we enrolled 160 healthy females aged 9–45 years in Guangxi, China who were randomized (1:1:2) to receive either low (0.5 mL) or high (1.0 mL) dosages of bivalent HPV vaccine, or placebo (aluminum adjuvant) in a 0, 2, 6 months schedule. Adverse events and other significant conditions that occurred within 30 days after each vaccination were recorded throughout the trial. Sera were collected at days 0, 60, 180 and 210 to measure anti-HPV 16/18 neutralizing antibodies.ResultsA total of 160 participants received at least one dose of the HPV vaccine and 152 completed the three dose vaccination series. Reporting rates of adverse events in placebo, low dose (0.5 mL) and high dose (1.0 mL) groups were 47.5 %, 55.0 % and 55.0 %, respectively. No serious adverse events occurred during this trial. 100 % of the participants who received three doses of the HPV vaccine produced neutralizing antibodies against HPV 16/18 vaccine. For HPV 16 and HPV 18, the geometric mean titers (GMTs) were similar between the low dose group (GMTHPV 16 = 10816 [95 % CI: 7824–14953]), GMTHPV 18 = 3966 [95 % CI: 2693–5841]) and high dose group (GMT HPV 16 = 14482 [95 % CI: 10848–19333], GMT HPV 18 = 3428 [95 % CI: 2533–4639]).ConclusionThe pichia pastoris-expressed bivalent HPV vaccine was safe and immunogenic in Chinese females aged 9–45 years. The low dosage (0.5 mL) was selected for further immunogenicity and efficacy study. 相似文献

Concerns about bioterrorism and outbreaks of zoonotic orthopoxvirus require safe and efficacious smallpox vaccines. We previously reported the clinical efficacy and safety profiles of LC16m8, a live, attenuated, cell culture-derived, smallpox vaccine, examined in over 3000 healthy Japanese adults with various vaccination histories. In this study, serum of approximately 200 subjects pre and post LC16m8 vaccination were subjected to a vaccinia virus-specific protein array to evaluate the proteome-wide immunogenicity. The relationships between antigen-specific antibodies and plaque reduction neutralization titers were analyzed. LC16m8 induced antibodies to multiple vaccinia antigens in primary-vaccinated individuals and yielded effective booster responses in previously vaccinated individuals, demonstrating similar antibody profiles to those reported for other vaccinia virus strains. Several immunodominant antigens were indicated to be important for neutralization of the intracellular mature virion. The similarity of antibody profiles between LC16m8 and other smallpox vaccine strains supports the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of LC16m8. 相似文献

Clostridioides difficile infection is the leading cause of nosocomial diarrhoea globally. Immune responses to toxins produced by C. difficile are important in disease progression and outcome. Here, we analysed the anti-toxin A and anti-toxin B serum antibody proteomes following natural infection or vaccination with a C. difficile toxoid A/toxoid B vaccine using a modified miniaturised proteomic approach based on de novo mass spectrometric sequencing. Analysis of immunoglobulin variable region (IgV) subfamily expression in immunoprecipitated toxin A and toxin B antibodies from four and seven participants of a vaccine trial, respectively, revealed a polyclonal proteome with restricted IGHV, IGKV and IGLV subfamily usage. No dominant IGHV subfamily was observed in the toxin A response, however the dominant anti-toxin B heavy (H)-chain was encoded by IGHV3-23. Light (L)-chain usage was convergent for both anti-toxin A and anti-toxin B proteomes with IGKV3-11, 3-15, 3-20 and 4-1 shared among all subjects in both cohorts. Peptide mapping of common IgV families showed extensive public and private amino acid substitutions. The cohort responses to toxin A and toxin B showed limited similarity in shared IGHV subfamilies. L-chain subfamily usage was more similar in the anti-toxin A and anti-toxin B responses, however the mutational signatures for each subfamily were toxin-dependent. Samples taken both post vaccination (n = 5) or at baseline, indicating previous exposure (n = 2), showed similar anti-toxin B IgV subfamily usage and mutational profiles. In summary, this study provides the first sequence-based proteomic analysis of the antibody response to the major disease-mediating toxins of C. difficile, toxin A and toxin B, and demonstrates that despite the potential for extreme diversity, the immunoglobulin repertoire can raise convergent responses to specific pathogens whether through natural infection or following vaccination. 相似文献

Both influenza A and B viruses cause outbreaks of seasonal influenza resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. There are two antigenically distinct lineages of influenza B virus, Yamagata lineage (YL) and Victoria lineage (VL). Since both B lineages have been co-circulating for years, more than 70% of influenza vaccines currently manufactured are quadrivalent consisting of influenza A (H1N1), influenza A (H3N2), influenza B (YL) and influenza B (VL) antigens. Although quadrivalent influenza vaccines tend to elevate immunity to both influenza B lineages, estimated overall vaccine efficacy against influenza B is still only around 42%. Thus, a more effective influenza B vaccine is needed.To meet this need, we generated BM2-deficient, single-replication (BM2SR) influenza B vaccine viruses that encode surface antigens from influenza B/Wisconsin/01/2010 (B/WI01, YL) and B/Brisbane/60/2008 (B/Bris60, VL) viruses. The BM2SR-WI01 and BM2SR-Bris60 vaccine viruses are replication-deficient in vitro and in vivo, and can only replicate in a cell line that expresses the complementing BM2 protein. Both BM2SR viruses were non-pathogenic to mice, and vaccinated animals showed elevated mucosal and serum antibody responses to both Yamagata and Victoria lineages in addition to cellular responses. Serum antibody responses included lineage-specific hemagglutinin inhibition antibody (HAI) responses as well as responses to the stem region of the hemagglutinin (HA). BM2SR vaccine viruses provided apparent sterilizing immunity to mice against intra- and inter-lineage drifted B virus challenge. The data presented here support the feasibility of BM2SR as a platform for next-generation trivalent influenza vaccine development. 相似文献

There are currently about 257 million people suffering from chronic HBV infection worldwide. In many cases, an insufficient T cell response is causative for establishment of a chronic infection. To ensure a robust cellular immune response and induction of neutralizing antibodies a novel vaccine platform based on modified cell–permeable HBV capsids was utilized. Cell permeability was achieved by fusion of the membrane–permeable TLM-peptide to HBV core monomers, assembling the capsids. Insertion of a Strep-tagIII into the spike tip domain that protrudes from the capsid surface enables flexible loading with antigens that are fused to streptavidin. In this study, HBV surface antigen-derived PreS1PreS2 domain, fused to monomeric streptavidin, served as cargo antigen. Binding between antigen and capsids was characterized by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, electron microscopy and density gradient centrifugation. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy and in vivo imaging of immunized mice demonstrated membrane permeability of cargo-loaded carriers and spread of antigen over the whole organism. Immunization experiments of mice revealed a robust induction of a specific cellular immune response, leading to destruction of HBV-positive cells and induction of HBV-specific neutralizing antibodies. Membrane permeability of these carriers allows needle-free application of antigen-loaded capsids as evidenced by induction of an HBV-specific CTL response and HBV-specific B cell response after oral or transdermal vaccination.These data indicate that cell–permeable antigen carriers, based on HBV capsids and loaded with HBV antigen, have the capacity to induce a cellular and a neutralizing humoral immune response. In addition, cell permeability of the vaccine platform enables antigen transfer across several cell layers, that could allow oral or transdermal immunization. 相似文献

BackgroundSerogroup B meningococcal (MenB) vaccination recommendations for adolescents in the United States (US) include routine vaccination for all individuals at increased risk and vaccination for individuals not at increased risk aged 16–23 years (preferred age 16–18 years) based on shared clinical decision-making. The two licensed MenB vaccines require administration of ≥2 doses.MethodsThis cross-sectional study analyzed 2017–2018 National Immunization Survey-Teen (NIS-Teen) data to evaluate ≥1 dose and ≥2 dose MenB vaccination coverage among adolescents aged 17 years. Multivariable logistic regression was used to further evaluate determinants of MenB vaccination.ResultsNationally, MenB vaccination coverage among 17-year-olds increased from 14.5% in 2017 to 17.2% in 2018 for ≥1 dose and from 6.3% to 8.4% for ≥2 doses. MenB vaccination coverage (2017–2018) was the lowest in the South (≥1 dose: 14.6%; ≥2 doses: 6.3%) and highest in the Northeast region (18.3% and 9.3%), with variation observed by census division. Adolescents were more likely to have received ≥1 dose of MenB vaccine if they had any Medicaid insurance (odds ratio [OR], 1.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.32–2.39) or had received human papillomavirus (OR, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.41–2.67) or meningococcal A, C, W, and Y (OR, 4.03; 95% CI, 2.92–5.56) vaccinations.ConclusionsMenB first-dose coverage in the US is low, and even lower for a second dose, with regional variation. Being up to date with other routinely administered vaccines increased the likelihood of receiving MenB vaccination. 相似文献

Background and AimsInfluenza vaccination is recommended by the World Health Organisation for pregnant women, offering the dual benefit of protecting pregnant women and their newborn infants against influenza infection. Various factors can influence vaccine immunogenicity, with obesity being one factor implicated in varied responses. This study aimed to investigate the impact of body mass index (BMI) on vaccine responses following influenza vaccination during pregnancy.MethodsPregnant women attending the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in South Australia during 2014–2016 were invited to participate. Participant’s clinical and demographic factors were recorded prior to administration of licensed seasonal influenza vaccination. Blood samples were collected before and one month post-vaccination to measure antibody responses by haemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay. Seroprotection was defined as a post-vaccination HI titre ≥ 1:40. Regression models assessed associations with failure to achieve seroprotective antibodies to H1, H3, and B influenza strains.ResultsA total of 96 women were enrolled in the study at a median gestation of 22 weeks with a BMI range of 18–49 kg/m2. Paired sera samples were available for 90/96 (94%). Most pregnant women (72/90, 80%) demonstrated seroprotective antibody titres to all three influenza vaccine antigens (A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3N2), B/Yamagata) following vaccination. Compared with women with BMI < 30 kg/m2, those with high BMI were less likely to fail to achieve seroprotective antibodies, however this was not statistically significant (RR 0.42, 95% CI 0.11–1.68; p = 0.22). A greater proportion of women vaccinated during their second (47/53, 93%) or third trimester (18/25, 72%) demonstrated seroprotection to all three vaccine antigens following vaccination compared with women vaccinated during their first trimester (7/12, 58%).ConclusionHigh BMI did not impair seroprotection levels following influenza vaccination in pregnant women. Gestation at vaccination may be an important consideration for optimising vaccine protection for pregnant women and their newborns. Further assessment of first trimester influenza vaccine responses is warranted. 相似文献

Background and aimsNo report explored the combined effects of HLA-DPA1 and -DPB1 with long-term response to hepatitis B (HB) vaccination (HBVac). The specific aims of the study were to assess the combined effects and relative contributions of DPA1 and DPB1 genes.MethodsThe cases were 152 adolescents who had undetectable (<1.0 mIU/mL) post-booster anti-HBs titers and the controls were adolescents who had residual anti-HBs ≥ 10 mIU/mL at aged 16 years (n = 207) or had detectable (≥1.0 mIU/mL) anti-HBs titers after booster HBVac (n = 481). HLA-DPA1 and -DPB1 genotypes were determined by sequence-based typing.ResultsHLA-DPA1*01:03:01 was correlated with lower ORs of undetectable anti-HBs titers, while -DPA1*02:02:02 and -DPB1*05:01:01 were correlated with higher ORs. The ORs for HLA-DPA1*01:03:01-DPB1*05:01:01 and DPA1*02:02:02-DPB1*protective combinatory types were significantly less than 1.0. As compared with subjects who had no protective allele, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) were 0.545 (0.328–0.906), 0.350 (0.174–0.702), and 0.122 (0.058–0.257), for subjects who had protective alleles on DPA1only, DPB1 only, and both genes, respectively. Analyses of amino acid polymorphisms showed that subjects who carried Arg81-Pro158-Val191-Pro259α + Met234β and Gln62-Arg82α + Met234β combinations had 4.3-to-4.6 folds of risks.ConclusionBoth DPA1 and DPB1 genes contribute to the persistence of immunological response to primary infantile HBVac. The effects of HLA-DP risk alleles were dominated by the protective alleles and there were significant gene-gene interactions. Our findings provide evidences for the design of more potent HB vaccine. 相似文献

While vaccination is highly effective for the prevention of many infectious diseases, the number of adjuvants licensed for human use is currently very limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and to clarify the mechanism of a phosphorothioated interleukin (IL)-10-targeted antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) as an immune adjuvant in intradermal vaccination. The cytotoxicity of IL-10 ASO and its ability to promote T cell proliferation were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The contents of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-10 in inoculated local tissue and the antigen-specific antibody titers in mouse serum samples were determined by ELISA. The target cells of IL-10 ASO were observed using immunofluorescent staining. The results showed that the specific antibody titer of ovalbumin (OVA), a model antigen, was increased 100-fold upon addition of IL-10 ASO as an adjuvant compared to that of OVA alone. IL-10 ASO showed an immunopotentiation efficacy similar to that of Freund’s incomplete adjuvant, with no detectable cell or tissue toxicity. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that IL-10 ASO enhances immune responses by temporarily suppressing IL-10 expression from local dendritic cells and consequently promoting T cell proliferation. In conclusion, IL-10 ASO significantly enhances immune responses against co-delivered vaccine antigens with high efficacy and low toxicity. It has the potential to be developed into a safe and efficient immune adjuvant. 相似文献

Subunit vaccines derived from tumor antigens play a role in tumor therapy because of their unique advantages. However, because of the weak immunogenicity of peptides in subunit vaccines, it is difficult to trigger an effective cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response, which is critical for cancer therapy. A requirement for the activation of CTL cells by exogenous antigens is the stimulation of antigen presenting cells (APC) with the help of adjuvants and cross-presentation to T lymphocytes. Standard nonconjugated adjuvant-peptide mixtures do not ensure co-targeting of the antigen and the adjuvant to the same APC, which limits the effects of adjuvants. In this study, a fusion protein consisting of murine granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) fused with CTA2 (A2 subunit of cholera toxin) was generated and assembled with CTB-PSMA624-632 (prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) peptide 624–632 fused to CTB) to obtain a cholera toxin-like protein. The chimeric protein retained the biological activity of mGM-CSF and had stronger GM1 binding activity than (CTB-PSMA624-632)5. C57BL/6J mice immunized with the CT-like chimeric protein exhibited delayed tumor growth following challenge with human PSMA-EGFP-expressing RM-1 cells. Experiment results showed that the CT-like chimeric protein could induce the maturation of DC cells and improve CTL responses. Overall, these results indicate that the nasal administration of a CT-like chimeric protein vaccine results in the development of effective immunity against prostate tumor cells and might be useful for future clinical anti-tumoral applications. 相似文献

CD8+ T cells are known to control infections, but their role in preventing latent infection from establishing has not been thoroughly investigated.We hypothesized that a potent CD8+ T cell response patrolling the mucosal viral entry points could kill the first infected cells and thereby abrogate the infection before latency is established.To investigate this, replication deficient adenovirus serotype 5 vectors encoding murine γ-herpesvirus-68 CD8+ T cell epitopes linked to the T cell adjuvant Invariant chain, were developed. We show that intranasal vaccination of mice reduces the risk of establishment of latent infection from multiple intranasal ID50 challenges with murine γ-herpesvirus-68 by 81% per exposure at 14 days post vaccination. Protection waned over time, but immune responses were extended by heterologous prime-boost vaccination applied simultaneously intramuscularly and intranasally, and animals vaccinated 66 days prior to challenge showed a strong trend of long-term protection.Our data provides evidence that CD8+ T cells are able to protect against establishment of latent infection. Although the protective efficacy is difficult to maintain over time, this proof-of-concept study suggests a role for a CD8+ T cell arm in future vaccine strategies against latent human viral infections caused by pathogens such as HIV and multiple herpes virus. 相似文献

The identification of adjuvants that promote lasting antigen-specific immunity and augment vaccine efficacy are integral to the development of new protein-based vaccines. The Ebola virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine expressing Ebola virus glycoprotein (GP) and matrix protein (VP40) was used in this study to evaluate the ability of TLR4 agonist glucopyranosyl lipid adjuvant (GLA) formulated in a stable emulsion (SE) to enhance immunogenicity and promote durable protection against mouse-adapted Ebola virus (ma-EBOV). Antibody responses and Ebola-specific T cell responses were evaluated post vaccination. Survival analysis after lethal ma-EBOV challenge was performed 4 weeks and 22 weeks following final vaccination. GLA-SE enhanced EBOV-specific immunity and resulted in long-term protection against challenge with ma-EBOV infection in a mouse model. Specifically, GLA-SE elicited Th1-skewed antibodies and promoted the generation of EBOV GP-specific polyfunctional T cells. These results provide further support for the utility of TLR4 activating GLA-SE-adjuvanted vaccines. 相似文献

ObjectivesHydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CyD), an oligosaccharide used as an excipient in pharmaceutical preparation, was recently reported to function as a vaccine adjuvant to co-administered antigens. In this study, we investigated the safety and immunogenicity of a seasonal influenza vaccine adjuvanted with HP-β-CyD (FluCyD-vac) in healthy adults compared with those of a standard seasonal influenza vaccine (Flu-vac).MethodsWe conducted a single-blinded randomized phase 1 clinical trial study, and used two quadrivalent split seasonal influenza vaccines: FluCyD-vac containing 9 μg of HA/strain and 20% w/v of HP-β-CyD, and Flu-vac containing 15 μg of hemagglutinin (HA)/strain only. All participants were randomly assigned to receive a single dose of Flu/CyD-vac or Flu-vac at a ratio of 2:1. We assessed solicited and unsolicited adverse events (AEs) and immune responses using hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers. In addition, we assessed T-cell function in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), after stimulation with HA vaccine strains, using flow cytometry.ResultsAmong 36 healthy volunteers enrolled in the study (FluCyD-vac, n = 24; Flu-vac, n = 12), FluCyD-vac was well tolerated. Most of the solicited AEs were mild local skin reactions at the injection site. No serious AEs were reported in either group. HI titers 21 days after vaccination with FluCyD-vac were comparable with those of Flu-vac and sufficient to meet international criteria, despite reduced HA antigen doses. When PBMCs were stimulated with the four HA antigens in the vaccine, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-producing CD4+ T cells were enhanced in the FluCyD-vac group.ConclusionFluCyD-vac was well-tolerated and immunogenic, despite containing 40% less HA antigens than Flu-vac. This study showed that HP-β-CyD is a potentially safe, novel adjuvant for human influenza vaccine.Clinical trial registry: UMIN000028530. 相似文献

BackgroundGaps in adult hepatitis B vaccination were undefined in Vietnam, a lower-middle-income country. To address these gaps, this study defined hepatitis B vaccine coverage in adults and its associated factors in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), Viet Nam. We also proposed interventional strategies, prioritizing gap identification to facilitate hepatitis B elimination by 2030 and beyond.MethodDuring 2019–2020, a multi-stage cluster serosurvey with probability proportional to size was conducted to representatively invite 20,000 adults (18 years or older) throughout HCMC for hepatitis B screening (HBsAg, anti-HBs, and anti-HBc). Serologic results defined two dependent variables: vaccine-induced immunity (i.e., isolated anti-HBs) and susceptibility (i.e., HBV naive). Associations of dependent variables with surveyed demographics, socioeconomic statuses, behaviors, and medical history at risk for hepatitis B were evaluated using weighted Poisson regression.ResultsThe prevalence was 18.5% (95%CI, 17.3-20.0%) for vaccine-induced immunity and 37.7% (35.6-39.8%) for susceptibility. Even though analyses in the general population revealed a falling trend in vaccine-induced immunity prevalence from younger to older age groups, sensitivity analyses in the non-infected population (i.e., those who were both negative for HBsAg and anti-HBc) showed that younger age groups, especially those aged 30 to 50 years, had the lowest prevalence. Social inequalities existed in different ethnicities, residence areas, education levels, house ownership, and health insurance statuses. There was no significant association between vaccine-induced immunity or susceptibility and risky behaviors and medical histories.ConclusionThis study depicts a significant unmet need for hepatitis B vaccination in the general adult population in HCMC, Viet Nam. Indeed, the lack of vaccination was unevenly distributed regarding age groups, geographical areas, and socioeconomic statuses, which reveals profound social disparities. Therefore, to achieve hepatitis B elimination goals, besides the current recommendations for infants and risk-based strategies, hepatitis B vaccination should be recommended for the broader population. 相似文献

The species and tissue specificities of HPV (human papillomavirus) for human infection and disease complicates the process of prophylactic vaccine development in animal models. HPV pseudoviruses (PsV) that carry only a reporter plasmid have been utilized in vivo to demonstrate cell internalization in mouse mucosal epithelium. The current study sought to expand the application of this HPV PsV challenge model with both oral and vaginal inoculation and to demonstrate its utility for testing vaccine-mediated dual-site immune protection against several HPV PsV types. We observed that passive transfer of sera from mice vaccinated with the novel experimental HPV prophylactic vaccine RG1-VLPs (virus-like particles) conferred HPV16-neutralizing as well as cross-neutralizing Abs against HPV39 in naïve recipient mice. Moreover, active vaccination with RG1-VLPs also conferred protection to challenge with either HPV16 or HPV39 PsVs at both vaginal and oral sites of mucosal inoculation. These data support the use of the HPV PsV challenge model as suitable for testing against diverse HPV types at two sites of challenge (vaginal vault and oral cavity) associated with the origin of the most common HPV-associated cancers, cervical cancer and oropharyngeal cancer. 相似文献
