Poliovirus replicons encoding the B subunit of Helicobacter pylori urease protect mice against H. pylori infection 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
We developed a novel vaccine for Helicobacter pylori based on a poliovirus vector in which capsid genes were replaced with the gene for the B subunit of H. pylori urease (UreB). Mice were vaccinated with UreB or control (L1) replicon and challenged with H. pylori. Twenty percent of mice vaccinated prophylactically with UreB, but 80% vaccinated with L1, and then challenged with H. pylori became infected (P = 0.003). Seventy-three percent of mice with established H. pylori infection vaccinated therapeutically with UreB replicon cleared their infection compared to 33% vaccinated with L1 (P = 0.067). In therapeutically vaccinated mice with residual infection, UreB-vaccinated animals had fewer H. pylori than L1-vaccinated mice (P < 0.05). Anti-urease antibody titres in prophylactically, but not therapeutically, vaccinated mice were markedly higher in animals that received UreB versus L1 replicon (P = 0.01). Vaccination with poliovirus vector containing the gene for the B subunit of H. pylori urease provides significant prophylactic and strong therapeutic protection against H. pylori in mice. 相似文献

Identification of H-2d restricted Th epitopes in Urease B subunit of Helicobacter pylori 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
CD4+ T cells play important roles in protection against Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. In order to better understand the immune responses of H. pylori infection and improve immune interventions against this pathogen, we identified the Th epitopes in UreB of H. pylori, an excellent vaccine candidate antigen. By using the RANKPEP prediction algorithm, we have identified and characterized three Th epitopes within the UreB antigen, which can be recognized by CD4+ T cells from BALB/c (H-2d) mice. They were U(546-561), U(229-244), and U(237-251). These epitopes have important value for studying the immune response of H. pylori infection and for designing effective vaccine against H. pylori. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori infection can cause gastritis, peptic ulcer and can lead to gastric cancer. Lengthy antibiotic therapy does not protect the host against reinfection. H. pylori evolved to evade the recognition of the immune response by modifying several of its components whose orthologous proteins from other bacteria activate the innate immune response. Flagella are essential for the H. pylori effective colonization of human duodenum and stomach. TLR5, a member of the Toll-like receptor family, recognizes flagellin of most bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, but does not recognize the flagellin FlaA of H. pylori. We restored the ability of FlaA for the recognition by TLR5 by engineering a chimeric flagellin, in which both terminal segments of H. pylori flagellin were replaced by the corresponding segments from TLR5-activating E. coli flagellin. Recombinant chimeric flagellin folded correctly and was able to activate TLR5. Significantly increased serum IgG and IgA antibody responses were determined in mice vaccinated with chimeric flagellin in comparison to mice vaccinated with a control protein (FlaA) or negative control. Antibody titers remained high even 8 months after the last immunization. Antibodies were able to bind native flagellin from H. pylori lysate. Vaccination with chimeric flagellin provided mice with significant protection against H. pylori. The approach of chimeric flagellin can therefore generate effective immunogens that enable activation of innate and adaptive immune response and can be used to construct efficient vaccines against H. pylori or other flagellated bacteria that evade TLR5 recognition. 相似文献

Poliovirus replicons encoding the B subunit of Helicobacter pylori urease elicit a Th1 associated immune response. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The development of a vaccine for Helicobacter pylori is a key strategy for reducing the worldwide prevalence of H. pylori infection. Although immunization with recombinant B subunit of H. pylori urease (ureB) has yielded promising results, for the most part, these studies relied on the use of strong adjuvant, cholera toxin, precluding the use in humans. Thus, the development of new vaccine strategies for H. pylori is essential. Previous studies from our laboratory have described a vaccine vector based on poliovirus in which foreign genes are substituted for the poliovirus capsid genes. The genomes encoding foreign proteins (replicons) are encapsidated into authentic poliovirions by providing the capsids in trans. To test the utility of replicons as a vaccine vector for H. pylori, a replicon was constructed which encodes ureB. Expression of ureB in cells from the replicon was demonstrated by metabolic labeling followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-urease antibodies. To investigate the immunogenicity of the replicons, mice containing the transgene for the receptor for poliovirus were immunized via the intramuscular route. Mice given three doses of replicons did not develop substantial antibodies to ureB as determined by Western blot analysis using lysates from H. pylori. In contrast, mice given two doses of replicon followed by a single injection of recombinant ureB developed serum antibodies to ureB which were predominately IgG2a. Splenic lymphocytes from mice immunized with replicons alone, or replicons plus recombinant ureB produced abundant interferon-gamma and no detectable interleukin-4 upon stimulation with recombinant ureB. These results establish that poliovirus replicons encoding H. pylori ureB are immunogenic and induce primarily a T helper 1 associated immune response. 相似文献

Serum-derived IgG1-mediated immune exclusion as a mechanism of protection against H. pylori infection 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The induction of protective immunity against Helicobacter challenge in a murine model was found to correlate with the magnitude of IgG (serum and gastric lavage) responsiveness to intra-nasal (i.n.) immunisation. IgG1-secreting hybridoma backpacks in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-infected mice revealed serum transudation into the stomach. A Lpp20-specific monoclonal antibody was associated with significantly reduced H. pylori colonisation. Histology revealed aggregates of the remaining H. pylori in these mice, suggesting a role for IgG1-mediated immune exclusion of the bacteria. In vitro immunogold electron microscopy supported this hypothesis, but also suggested that a threshold of H. pylori-specific antibody needs to be maintained if immune exclusion by the host is to overcome immune evasion by the bacteria. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori is a human class I carcinogen and no effective prophylactic or therapeutic H. pylori vaccine has yet been marketed. H. pylori can escape the host immune response, but the precise immune protection mechanisms in humans remain unknown. In this study, we developed a multivalent, subunit H. pylori vaccine candidate by formulating three commonly used H. pylori antigens, neutrophil-activating protein (NAP), urease subunit A (UreA) and subunit B (UreB) with the mucosal adjuvant, a double-mutant heat-labile toxin (dmLT) from Escherichia coli, and evaluated its immunogenicity and therapeutic efficacy in a mouse model of H. pylori infection. We found that oral immunization of H. pylori-infected mice significantly reduced gastric bacterial colonization at both 2 and 8 weeks after immunization. The reduction in bacterial burdens was accompanied with significantly increased serum antigen-specific IgG responses and mucosal IgA responses. Moreover, oral immunization also induced Th1/Th17 immune responses, which may play a synergistic role with the specific antibodies in the elimination of H. pylori. Thus, our vaccine candidate appears able to overcome the immune evasion mechanism of H. pylori, restore the suppression of Th2 immune responses with the induction of a strong humoral immune response. These results lay the foundation for the development of an optimized oral therapeutic H. pylori vaccine with increased immunogenicity of UreA and UreB, as well as providing long-term immunity. 相似文献

Urease plays a crucial role in the survival and pathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), and antibody neutralizing the urease activity may be implicated for the protection against H. pylori infection. Previously, a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb) 6E6 against UreB of H. pylori was developed. In this work, we try to identify the B-cell epitope recognized by neutralizing MAb 6E6. Following screening a series of truncated proteins of UreB, an epitope was primarily localized in the aa 200-230 of UreB. Subsequently, we screened the overlapping synthetic peptides covering the aa 200-230 and identified a novel B-cell epitope (U(211-225), IEAGAIGFKIHEDWG) that was recognized by specific MAb 6E6. The newly identified epitope may help understanding of the protective immunity against H. pylori and be implicated for vaccine development. 相似文献

Mucosal vaccines present several advantages over conventional parenteral vaccines including their ease of administration and low cost, both criteria being priorities for developing countries plagued by infectious diseases. A recombinant Lactococcus lactis strain producing the envelope domain III (EDIII) antigen from dengue virus serotype 2 was engineered, and the ability of the live recombinant bacteria to trigger a systemic anti-EDIII IgG antibody response upon nasal or oral administration to BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice was investigated. Results showed that the antibody response depended on the route of administration and on the mouse strain inoculated. Out of six, two and three C57BL/6 mice orally and nasally inoculated with the recombinant bacteria, respectively, displayed anti-EDIII antibody responses higher than that obtained in the mouse group intraperitoneally (i.p.) immunized with heat-inactivated dengue 2 virus. The protective potential of the immune sera was measured using the plaque reduction neutralizing test (PRNT) and results indicated that high anti-EDIII antibody levels did not correlate directly with high neutralizing activities. Immune sera from orally inoculated mice were found the most potent to neutralize in vitro dengue infection with neutralizing antibody activities in some cases higher than that obtained with the immune sera from mice i.p. injected with heat-inactivated virus. 相似文献

Consumption of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been suggested to confer a range of health benefits including stimulation of the immune system and increased resistance to malignancy and infectious illness. In the present study, the effects of feeding Lactobacillus rhamnosus (HN001, DR20), Lactobacillus acidophilus (HN017) and Bifidobacterium lactis (HN019, DR10) on in vivo and in vitro indices of natural and acquired immunity in healthy mice were examined. Mice were fed daily with L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus or B. lactis (10(9) colony forming units) and their immune function was assessed on day 10 or day 28. Supplementation with L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus or B. lactis resulted in a significant increase in the phagocytic activity of peripheral blood leucocytes and peritoneal macrophages compared with the control mice. The proliferative responses of spleen cells to concanavalin A (a T-cell mitogen) and lipopolysaccharide (a B-cell mitogen) were also significantly enhanced in mice given different LAB. Spleen cells from mice given L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus or B. lactis also produced significantly higher amounts of interferon-gamma in response to stimulation with concanavalin A than cells from the control mice. LAB feeding had no significant effect on interleukin-4 production by spleen cells or on the percentages of CD4+, CD8+ and CD40+ cells in the blood. The serum antibody responses to orally and systemically administered antigens were also significantly enhanced by supplementation with L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus or B. lactis. Together, these results suggest that supplementation of the diet with L. rhamnosus (HN001), L. acidophilus (HN017) or B. lactis (HN019) is able to enhance several indices of natural and acquired immunity in healthy mice. 相似文献

An efficacious Chlamydia vaccine is urgently needed to control Chlamydia infections. Heterologous prime-boost vaccination regimens are emerging as a promising strategy for preventing intracellular viral and bacterial infections. However, it remains to be determined if this regimen would be a feasible and effective approach for Chlamydia infection. In this study, we examined the immune response and the protective efficacy induced by various vaccination regimens using a recombinant adenovirus vector expressing the Chlamydia antigen CPAF (AdCPAF) and recombinant CPAF (rCPAF) subunit vaccines formulated with CpG oligodeoxynucleotides and/or a synthetic immunomodulatory peptide HH2 as adjuvants. A single dose of AdCPAF stimulated potent antibody production but weak cellular immune responses in mice. A booster rCPAF vaccine formulated with both CpG and HH2, but not CpG alone or HH2 alone, showed robust adjuvant effects on induction of Th1-biased cellular immune responses in mice primed with AdCPAF. In contrast, a homologous regimen using rCPAF/CpG/HH2 subunit vaccine for both priming and boosting induced a weak antibody response, but potent cellular immunity with a mixed Th1/Th17 profile. Despite the disparities observed in humoral and cellular immune responses, both the heterologous and homologous prime-boost regimens conferred significant immune protection against genital Chlamydia muridarum challenge in C3H/HeN and BALB/c mice. 相似文献

Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease affecting over 12 million individuals worldwide. Current treatments are laborious, expensive, cause severe side effects, and emerging drug resistance has been reported. While vaccination is the most cost-effective means to control infectious diseases there is no human vaccine currently available against Leishmania infections. Lactococcus lactis is a non-pathogenic, non-colonizing Gram-positive lactic acid bacterium commonly used in the dairy industry. Recently, L. lactis was used for the expression and delivery of biologically active molecules, such as antigens and cytokines, in mice and humans. In this study, we report the generation of L. lactis(alr-) strains solely expressing the protective Leishmania antigen, LACK, in the cytoplasm, secreted or anchored to the bacterial cell wall or co-expressing mouse IL-12. We show that oral immunization using live L. lactis, secreting both LACK and IL-12 was the only regimen that partially protected BALB/c mice against subsequent Leishmania major challenge. This highlights the importance of temporal and physical proximity of the delivered antigen and adjuvant for optimal immune priming by oral immunization since co-administration of L. lactis strains independently expressing secLACK and secIL-12 did not induce protective immunity. Protected animals displayed a delay in footpad swelling, which correlated with a significant reduction of parasite burden. Immunization with the L. lactis strain secreting both LACK and IL-12 induced an antigen-specific mucosal immune response and a LACK-specific T(H)1 immune response in splenocytes and mesenteric lymph node cells. Further, protection in immunized animals correlated with a strong Leishmania-specific T(H)1 immune response post-challenge, detectable in splenocytes and lymph node cells draining the site of infection. This report demonstrates the use of L. lactis as an oral live vaccine against L. major infection in susceptible BALB/c mice. The vaccine strains generated in this study provide the basis for the development of an inexpensive and safe oral live vaccine against the human parasite Leishmania. 相似文献

H. pylori infection is a very common infection of the human stomach, related to various diseases such as gastritis, ulcerative disease of the duodenum and stomach, mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas and gastric cancer. It is generally accepted that the majority of related diseases is curable once H. pylori infection is successfully eradicated. H. pylori eradication will only be achieved after administration of combination therapies including antibiotics and antacids. Resistance to metronidazole and clarithromycin is an emerging problem, leading to impairment of eradication efficacy, irrespective of the regimen administered. Eradication regimens consisting of three or four anti-H. pylori drugs are the most efficacious. Given the easy use and high convenience to the patients and the high efficacy, 1-week proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-triple therapy is preferred as the first-line therapy. Alternatively, bismuth triple therapy or the combination of antacids and bismuth triple therapy can be prescribed; however, these regimens are less convenient to the patients, the course is prolonged or the side effects occur more frequently compared with PPI-triple therapy. 相似文献

A recombinant strain of attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi surface-expressing Yersinia pestis F1 antigen was generated by transforming strain BRD1116 (aroA aroC htrA) with plasmid pAH34L encoding the Y. pestis caf operon. BRD1116/pAH34L was stable in vitro and in vivo. An immunisation regimen of two intranasal doses of 1 x 10(8) cfu of BRD1116/pAH34L given intranasally to mice 7 days apart induced the strongest immune response compared to other regimens and protected 13 out of 20 mice from lethal challenge with Y. pestis. Intranasal immunisation of mice constitutes a model for oral immunisation with Salmonella vaccines in humans. Thus, the results demonstrate that attenuated strains of S. enterica serovar Typhi which express Y. pestis F1 antigen may be developed to provide an oral vaccine against plague suitable for use in humans. 相似文献

Several reports have indicated that combinatorial regimens with DNA and protein vaccines can elicit both strong immune responses, to circumvent the limits of each vaccine. Surprisingly little was known on HBV vaccine. Here, we investigated the immunization effects of several regimens in BALB/c mice. The level of total antibody and isotypes of IgG were determined by ELISA. Cellular immune responses were assayed by measuring the production of cytokines and CTL activity after re-stimulation for 7 days in vitro with tumor cells CT26/S stably expressing HBsAg. The efficacy of immunoprotection against the challenge of transplanted CT26/S was also examined. The regimen involving twice priming pVAX(S) encoding HBsAg and once recombinant HBsAg protein (rHBsAg) boosting, induced strong and homogenous antibody responses. This regimen induced significant stronger responses of interleukin-12 and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in splenocytes, and elicited stronger CD8+ CTL responses and greater immunopretectional efficacy than those elicited by immunization with rHBsAg or pVAX(S) alone. Our regimen may thus provide a strategy for developing an improved immunization against HBV and many other pathogens. 相似文献

Vaccination against Helicobacter pylori is of particular clinical interest. Recombinant urease, the major protein in H. pylori, has been used for mucosal vaccination trials in different animal models, but was found to be ineffective in humans. The current study therefore investigated the human immune response towards recombinant H. pylori urease A and B (rUreA/B) expressed in E. coli compared to different cellular fractions of H. pylori (cytosol, total, inner and outer membrane). Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Mo-DC) were generated from monocytes isolated by magnetic antigen cell separation (MACS) from healthy volunteers and cultured in the presence of hrIL-4 and hrGM-CSF. Mo-DC were stimulated for 48h with the recombinant proteins (1 microg/ml) or cellular fractions (1-10 microg/ml) and cytokine release was determined in the culture supernatant by ELISA. rUreA and rUreB were effective in inducing IL-12 secretion (6-10 fold) and, to a much lesser extent (2 fold), IL-10 secretion from Mo-DC. Total and outer membrane preparations from H. pylori stimulated IL-12 secretion significantly, and were even more potent than intact bacteria. Mo-DCs pulsed with rUreA activated allogenic CD56+ NK-cells, as determined by TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma secretion, but not allogenic CD4+/CD45RA+ na?ve T-cells. In contrast, Mo-DCs pulsed with H. pylori total membrane or outer membrane preparations activated allogenic naive T-cells in co-culture systems, as determined by increased TNF-alpha secretion. It appears that outer membrane preparations of H. pylori, but not recombinant urease are more effective in inducing a Th1 polarized response in humans in vitro. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to investigate the efficacy of a prototype DNA immunization construct encoding the urease B subunit enzyme of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) for inducing adaptive and innate immune responses in mice immunized via intramuscular or subcutaneous routes and to further explore the adjuvant effects of the CpG motifs in the vector. Antibody, cytokine, and beta-defensin profiles were assessed in the stomachs of immunized animals: experiments were terminated 3 months after immunization because there was a significant increase in the anti-H. pylori urease B antibody response at Week 6 in mice immunized with the urease B construct. A long lasting expression of IL-10 mRNA was noted. Furthermore, a marked and sustained increase in the mRNA expression of beta-defensins was also observed, particularly beta1. This study demonstrates that an H. pylori urease B DNA construct can induce innate as well as adaptive immune responses in the stomachs of immunized mice. Upregulation of beta-defensin gene expression followed immunization and we believe that this is the first report of a DNA vaccine inducing innate anti-microbial responses. Such complex molecular interactions that modulate both innate and adaptive immune responses may be of critical importance in the control of mucosal pathogens, such as H. pylori. 相似文献

HpaA is a Helicobacter pylori-specific lipoprotein that has been shown to be an effective protective antigen for mucosal vaccination against H. pylori infection in mice. However, detergents are needed for the purification of full-length HpaA (HpaAfull), which might confer toxicity, thus making HpaAfull unsuitable for use in a human vaccine. We here describe a recombinantly produced truncated version of HpaA (HpaAtrunc), which is easily purified without the use of detergents. Evaluation in the murine H. pylori infection model showed that sublingual immunization with HpaAtrunc was equally immunogenic and protective as immunization with HpaAfull. Immunization with a combination of HpaAtrunc and recombinant UreB protein induced strong immune responses to both antigens and importantly had a strong synergistic effect on protection, associated with synergistically increased expression of IL-17 in the stomach. Notably, sublingual immunization with HpaAtrunc and UreB was superior to corresponding intragastric immunization with regard to the level of protection induced. In conclusion, HpaAtrunc is a promising, readily produced, non-toxic recombinant antigen for inclusion in a mucosal vaccine against H. pylori infection, which may preferably be given sublingually together with UreB. 相似文献

Safety and immunogenicity of phoP/phoQ-deleted Salmonella typhi expressing Helicobacter pylori urease in adult volunteers. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Salmonella typhi Ty800, deleted for the Salmonella phoP/phoQ virulence regulon has been shown to be a safe and immunogenic single dose oral typhoid fever vaccine in volunteers. This promising vaccine strain was modified to constitutively express a heterologous protein of Gram negative bacterial origin, Helicobacter pylori urease subunits A and B, yielding S. typhi strain Ty1033. Seven volunteers received single oral doses of > or = 10(10) colony forming units of Ty1033; an eighth volunteer received two doses 3 months apart. Side effects were similar to those observed previously in volunteers who received the unmodified vector Ty800. All volunteers had strong mucosal immune responses to vaccination as measured by increases in IgA-secreting cells in peripheral blood directed against S. typhi antigens. Seven of eight volunteers had convincing seroconversion as measured by increases in serum IgG directed against S. typhi flagella and lipopolysaccharide antigens by ELISA. No volunteer had detectable mucosal or humoral immune responses to the urease antigen after immunization with single doses of Ty1033. A subset of three volunteers received an oral booster vaccination consisting of recombinant purified H. pylori urease A/B and E. coli heat labile toxin adjuvant 15 days after immunization with Ty1033. None of three had detectable humoral or mucosal immune responses to urease. Expression of a stable immunogenic protein in an appropriately attenuated S. typhi vector did not engender detectable mucosal or systemic antibody responses; additional work will be needed to define variables important for immunogenicity of heterologous antigens carried by live S. typhi vectors in humans. 相似文献
