We have previously found that whole influenza virus vaccine induced a more rapid and stronger humoral response, particularly after the first dose of vaccine, than split virus vaccine in mice. In this study, we have evaluated the protective efficacy of whole and split influenza virus vaccines in mice using a nonlethal upper respiratory tract challenge model. We have also investigated the immunological correlates associated with no or very little viral shedding after viral challenge. Vaccination resulted in reduced viral shedding and shortened the duration of infection by at least 2 days. After one dose of vaccine, whole virus vaccine generally resulted in less viral shedding than split virus vaccine. In contrast, two doses of split virus vaccine, particularly the highest vaccine strengths of 15 and 30 microg HA, most effectively limited viral replication and these mice had high concentrations of prechallenge influenza-specific serum IgG. The vaccine formulation influenced the IgG2a/IgG1 ratio, and this IgG subclass profile was maintained upon challenge to some extent, although it did not influence the level of viral shedding. The concentration of postvaccination serum IgG showed an inverse relationship with the level of viral shedding after viral challenge. Therefore, serum IgG is an important factor in limiting viral replication in the upper respiratory tract upon challenge of an antigenically similar virus. 相似文献

PURPOSE: We evaluated the association of glycemic control with erectile dysfunction in men with diabetes type 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A convenience sample of men with diabetes type 2 at the Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center completed questions 1 to 5 of the International Index of Erectile Function. The primary outcome measure was erectile function score, calculated as the sum of questions 1 to 5. Details of disease duration, complications, medication use, patient age and level of glycosylated hemoglobin were obtained by reviewing the medical record. RESULTS: Mean subject age plus or minus standard deviation was 62.0+/-12.3 years, mean hemoglobin A1c was 8.1%+/-1.9% and mean erectile function score was 16.6+/-5.9 (range 5 to 23). Stratified analysis revealed that mean erectile function score decreased as hemoglobin A1c increased (analysis of variance p = 0.002). The test for linearity was also significant (p = 0.001). There were no statistically significant associations of levels of glycemic control with alpha-blocker, beta-blocker or diuretic use. Bivariate analysis showed a significant correlation of hemoglobin A1c with neuropathy but not with patient age, duration of diabetes, alpha-blockers, beta-blockers or diuretics. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that hemoglobin A1c was an independent predictor of erectile function score (p<0.001) even after adjusting for peripheral neuropathy, which was also an independent predictor (p = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS: Our data add to the growing body of literature suggesting that erectile dysfunction correlates with the level of glycemic control. Peripheral neuropathy and hemoglobin A1c but not patient age were independent predictors of erectile dysfunction. 相似文献

The threat of a new influenza pandemic has led to renewed interest in dose-sparing vaccination strategies such as intradermal immunization and the use of adjuvanted vaccines. In this study we compared the quality and kinetics of the serum antibody response elicited in mice after one or two immunizations with a split influenza A (H3N2) virus, using three different low-dose vaccination strategies. The mice were divided into four groups, receiving either a low-dose vaccine (3 microg hemagglutinin [HA]) intradermally or intramuscularly with or without aluminum adjuvant or the normal human vaccine dose (15 microg HA) intramuscularly. Sera were collected weekly after vaccination and tested in the hemagglutination inhibition, virus neutralization, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The antibody responses induced after intradermal or intramuscular low-dose vaccinations were similar and lower than those observed after the human vaccine dose. However, low-dose adjuvanted vaccine elicited a serum antibody response comparable to that elicited by the human dose, although the second immunization did not result in any increase in cross-reactive hemagglutination inhibition antibodies, and the peak serum antibody response was observed 1 week later than in the other vaccination groups. Our murine data suggest that the low-dose intradermal route does not show any obvious advantage over the low-dose intramuscular route in inducing a serum antibody response and that none of the low-dose vaccination strategies is as effective as intramuscular vaccination with the normal human dose. However, the low-dose aluminum-adjuvanted vaccine could present a feasible alternative in case of limited vaccine supply. 相似文献

Please cite this paper as: Pedersen et al. (2011) Matrix‐M adjuvanted virosomal H5N1 vaccine confers protection against lethal viral challenge in a murine model. Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses 5(6), 426–437. Background A candidate pandemic influenza H5N1 vaccine should provide rapid and long‐lasting immunity against antigenically drifted viruses. As H5N1 viruses are poorly immunogenic, this may require a combination of immune potentiating strategies. An attractive approach is combining the intrinsic immunogenicity of virosomes with another promising adjuvant to further boost the immune response. As regulatory authorities have not yet approved a surrogate correlate of protection for H5N1 vaccines, it is important to test the protective efficacy of candidate H5N1 vaccines in a viral challenge study. Objectives This study investigated in a murine model the protective efficacy of Matrix‐M adjuvanted virosomal influenza H5N1 vaccine against highly pathogenic lethal viral challenge. Methods Mice were vaccinated intranasally (IN) or intramuscularly (IM) with 7·5 μg and 30 μg HA of inactivated A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (H5N1) (NIBRG‐14) virosomal adjuvanted vaccine formulated with or without 10 μg of Matrix‐M adjuvant and challenged IN with the highly pathogenic A/Vietnam/1194/2004 (H5N1) virus. Results and conclusions IM vaccination provided protection irrespective of dose and the presence of Matrix‐M adjuvant, whilst the IN vaccine required adjuvant to protect against the challenge. The Matrix‐M adjuvanted vaccine induced a strong and cross‐reactive serum antibody response indicative of seroprotection after both IM and IN administration. In addition, the IM vaccine induced the highest frequencies of influenza specific CD4+ and CD8+ T‐cells. The results confirm a high potential of Matrix‐M adjuvanted virosomal vaccines and support the progress of this vaccine into a phase 1 clinical trial. 相似文献

Recent years' enzootic spread of highly pathogenic H5N1 virus among poultry and the many lethal zoonoses in its wake has stimulated basic and applied pandemic vaccine research. The quest for an efficacious, affordable and timely accessible pandemic vaccine has been high on the agenda. When a variant H1N1 strain of swine origin emerged as a pandemic virus, it surprised many, as this subtype is well-known to man as a seasonal virus. This review will cover some difficult vaccine questions, such as the immunological challenges, the new production platforms, and the limited supply and global equity issues. 相似文献
