The capsular polysaccharide of group B Neisseria meningitidis is composed of a linear homopolymer of alpha(2-8) N-acetyl neuraminic acid or polysialic acid (PSA) that is also carried by isoforms of the mammalian neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), which is especially expressed on brain cells during development. Here we analyzed the ability of antibodies induced by the candidate vaccine N-propionyl polysaccharide tetanus toxoid conjugate to recognize PSA-NCAM. We hyperimmunized mice to produce a pool of antisera and a series of immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibodies and evaluated their self-reactivity profile by using a battery of tests (immunoprecipitation, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence detection on live cells and human tissue sections) chosen for their sensitivity and specificity to detect PSA-NCAM in various environments. We also searched for the effects of the vaccine-induced antibodies in two functional assays involving cell lysis or cell migration. Although they were highly bactericidal, all the antibodies tested showed very low or no recognition of PSA-NCAM, in contrast to PSA-specific monoclonal antibodies used as controls. Different patterns of cross-reactions were revealed by the tests used, likely due to affinity and specificity differences among the populations of induced antibodies. Furthermore, neither cell lysis nor perturbation of migration was observed in the presence of the tested antibodies. Importantly, we showed that whereas enzymatic removal of PSA groups from the surfaces of live cells perturbed their migration, blocking them with PSA-specific antibodies was not functionally detrimental. Taken together, our data indicated that this candidate vaccine induced antibodies that could not demonstrate an immunopathologic effect. 相似文献

Ankylosing Spondylitis poses significant challenges in terms of early diagnosis, assessment of disease activity, predicting response to the treatment and monitoring radiographic progression. With better understanding of underlying immunopathogenesis, effective targeted therapies are available which improve symptoms, quality of life and possibly slow the radiographic progression. There has been a growing interest in the discovery of biomarkers for defining various aspects of disease assessment and management in Ankylosing Spondylitis. The C‐reactive protein and HLA‐B27 are most commonly used biomarkers. This review describes many other newer biomarkers which have potential clinical applications in this chronic inflammatory disease. 相似文献

Allelic diversity of the two transferrin binding protein B gene isotypes among a collection of Neisseria meningitidis strains representative of serogroup B disease: implication for the composition of a recombinant TbpB-based vaccine 下载免费PDF全文

The distribution of the two isotypes of tbpB in a collection of 108 serogroup B meningococcal strains belonging to the four major clonal groups associated with epidemic and hyperendemic disease (the ET-37 complex, the ET-5 complex, lineage III, and cluster A4) was determined. Isotype I strains (with a 1.8-kb tbpB gene) was less represented than isotype II strains (19.4 versus 80.6%). Isotype I was restricted to the ET-37 complex strains, while isotype II was found in all four clonal complexes. The extent of the allelic diversity of tbpB in these two groups was studied by PCR restriction analysis and sequencing of 10 new tbpB genes. Four major tbpB gene variants were characterized: B16B6 (representative of isotype I) and M982, BZ83, and 8680 (representative of isotype II). The relevance of these variants was assessed at the antigenic level by the determination of cross-bactericidal activity of purified immunoglobulin G preparations raised to the corresponding recombinant TbpB (rTbpB) protein against a panel of 27 strains (5 of isotype I and 22 of isotype II). The results indicated that rTbpB corresponding to each variant was able to induce cross-bactericidal antibodies. However, the number of strains killed with an anti-rTbpB serum was slightly lower than that obtained with an anti-TbpA(+)B complex. None of the sera tested raised against an isotype I strain was able to kill an isotype II strain and vice versa. None of the specific antisera tested (anti-rTbpB or anti-TbpA(+)B complex) was able to kill all of the 22 isotype II strains tested. Moreover, using sera raised against the C-terminus domain of TbpB M982 (amino acids 352 to 691) or BZ83 (amino acids 329 to 669) fused to the maltose-binding protein, cross-bactericidal activity was detected against 12 and 7 isotype II strains, respectively, of the 22 tested. These results suggest surface accessibility of the C-terminal end of TbpB. Altogether, these results show that although more than one rTbpB will be required in the composition of a TbpB-based vaccine to achieve a fully cross-bactericidal activity, rTbpB and its C terminus were able by themselves to induce cross-bactericidal antibodies. 相似文献

Comparison of Polymorphonuclear Cells from Healthy Donors and Differentiated HL-60 Cells as Phagocytes in an Opsonophagocytic Assay Using Antigen-Coated Fluorescent Beads 下载免费PDF全文

Polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) from healthy donors and differentiated HL-60 cells were compared in an opsonophagocytic assay using fluorescent latex beads coated with Streptococcus pneumoniae polysaccharide conjugates. Serum-specific phagocytosis was efficiently mediated by both sources of cells, as measured by flow cytometry, but the mean number of beads ingested per cell was three- to fivefold higher when PMNs were used than when HL-60 cells were used. Nevertheless, differentiated HL-60 cells could be a convenient and standardized source of cells to evaluate the functionality of specific antibodies to vaccine candidates as a coating on fluorescent beads. 相似文献

Because the meningococcal transferrin receptor was shown to elicit bactericidal and protective antibodies in laboratory animals, we undertook a study of the protective role of each of the polypeptides within the Tbp1-Tbp2 complex. We developed a procedure to purify from Neisseria meningitidis B16B6 the two proteins in milligram amounts and raised specific antisera in rabbits and mice. Only antisera specific for Tbp2 displayed bactericidal activity against the parent strain. Mice immunized with purified Tbp2 survived a lethal challenge to a similar degree as animals immunized with the Tbp1-Tbp2 complex, demonstrating that Tbp2 played an important role in the protective activity observed with the complex. Both Tbp1- and Tbp2-specific antisera inhibited transferrin binding to the purified receptor in a solid-phase binding assay, suggesting that the antibodies were able to interact with the Tbp1 molecule only when it was removed from its membrane environment. Finally, Tbp2-specific immunoglobulins were able to lower the growth rate of the meningococci when human transferrin was their sole iron source. Therefore, in all four different systems tested, Tbp2 or antibodies specific for Tbp2 displayed biological characteristics close to those of the Tbp1-Tbp2 complex. This suggests that Tbp2 plays an important role in the protective activity of the complex, eliciting antibodies that are not only bactericidal but also inhibitory for meningococcal growth. 相似文献

The safety and immunogenicity of a group B meningococcal vaccine, consisting of N-propionylated (NPr) B capsular polysaccharide conjugated to tetanus toxoid, was tested for the first time, in 17 healthy male volunteers aged between 18 and 40 years. Four escalating dosages of vaccine were tested and each was given as three intramuscular injections at 4-week intervals. The vaccine was well tolerated and induced only mild and transient, dose-dependent, injection-site reactions. One month after the last injection, there was no evidence of the production of autoantibodies or antibodies binding to PSA-NCAM. The vaccine induced an increase in the pre-existing titres of IgM specific to B polysaccharide and NPr B polysaccharide. Moreover, it induced IgG antibodies specific to NPr B polysaccharide, which were undetectable before vaccination. However, no functional activity of vaccine-induced antibodies was demonstrated in bactericidal assays, opsonophagocytic tests or passive protection tests. 相似文献
