核酸疫苗Sj31BIN联合IL-12免疫抗日本血吸虫攻击感染的实验研究

目的：在证明日本血吸虫重组蛋白酶B核酸疫苗Sj31BIN具有抗生殖免疫作用的基础上，联合使用IL-12，观察IL-12是否具有佐剂效果。方法：分别用Sj31BIN IL-12和IL-12免疫Balb／C小鼠。攻击感染后6周计数成虫负荷和组织内虫卵数及肝脏表面虫卵结节数。结果：Sj31BIN IL-12免疫小鼠可降低成虫发育率。肝组织减卵率为59．74％；肠组织减卵率为59．60％；肝脏表面虫卵结节减少率为71．30％；单独使用IL-12有一定的免疫保护作用。结果：Sj31BIN IL-12能诱导小鼠产生较强的抗生殖免疫作用。

Experimental study on immunization of mice with nucleic acid vaccine Sj31BIN combining IL-12 against Schistosoma japonicum]

Based on the anti-fecundity effect of Schistosoma japonicum nucleic acid vaccine Sj31BIN, we combined Sj31BIN with IL-12 in vaccination of mice to explore the role of IL-12 as an adjuvant. The result showed that immunization of the mice with Sj31BIN + IL-12 led to a significant decrease in adult worm recovery, a liver egg count reduction of 59.74%, an intestine egg count reduction of 59.60% and a liver surface egg granuloma reduction of 71.3%. In addition, vaccination of the mice with IL-12 alone also led to some but not significant decrease in adult worm recovery and the egg counts. It is concluded that Sj31BIN plus IL-12 induces significant anti-fecundity immunity.
