Brucella abortus RB51 induces protection in mice orally infected with the virulent strain B. abortus 2308.
Brucellae are gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacteria which are one of the most common causes of abortion in animals. In addition, they are the source of a severe zoonosis. In this trial, we evaluated the effect of oral inoculation of Brucella abortus RB51 in mice against a challenge infection with B. abortus 2308. First, we showed that a gastric acid neutralization prior to the oral ...
متن کاملSafety of Brucella abortus strain RB51 in black bears.
In two studies conducted from October 1999 to March 2000 and December 2000 to April 2001, adult black bears (Ursus americanus) were orally inoculated with 1.4-3.1 x 10(10) colony-forming units (CFU) of Brucella abortus strain RB51 (SRB51, n=12) or 2 ml of 0.15 M NaCl solution (saline, n=11). We did not detect a difference (P>0.05) in antibody titers to SRB51 in serum obtained before vaccination...
متن کاملReduced interleukin-18 secretion in Brucella abortus 2308-infected murine peritoneal macrophages and in spleen cells obtained from B. abortus 2308-infected mice.
Th1 immune responses in which gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) production predominates are associated with protective immunity against intracellular bacteria. Following infection, interleukin-18 (IL-18) may contribute, in association with IL-12, to optimal IFN-gamma production. In this study, the secretion of IL-18 following intracellular infection with virulent Brucella abortus 2308 in CD-1 cultur...
متن کاملCaspase-2 Mediated Apoptotic and Necrotic Murine Macrophage Cell Death Induced by Rough Brucella abortus
Brucella species are Gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacteria that cause zoonotic brucellosis. Survival and replication inside macrophages is critical for establishment of chronic Brucella infection. Virulent smooth B. abortus strain 2308 inhibits programmed macrophage cell death and replicates inside macrophages. Cattle B. abortus vaccine strain RB51 is an attenuated rough, lipopolysa...
متن کاملProtective effects of recombinant Brucella abortus Omp28 against infection with a virulent strain of Brucella abortus 544 in mice
The outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Brucella (B.) abortus have been extensively studied, but their immunogenicity and protective ability against B. abortus infection are still unclear. In the present study, B. abortus Omp28, a group 3 antigen, was amplified by PCR and cloned into a maltose fusion protein expression system. Recombinant Omp28 (rOmp28) was expressed in Escherichia coli and was t...
