Assessment of humoral immune response of a Cytomegalovirus DNA-vaccine candidate in BALB/c mice
Introduction: Glycoprotein B (gB) is the major antigen for induction of humoral responses against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) making it an attractive candidate for immune prophylaxis. In the present study, the humoral immune response of BALB/c mice to a truncated HCMV gB protein fused with GFP was evaluated. Methods: The truncated gB coding sequence was synthesized and cloned in pEGFPN1 eukary...
متن کاملImmune cellular response to HPV: current concepts.
Although cellular immunity is essential for the elimination of human papillomavirus (HPV), the mechanisms involved are still poorly understood. We summarize the main mechanisms involved in cellular immune response to infections caused by HPV. Immunotherapies for HPV-related cancers require the disruption of T-cell response control mechanisms, associated with the stimulation of the Th1 cytokine ...
متن کاملImpairment of cytomegalovirus-specific cellular immune response as a risk factor for cytomegalovirus disease in transplant recipients.
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is common in most people but nearly asymptomatic in immunocompetent individuals. After primary infection the virus persists throughout life in a latent form in a variety of tissues, particularly in precursor cells of the monocytic lineage. CMV reinfection and occurrence of disease are associated with immunosuppressive conditions. Solid organ and bone marrow...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus infection enhances the immune response to influenza.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a β-herpesvirus present in a latent form in most people worldwide. In immunosuppressed individuals, CMV can reactivate and cause serious clinical complications, but the effect of the latent state on healthy people remains elusive. We undertook a systems approach to understand the differences between seropositive and negative subjects and measured hundreds of immune syst...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cellular Immune Response against Purified Antigen 85 in Patients with Tuberculosis
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains an important health problem throughout the world. Despite its significance in public health, mechanisms of protective immunity against Mycobacyerium Tuberculosis in humans have not yet been understood. Objective: To evaluate cell mediated immune response against purified Ag 85, PPD and Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in patients with tuberculosis and healthy tuber...
