Human B- and T-cell responses after immunization with a hexavalent PorA meningococcal outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
The PorA protein from Neisseria meningitidis, a potential vaccine candidate, induces human bactericidal antibodies which are serosubtype specific. We developed a hexavalent PorA outer membrane vesicle vaccine based on reference strain H44/76. This vaccine contains the six most prevalent PorA serosubtypes as found in many countries. We previously reported on the immune responses of 20 adult volu...
متن کاملHuman T-cell responses after vaccination with the Norwegian group B meningococcal outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
We have analyzed human T-cell responses in parallel with serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody levels after systemic vaccination with the Norwegian group B Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane vesicle (OMV) vaccine. Ten adult volunteers, with no or very low levels of serum IgG antibodies against meningococci, received three doses intramuscularly of the OMV vaccine (at weeks 0, 6, and 46). T-ce...
متن کاملAntigen-specific T-cell responses in humans after intranasal immunization with a meningococcal serogroup B outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
We have studied the ability of the Norwegian group B meningococcal outer membrane vesicle (OMV) vaccine, when administered intranasally without adjuvant, to induce T-cell responses in humans. A group of 12 vaccinees was immunized with four doses of OMVs (250 micrograms of protein/dose) at weekly intervals, and a single booster dose was given 5 months later. In vitro T-cell proliferation in resp...
متن کاملCross-reactivity of antibodies against PorA after vaccination with a meningococcal B outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
The cross-reactivity of PorA-specific antibodies induced by a monovalent P1.7-2,4 (MonoMen) and/or a hexavalent (HexaMen) meningococcal B outer membrane vesicle vaccine (OMV) in toddlers and school children was studied by serum bactericidal assays (SBA). First, isogenic vaccine strains and PorA-identical patient isolates were compared as a target in SBA, to ensure that the vaccine strains are r...
متن کاملSpecificity of human bactericidal antibodies against PorA P1.7,16 induced with a hexavalent meningococcal outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
A set of isogenic strains was constructed from the meningococcal reference strain H44/76 (B:15:P1.7,16) which differed only in their outer membrane protein (OMP) compositions. First, three isogenic strains lacking the expression of either class 3 (PorB) or class 4 (RmpM) OMP or both were obtained. Second, three isogenic class 1 OMP loop-deficient strains of H44/76 lacking the predicted loop 1 o...
