Immunization against natural Helicobacter pylori infection in nonhuman primates.
Helicobacter pylori infection is widespread in some breeding groups of a rhesus monkey colony (71% H. pylori positive by 1 year), and the rate of seroconversion is also high. As a result, these groups can be used to test the safety and efficacy of an anti-H. pylori vaccine. Nine-month-old female animals were randomized to receive either 8 mg of recombinant urease (rUre) plus 25 microg of Escher...
متن کاملPolynucleotide immunization of nonhuman primates against carcinoembryonic antigen.
In preparation for a Phase I trial of DNA immunization against carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in patients with colorectal carcinoma, we have produced a single plasmid DNA encoding CEA and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) under transcriptional regulatory control of two separate cytomegalovirus promoters within separate eukaryotic expression cassettes, designated pCEA/HBsAg. Hepatitis B surfac...
متن کاملAntibacterial activities of Galla rhois extracts against Helicobacter pylori infection
In this study, a medicinal plant, Galla rhois (GR), was examined and screened for its anti-Helicobacter pylori activity. Galla rhois was extracted with 70% ethanol. Inhibitory zone tests, as in vitro assays, and an in vivo study using a Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) model were performed. The safety of the GR extract was then evaluated in an animal study. The Galla rhois extract demon...
متن کاملProtection against experimental Helicobacter pylori infection after immunization with inactivated H. pylori whole-cell vaccines.
The protective effect of therapeutic oral immunization with homologous and heterologous formalin-inactivated Helicobacter pylori cells given together with cholera toxin as an adjuvant was evaluated with C57BL/6 mice infected with H. pylori Sydney strain 1 (SS1). The bacteria used for immunization were strains that were either homologous or heterologous with regard to the O antigen (i.e., the Le...
متن کاملNatural competence promotes Helicobacter pylori chronic infection.
Animal models are important tools for studies of human disease, but developing these models is a particular challenge with regard to organisms with restricted host ranges, such as the human stomach pathogen Helicobacter pylori. In most cases, H. pylori infects the stomach for many decades before symptoms appear, distinguishing it from many bacterial pathogens that cause acute infection. To mode...
