Immunogenicity evaluation of plasmids encoding Brucella melitensis Omp25 and Omp31 antigens in BALB/c mice
Objective(s): Vaccination is one of the most effective means to protect humans and animals against brucellosis. Live attenuated Brucella vaccines are considered effective in animals but they may be potentially infectious to humans, so it is vital to improve the immunoprotective effects and safety of vaccines against Brucella. This study was designed to evaluate the immunogenicity of DNA vaccine...
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...
متن کاملProtection of BALB/c mice against pathogenic Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis by vaccination with recombinant Omp16
Objective(s): Prevention of the globally spread zoonotic infection, brucellosis which affects an extensive range of hosts is still challenging researchers. There are no approved vaccines for the prevention of human disease and those used for animal brucellosis have adverse properties, which limit their application. We investigated the immunological and protective effec...
متن کاملAmplification, cloning and expression of Brucella melitensis bp26 gene (OMP28) isolated from Markazi province (Iran) and purification of Bp26 Protein
Brucellosis is a debilitative disease that imposes costs on both economy and society. It is shown that although the vaccine can prevent abortion, it does not provide complete protection against infection. In Iran, Brucella melitensis is a common causative agent for brucellosis and BP26 protein of this bacterium having a good antigenesity and an important vaccine candidate. In this study B. meli...
متن کاملEvaluation of the immunogenicity and the protective efficacy in mice of a DNA vaccine encoding SP41 from Brucella melitensis.
INTRODUCTION Brucella melitensis is a facultative intracellular Gram-negative bacterial pathogen that may enter the host via ingestion or inhalation, or through conjunctiva or skin abrasions. Some Brucella spp surface proteins (SPs) play an important role in bacterial adhesion and invasion and thus represent targets for the host immune system. Brucella spp surface protein with apparent molecula...
