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 کاملImmunoproteomic identification of immunodominant antigens independent of the time of infection in Brucella abortus 2308-challenged cattle
Brucellosis is a vital zoonotic disease caused by Brucella, which infects a wide range of animals and humans. Accurate diagnosis and reliable vaccination can control brucellosis in domestic animals. This study examined novel immunogenic proteins that can be used to detect Brucella abortus infection or as an effective subcellular vaccine. In an immunoproteomic assay, 55 immunodominant proteins f...
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 کاملComparison of abortion and infection after experimental challenge of pregnant bison and cattle with Brucella abortus strain 2308.
A comparative study was conducted using data from naive bison (n = 45) and cattle (n = 46) from 8 and 6 studies, respectively, in which a standardized Brucella abortus strain 2308 experimental challenge was administered during midgestation. The incidence of abortion, fetal infection, uterine or mammary infection, or infection in maternal tissues after experimental challenge was greater (P < 0.0...
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...
