an hiv-1 mini vaccine induced long-lived cellular and humoral immune responses

چکیده
memory formation is the most important aspect of a vaccine which can guarantee long-lasting immunity and protection. the main aim of the present study was to evaluate the memory immune responses after immunization with a mini vaccine. mice were immunized with human immunodeficiency virus-1 p24-nef fusion peptide and then cellular and humoral immune responses were evaluated. in order to determine long-lived memory, immune responses were monitored for 20 weeks after final immunization. the results showed that the candidate vaccine induced proliferation and cytotoxic t lymphocyte responses and shifted cytokine patterns to t helper-1 profile. evaluation of humoral immune responses also showed an increase in total peptide specific-igg titer and a shift to igg2a humoral response. monitoring of immune responses at weeks 4, 12 and 20 after last immunization showed that immunologic parameters have been sustained for 20 weeks. our findings support the notion that long-lived memory responses were achieved using a mini vaccine immunization.

متن کاملCharacterization of Immune Responses Induced by Combined Clade-A HIV-1 Recombinant Adenovectors in Mice
Background: Numerous evidences indicate that in some HIV-1 positive patients, the humoral and cellular immune responses are induced against HIV-1 proteins and this is inversely related to the progress of infection. Objective: The aim of this study was the evaluation of the Adenovectors containing HIV genes in induction of immune responses in mice. Methods: The HIV-1 genes including gag p24, rev...
متن کاملA quadrivalent HPV vaccine induces humoral and cellular immune responses in WHIM immunodeficiency syndrome.
WHIM-syndrome is an inherited immunodeficiency disorder with abnormal susceptibility to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and diseases. We determined safety and immunogenicity to a quadrivalent HPV vaccine in WHIM-syndrome by detection of HPV-specific antibodies and lymphoproliferation. In virus-like-particle (VLP)-ELISA, a WHIM patient showed antibody titers up to 400 for HPV-6/11/16/18, wh...
متن کاملA novel alphavirus vaccine encoding prostate-specific membrane antigen elicits potent cellular and humoral immune responses.
PURPOSE Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an attractive target for active immunotherapy. Alphavirus vaccines have shown promise in eliciting immunity to tumor antigens. This study investigated the immunogenicity of alphavirus vaccine replicon particles (VRP) that encode PSMA (PSMA-VRP). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Cells were infected with PSMA-VRP and evaluated for PSMA expression and fola...
متن کاملImmune activation alters cellular and humoral responses to yellow fever 17D vaccine.
BACKGROUND Defining the parameters that modulate vaccine responses in African populations will be imperative to design effective vaccines for protection against HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, and dengue virus infections. This study aimed to evaluate the contribution of the patient-specific immune microenvironment to the response to the licensed yellow fever vaccine 17D (YF-17D) in an African cohor...
متن کاملComparison of humoral and cellular immune responses to inactivated swine influenza virus vaccine in weaned pigs.
Humoral and cellular immune responses to inactivated swine influenza virus (SIV) vaccine were evaluated and compared. Fifty 3-week-old weaned pigs were randomly divided into the non-vaccinated control group and vaccinated group containing 25 pigs each. Pigs were vaccinated intramuscularly twice with adjuvanted UV-inactivated A/SW/MN/02011/08 (MN/08) H1N2 SIV vaccine at 6 and 9 weeks of age. Who...
