چکیده

background: uropathogenic escherichia coli (upec) are major bacterial agent of urinary tract infection (uti). this infection is more prevalent among women because approximately half of all women will experience a uti in their life-time and near a quarter of them will have a recurrent infection within 6–12 months. iuta protein has a major role during upec pathogenesis and consequently infection. therefore, the aim of current study was assessment of iuta protein roles as a potential candidate antigen based for vaccine designing. methods: this survey was conducted during 2014-2015 at the university of tehran, iran. chromosomal dna extracted from e. coli 35218 and iuta gene amplified by pcr. the amplicon cloned to pvax.1 eukaryotic expression vector and recombinant vector confirmed by sequencing. the iuta gene expression in genetic cassette of pvax/ iuta was evaluated in cos7 cell line by rt-pcr. then, injected to mouse model, which divided to three groups: injected with pvax vector, pbs and pvax/ iuta cassette respectively in two stages (d 1 and 14). one week after the second injection, bleeding from immunized mouse was performed and ifn-gamma was measured. results: the mice immunized with pvax /iuta showed increased interferon-γ responses significantly higher than two non-immunized groups (p<0.05). conclusion: cellular immune response has a main protective role against uti. raising this kind of immune response is important to preventing of recurrent infection. moreover, the current dna cassette will be valuable for more trying to prepare a new vaccine against uti.

Assessment of humoral immune response of a Cytomegalovirus DNA-vaccine candidate in BALB/c mice

Introduction: Glycoprotein B (gB) is the major antigen for induction of humoral responses against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) making it an attractive candidate for immune prophylaxis. In the present study, the humoral immune response of BALB/c mice to a truncated HCMV gB protein fused with GFP was evaluated. Methods: The truncated gB coding sequence was synthesized and cloned in pEGFPN1 eukary...

Cellular immunity survey against urinary tract infection using pVAX/fimH cassette with mammalian and wild type codon usage as a DNA vaccine

PURPOSE FimH (the adhesion fragment of type 1 fimbriae) is implicated in uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) attachment to epithelial cells through interaction with mannose. Recently, some studies have found that UPEC can thrive intracellularly causing recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI). Almost all vaccines have been designed to induce antibodies against UPEC. Yet, the humoral immune res...

Bioinformatics analysis and expression of a truncated form of Proteus mirabilis Pta protein as a novel vaccine target against urinary tract infection

Introduction: Pathogenic strains of Proteus mirabilis have important roles in urinary tract infection. Proteus toxic agglutinin (Pta) is amongst the most important virulence factors of P. mirabilis. This protein has a conserved sequence present in all the strains which could be evaluated as a novel vaccine target against them. The aims of the current study were the expression, purification and ...
