Intestinal immunoglobulin A responses in rabbits to a Salmonella typhi strain harboring a Shigella sonnei plasmid.

چکیده
Salmonella typhi 5076-IC, which contains a plasmid that encodes the form I antigen of Shigella sonnei and which expresses S. typhi 9 and 12 and S. sonnei form I antigens, was used to immunize rabbits via chronically isolated ileal loops. Intestinal immunoglobulin A activity was detected against S. typhi, S. sonnei form I, and S. typhi strain 5076-IC. Thus S. typhi 5076-IC can effectively elicit mucosal immunoglobulin A to both S. typhi and S. sonnei.

Construction of a potential bivalent vaccine strain: introduction of Shigella sonnei form I antigen genes into the galE Salmonella typhi Ty21a typhoid vaccine strain.
Shigella sonnei, an intestinal pathogen, produces a characteristic form I cell surface antigen now known to be plasmid encoded. We considered that the GalE Salmonella typhi Ty21a oral vaccine strain, highly effective against typhoid, might be modified so as to be protective also against shigellosis due to S. sonnei. The plasmid responsible for form I antigen synthesis was therefore conjugally t...

The ability of bivalent Salmonella typhi-Shigella sonnei vaccine strain 5076-1C to stimulate an intestinal immunoglobulin A response in humans was evaluated by detecting gut-derived, trafficking antibody-secreting cells (ASC) in peripheral blood. Following vaccination, an immunoglobulin A-ASC response to O antigens of S. typhi and S. sonnei was observed in 10 of 13 and 13 of 13 vaccine recipien...

An intranasal vaccine vector would elicit protective immunity at the respiratory mucosa, the portal of entry and the primary site for replication for measles virus (MV) and other respiratory viruses. In a murine model of pulmonary Shigella, we demonstrate here that a candidate-attenuated Shigella vaccine vector is safely tolerated in IFN-gamma deficient mice at an inoculum that is 1 million-fol...

Twelve thermosensitive H1 plasmids from strains of Salmonella typhi that had caused outbreaks of chloramphenicol-resistant typhoid fever in Vietnam, Thailand and India mediated citrate utilization (Cit+) in a prototrophic Escherichia coli K 1 2 strain but not in the S. typhi strains from which they were derived. Four HI plasmids from a similar outbreak in Mexico diflered from the Far Eastern pl...
متن کاملIsoenzyme analysis of typhoid-Shigella and Escherichia-Shigella hybrid vaccines and their parental strains.
Isoenzyme analysis can be used to measure phenotypic changes and to characterize bacterial strains. The use of isoenzyme analysis to characterize bacterial hybrid vaccine strains that were prepared for human vaccination is described in this report. The hybrid vaccine strains were two lots of Salmonella typhi-Shigella sonnei vaccine, two lots of Escherichia coli-Shigella flexneri vaccine, and th...
