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...
متن کاملImmunization with cytomegalovirus gB protein produced by the Baculovirus Expression Vector System to elicit humoral immune response in BALB/c mice
Introduction: Due to the role of neutralizing antibodies which can prevent human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection, most of the efforts have been focused on designing vaccines capable of eliciting protective humoral immunity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibody response of BALB/c mice to a truncated HCMV glycoprotein B produced in insect cells using Baculovirus Expression Vector ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Glycoprotein B DNA Immuniation on HSV-l Lethal Infection of BALB/c Mice
Background and Aims: Glycoprotein B (gB) is among the most important immunogenic proteins of HSV-1 that is now being used as recombinant vaccine to induce protectively against the virus. It is believed that gB is responsible for induction of neutralizing antibody and up to 90% of CTL (Cytotoxic T Cell) activity against HSV-1 in some haplotypes. Methods: In the present study the antibody titer ...
متن کاملDesign of cocktail peptide vaccine against Cytomegalovirus infection
Objective(s):Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) remains a major morbidity and mortality cause in immuno suppressed patients. Therefore, significant effort has been made towards the development of a vaccine. In this study, the expression of the pp65 and gB fusion peptides and Fc domain of mouse IgG2a as a novel delivery system for selective uptake of antigens by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in Pich...
متن کاملAn Endogenous Immune Adjuvant Released by Necrotic Cells for Enhancement of DNA Vaccine Potency
Background: Improving vaccine potency in the induction of a strong cell-mediated cytotoxicity can enhance the efficacy of vaccines. Necrotic cells and the supernatant of necrotic tumor cells are attractive adjuvants, on account of their ability to recruit antigen-presenting cells to the site of antigen synthesis as well as its ability to stimulate the maturation of dendritic cells. Objective: T...
